AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

First I had a type of belief system like nothing wrong can happen to me because Maa is with me, now it’s like anything can happen to me, but I believe Maa is with me and about fear I have fear like fear for maintaining position in class, fear like what others will think about me in each steps, fear like fear to indulge in a conflict or the recent issues, fear like what if I died living an ordinary life. ☺️🌼🚶🏼‍♂️🦋[…]

The funny thing is that I just became a shameless person before entering the class. If, for any reason, the teacher says you are a donkey, yes, sir, I am; but now kindly teach me or correct me.

I don’t know why you switched from nothing can happen to everything can happen. Surely the Divine Grace protects; else this world would have been destroyed 10 times over by human beings. Of course, the Divine Grace does not boast about how much and how many times it has saved and helped every creature, regardless of whether they believe in the Grace or not. But the action of Grace does not mean that it will make our life easy and comfortable, take away all the challenges needed for our growth and progress. If we understand this subtle but important difference, then we shall actually see the working of the Divine Grace much more often. And yet the Divine Grace will always exceed all that we can ever conceive or imagine about it. 

As to what people say, it is generally best to ignore it. Human beings are experts in displaying their ignorance. However, if there is someone whom one trusts as having some wisdom and love, then one should pay attention and be keen to learn from him and progress with the criticism, if any. This is what I would suggest to you for now.

Affectionately,  

Alok Da

I need to ask you something regarding teaching. There are some students in my class who don’t listen, who are sort of rebels. So whenever you tell them something, either they won’t listen, or they will start arguing. How to tackle these types of students? 📚🌱[…]

There are three main reasons for this phenomenon in adolescents.

1. Partly it is the nature of the Age we live in, an Age of exceptional freedom and equality. Hence the old norms and patterns are gone and none of the old methods such as fear, punishment etc work. 

2. There is lack of self discipline in the students as well as the teachers. The more a teacher exercises self-mastery the more he or she automatically exercises control over the students. 

3. The subject itself may not be interesting or else presented in an interesting way that connects with the students. One should be creative and try to find better ways of engaging them with interesting examples.

Sometimes I find myself in situations where I have done nothing wrong, yet someone falsely blames or slanders me, and even those in authority seem to believe it. Personally, I do not feel the urge to defend or prove myself by explaining, because it seems to me that the person has already decided their position. 🕊️🌸[…]

Silence is always better when people try to insult you. Speaking up, retaliating over personal insults drags us down to the level of the person who is insulting. We unwittingly identify with the other person and sully our consciousness. ..

1. As we discussed, I haven’t yet been picked up by the Grace of Mother Mirra in any manner that is transparent to me. I aspire and I pray to the Divine Feminine, the Shakti of the Brahman, as my Mother and ask Her for grace and consecrate what I can to Her. Will this do as an entirely parallel or transient gesture until I have a more specific opening to Mother Mira? 🌸🌱🙏🏻 […]
