AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

When i go to outside in market and my college I don’t feel any positive vibes. I feel I am burning inside. Another I feel lonely inside and also I can’t tolerate the friend circle activities. The environment of college aren’t bearing myself. What should I do😏? I have face the same problem with my learning and examination.

It is understandable and even good that the usual run of the mill kind of activities do not appeal to you. To seek solitude is one of the signs of a budding spiritual life which requires to be nurtured. Too much mixing and socialising is certainly not good for it. 

However this need for solitude should not turn into a weakness and incapacity to face and see life in its various shades and hues. One need not participate in activities or discussions that one finds degrading but there is no need to run away or actively shun people.  Facing life with equanimity, going through its ups and downs with courage and face the inner and outer tests without fear is one of the best preparations for a more complete spiritual life itself. 

Affectionately,

Today I had a vivid dream where I was sitting with my late grandfather, offering to read to him from Savitri. In life, our bond was anchored in deep spiritual sharing, and just before his passing, he had instinctively offered his pranam upon seeing a photograph of Sri Aurobindo.🌙📖🕊️🙏🏻[…]

How long was this, that is, when did your grandfather pass away? I was wondering if there was an actual contact with him in the dream. It seems likely. In any case it is a most beautiful dream, possibly a dream vision.

But how long will she be in this Coma stage? Her body’s some part is working and some not…Means what we heard: some percent of her brain is working…. 🕯️🤲🌸🙏🏻

Surely she can pull through the Coma. But it is difficult to predict. Ultimately it depends upon what her soul choses. And the choice of the soul is not based on the attachments in the world. The soul is not attached to anyone in its journey through lives. Its only attachment is to the Divine Truth. Its only concern is about the progress it can make in its life. If there is still the possibility of some progress in this body then it may return. If not then it may make a different choice.
