Dear Da, I'm a single child. I always have this question: why don't I have a sibling with whom I can share things? Also, my parents have a greater realisation of the Divine, so whenever I try something out of spirituality or try to get mixed with society, they get to know things from within and always doubt my intentions and try to keep me under their influence. 😢🌸👨🏻‍👩🏻‍👧🏻‍👦🏻🍃[...]

And I always agree with what my parents say, but there’s some limit, right? I don’t want this thing da. Like, if I want to share something, there’s no one. If I want to mix with people, they doubt. What should I do? I always question that why me only? I’ve told The Mother that from now on, you are my friend. But she’s also Divine, so she never supports me with material things. I’m Human, I also want some life.

First thing is to discover the unique person you are, your unique goals, strengths and weaknesses, rather than comparing yourself with anyone or seeking validation from parents. Discover your own life and you are likely to find more friends. As to the Divine, He is no doubt the best friend and He does speak to us in the quietude of the heart and through the language of outer events and inner states.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

All that we will have to do then is to turn towards Him …

The difference between thought and action is a most common difficulty. Its reason is not that the physical mind gets into an obsessive mode. It creates difficulty in decision, an indecisiveness because the mind wants to know with certainty that the decision is correct and the action will bring the desired results. But the truth is that there is ….

Yes these (going out in the sun will cause headache) are mental constructions. There are several others such as catching cold if one eats curd, and many ideas of this nature. They have neither scientific nor spiritual support. Their strength lies mainly in the power of …
