AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Sometimes we see how very common people around us progress in a very short span of time. That looks like a fairy tale. Why do such things happen😪? I know these are exceptions but still what could be the reasons for these?

How do we define common? We think that being born in poverty or a modest family with not much support or even not performing exceptionally in the school is being a common person. But the real criteria is within. A common man is he who is satisfied with the average ordinary life of comfort and material success. Most are indeed like that. But there are a few who nurture within them, often unknown to others, a flame of progress, an inbuilt faith in destiny and, dreams of a greater, happier life. Forces of the future respond to the persistent Idea and Faith within a person with which our destiny is shaped.

There are others who instinctively follow their inner lead, swadharma, rather than the pressure and demand from the Society and environment to perform and conform. They are ready to take the challenge and the risk. Even if they miss it prepares them for a future success.

Finally it is also a question of carry over from the past. Some lives are for preparation while some for reaping the fruits of past labour. Therefore one should always put in effort trusting destiny and God to give whatever and whenever He may choose to confer. 

There are ofcourse special destinies that apply to those chosen for a specific work in which case an incalculable force of Destiny or Grace acts in a way to fulfil the Divine Will in them regardless of any conditions. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

It means that we exist at several levels each with its corresponding identity. But the core identity, the permanent truth of our being, is that we are a portion of the Divine,…

You said that destruction was completely avoidable if those involved in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata responded to the Divine Will but it is also said that Divinity of an Avatar will be fully manifested when there is great darkness or adversity at the other side. Without Ravana how the Divinity of Rama would have been fully manifested and also without Kansa or Duryodhana how the Divinity of Krishna would have been fully manifested? There is also the story of Jai – Vijay so is it the leela of the Divine for his complete manifestation or the distortion in creation🤔?

Yes this is the other complimentary truth that the greater the darkness, individually as well as collectively, the greater the possibility of Light. India is a classic example of a civilisation plunged into darkness for …
