AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

1. If the supramental world 🌏is separate, does that mean the earth will remain unchanged?

Supermind is everywhere and in everything. In its own domain its action is pure and perfect, but upon earth it has so far acted from behind the veil of ignorance. But now that it has come into the earthly play freely, it would mean a complete change of earthly life, shedding its ignorance and transforming into the Life Divine here and not elsewhere. 

2. Where are Pavitra Da and Amrita Da and all other disciples who lived with Sri Aurobindo and The Mother? Are they in their supramental bodies?

They are in the subtle physical Ashram, the abode of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother from where they are watching over the earth and humanity leading it closer and closer to its divine destiny. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Bhaiya, Rishi Panchami fast is coming up, and I read the story behind it. Honestly, I found it quite absurd. The story talks about a woman unknowingly breaking certain rules during menstruation, cooking food that her husband eats, and then both of them facing severe karmic consequences in their next life. 🪷🙏🏻 […]

Yes, all these things have been added much later and have no authority in the main  Scriptures. It is a story added in some of the Puranas, mainly I suppose to enforce rules of hygiene for women during the menstrual period. This was one of the ways to instil certain hygiene practices through fear. It has no meaning now. Most of the fasts …

How should we understand deities like Subrahmanyeshwara (Skanda/Murugan) and Vinayaka (Ganesha)? Are they individual divine beings, cosmic powers of the One Divine, or symbols of different aspects of consciousness? How should an aspirant in Sri Aurobindo’s Yoga relate to them in practice? 🙏🏻✨

The four original gods, Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh and, behind them all Krishna, are, in their origin, the four aspects of the One Divine, named in Indian spiritual thought as Sacchidananda. Sat (सत) is infinite existence from which Brahma ji emerges. Chit is Chit-tapas, Consciousness and Force from which Hari or Vishnu ji and Hara or Shiv ji …
