AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I witnessed some of Shri Krishna’s leela (divine play) while fully awake. It happened on the afternoon of the 12th; as I sat there, I felt the presence of Premanand Ji Maharaj hovering over my head, and his image appeared within my mindโ€”even though I hadn’t watched any of his videos recently. ๐Ÿฆšโœจ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป […]

Later that night, while sitting quietly, I suddenly sawโ€”at my Ajna Chakra (the point between the eyebrows)โ€”a blue-complexioned boy with long, curly hair. He was bare-chested, wearing only a loincloth-like garment, and was playing with a bat and ball; in that moment, I felt a sense of joy.

Then, on the afternoon of the 13th, I was sleeping and had a dream. I was in a nearby field when someone came and told me, “Shri Krishna has arrived in the adjacent field.” I ran over and saw a youthโ€”looking about 16 to 20 years oldโ€”with a completely blue body, long curly hair, a muscular physique, and no shirt (wearing only a dhoti-like garment). He and a small child were running around a Khejri tree. I tried to chase them, but they wouldn’t stop. Suddenly, he halted, looked at me, and embraced me tightly. I could hardly believe that Shri Krishna was hugging me; he even kissed my forehead. When I woke up, I was enveloped in a profound sense of peace.

Was it truly Shri Krishna, Dada? How did this happenโ€”His darshan, the leela He showed, the embrace, and the kiss? How is this possible, Dada

Why doubt? Surely Sri Krishna can come where and when He pleases. Why look for a logical answer for his granting the Grace? The Grace is Grace because it does not depend upon outer conditions. Though in the dream sequence itself, the whole thing is clear. You chased and ran after him and he turned back and gave you his embrace, which means you belong to him and he is drawing you nearer and nearer. What greater assurance would one want than Sri Krishna giving you an embrace of recognition and acceptance.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I know I have asked this before but the answer from you intimated me. I want to do the actual practices of Integral Yoga every day on a day-to-day basis. How to aspire? Reading the works that you directed me to seems to demand a lot of time before I can actually get on the ground for practice. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป […]

Aspiration is something that rises from the heart. It can take the form of seeking for the Divine, a longing that grows and turns it into a single aim, a cry that takes the form of a wordless prayer. It is a fire that burns in the heart, gradually spreading from there to the…
