AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

What steps can I take daily to increase my love for Krishna? I do 2 japa a day and some bhajan and read books of Sri Aurobindo and Maa. Apart from that my whole day is a day of indulgences which take me towards darkness. I can never keep habits for long. Do I don’t want to change bad enough that I’m not changing. Regret and lament๐Ÿซฃ is all that I do after hasty decisions

First thing is to cut out regret and lament. That only saps energy and makes us feel increasingly underconfident and eventually give up effort.  

Next is to make Krishna a friend and treat him like a living being. How do you relate with a friend? You share everything with him. When you go out you take him along.  In case you go somewhere you let him know and stay connected.  Offer all your activities and actions to the Mother and Sri Aurobindo wherever you may be going and whatever you may be doing. As for Krishna take him along wherever you go as a bosom friend.  Write a daily diary to the Mother and remember Her first thing in the morning and last thing at night and as often as you can.

You will slowly see the difference. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I surrendered to the Mother and prayed to her to give me love for my in-laws and thus keep me safe by not letting anger and frustration get the better of me. I tried to gather Courage and Faith – and thought “Mother is there, She is looking after it and I need not worry”. ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿป๐Ÿง“๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘ต๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿชท[…]

This is always the magic of Her Grace. To invoke Her in all situations and circumstances of life is what is needed rather than trying to avoid. It is the inner change that is the main thing. The outer follows as a consequence.ย …
