AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How to deal with people with whom you are connected in your daily life, you cannot avoid them but they are completely dilution and self centered and they can go on and on as how good they are, how superior they are than others and blah blah now how to react and they expect you to indulge in a conversation and one has nothing more to add? Sometimes I am shocked as I wonder are they even listening to what they are saying🙄? These type of new people I just don’t indulge more I keep any relations but what to do with the ones whom The Mother has put around you?

I fully understand and have gone through this phase in the beginning of the Yoga. Used to switch off inwardly, directing the consciousness to concentration in the heart centre on Her Presence, speaking very little, only indispensable conversation, and looking upon all with a smile feeling amused at how one can live with such a state. This is what I would recommend to you as well. A deep samata of inner indifference and calling peace are additional helpful processes to deal with these situations.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
