AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Hello sir. Since childhood, I have remained deprived of true love and real concern for me, even from my parents and siblings. Now, my married life has turned into a horrible situation. How to overcome such bitter experiences of life and become a true servant of the mother and Sri Aurobindo? 💗🌸🙏🏼

Take all this as a Grace. If you look closely, the situations are actually serving the purpose of taking you closer and closer to your true destiny, the Divine. Those who are happy in the world as it is today are like souls in the kindergarten of life, busy with toys and the basics. But when one is ready for the higher truth, then either one naturally loses interest in them, or they are taken away so that we may turn our face towards the future. Human love is anyways a weak and poor substitute for the Divine Love which alone is true and lasting.

With Her Love

It is the penultimate stage of sadhana somewhat like Sri Krishna’s final injunction to Arjuna, sarvadharmanparityajya, to give up all Dharmas and take refuge in Him alone. Give up trying is not same as do not try. It means that one has tried, possibly tried hard but nothing much or at least decisive happened. It is then …

​As you mentioned that instead of taking scriptures literally, one should understand their true essence, I have one final question in this regard:​ What is the true spiritual essence or underlying message behind the verse (12.13.13) that speaks of donating the Srimad Bhagavatam on a golden throne on Bhadrapada Purnima? 📖🪷🔍 […]

That is exactly what I am trying to tell you. If we take every verse of the Srimadabhagawatam as if it is originally said and hence to be practiced and followed literally then we fall into the same trap as the Mullahs. Each Scripture has seen additions made by unscrupulous minds for vested personal interests. Srimadabhagawatam is no exception. Do you really believe that after all the beautiful uplifting things spoken of in ..
