AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How can I develop unwavering faith😕? Living away from Pondicherry, I don’t have access to a Mother’s center, and I have no communication with other devotees except through social media. This makes me feel very isolated on my spiritual journey

I can understand this genuine need. Perhaps it is one of the reasons why we see certain internet groups that have come up where one can share words of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.  If you wish I could put your whatsapp number (in case you share) into one of the groups. 

At the same time you could start a little study circle at your place if there are some devotees or interested people around. 

It also helps if you travel to the Ashram here, in Pondicherry, and get recharged and return back to your place,  at least once a year. It helps in the blossoming of faith and devotion and in the growth of the psychic being. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

That is why Sri Aurobindo and The Mother speak of a higher and lower Perfection. The higher Perfection refers to the soul’s Perfection, the spiritual growth from a state of Ignorance to a state of Truth and Vastness.

Dear Sir, why is that the ego anti-divine? Why does it is not naturally surrenders to the divine? Why is there division and a distance from the divine? Why does it have to die ultimately for the complete spiritualization? 🪞🌱🙏🏼

Ego is neither Divine nor anti-Divine. It is a part of human nature whose purpose is to create the sense of individuality. Individuality is a necessary element in human evolution. Its purpose is to create the sense of freewill, within certain limits of course. Freewill in this context simply means that the individual must chose from a number of forces impacting upon the person. The choices may be aligned to our deeper truth, swabhava and swadharma, …
