AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sir, I had one more question. In your lectures, I heard you mention Bamakhepa Ji a couple of times—specifically, you recounted an incident where someone asked Bamakhepa Ji about Sri Aurobindo, and he replied that Sri Aurobindo is seated at the very pinnacle of all siddhis (spiritual attainments). 📖🙏🏻[…]

I tried searching on Perplexity and DeepSeek, but I couldn’t find anything linking Bamakhepa Ji and Sri Aurobindo. Could you please tell me where you read this or which book it is from?

This story was told to me (and many others) by Sri Chottenarayan Sharma, a renowned and revered scholar of Sri Aurobindo who was deeply conversant with many scriptures. He had a phenomenal memory, profound occult experiences and had traveled widely. 

The verification of this event comes in a casual conversation with Sri Aurobindo in one of the evening talks. Of course, the name of the yogi is not taken there. 

Wikipedia pages do not generally document these things, which are often passed off as casual conversations. Bama Khepa ji left his body in 1911. Sri Aurobindo was a rising star on the Indian Revolutionary Scene. Perhaps this question must have been asked in 1909 after the Uttarpara Speech.

Affectionately, 

Alok Da

I wanted to ask you about the right amount and timing of sleep. Whenever I wake up, I often find myself confused between two thoughts: either I feel that I should sleep a little longer because my sleep is not complete, or, if I do go back to sleep, I later feel that I have wasted my time because of laziness. 😴🌅⏰🙏🏻 […]

The average sleep requirements vary between 6 to 9 hours with 7 hours as a good common ground. 

The best timings are to sleep an hour or two before midnight and wake up an hour or so before sunrise, say 10 pm to 5 am. It is best to keep a regular timing. It is also helpful not to wake up in the morning and go to sleep again unless one is sleep deprived….

I am grateful for your guidance in this situation. Alok da, I feel that remaining silent, offering the hurt to the Divine, and praying for peace within myself and others would be easier for me.  But I have one doubt: what if the other person interprets my silence as weakness and continues to hurt or insult me? 🕊️🛡️🌿🙏🏻[…]

Those who indulge in hurting others are already hurtling downwards. They will continue to do what they are habituated to doing. Leave them to their destiny. By getting into a retaliatory fight with them you would only hurt yourself by delaying your journey and gravitating downwards towards them. Take their insults as …
