AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Why did Draupadi have to go through such humiliation? Why did Sri Krishna let it happen😠? 

Because the entire Kuru clan had to be destroyed. Draupadi was not only born to be an empress or a samragyi she was born with a purpose, she was incarnation of Kali and she was born to destroy the kuru clan and establish Dharma and she knew it.

She never blames Krishna, she never says, “oh Krishna you are my sakha and you made me go through all this”

She understands that eventually the great unfolding will be done. She has the last laugh in the end. But without this event it would have been impossible to tilt the balance definitively on the side of the Pandavas.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

The Divine is not there to fulfil our ignorant desires. Why push and force our ignorant will on God, who knows much better than us as to what is really good for our lives. While I understand the desire for motherhood in a woman, yet that cannot be made the goal and centre of our life.

What if the desire to hold on — the attachment — isn’t rooted in pride or the need to show ownership, but rather in a deep sense of care? A quiet protectiveness, born not from materialism, but from love. What if it’s not about clinging to possessions, but about holding close the people who matter most — not out of selfishness, but from the fear of loss?🤔🌼✨[…]

Yes, attachment and care are not necessarily a negative movement. They are indeed a form of Sattwic love which is certainly higher than the gross rajasic pride and attachment that wants things and people only for one’s …
