AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

In a recent Suicide case where man has demanded a huge maintenance from wife does it show the limitations of law where woman has all the rights for false allegations and exercise their rights in wrong manner? This is what it is said Marriage as an institution and Man nowdays are very afraid to become a part of such venture where is suppose women loose her interest or some other reason want to take divorce and ask for alimony and maintenance inspite of having job. Don’t to you think this marriage is more risky gamble for Man now since laws are also not very supportive for them? Is it better to avoid marriage😡?

Fear and suspicion are never a good counsel. Men and women both are known for low and cheap behaviors. This cannot change by law but by education. The very basis of marriage is wrong. Instead of love and respect and the sharing of joys and sorrows, mutual sacrifice, it has become more of a social arrangement, legal document and mutual adjustment and compromise, an institution from which the spirit of love has passed away leaving only a shell of social functions and common rituals or monetary interests to hold two people together. Hence it is being destroyed by the Time-Spirit. Legal systems are never a solution. They are temporary stop gap arrangements for a half evolved crude humanity. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Alok da, “There are others which the Gita does not raise or answer, for they were not pressingly present to the human mind of that day.” Has Sri Aurobindo raised and answered these beyond the Gita? 📙✒️🦚🪷[…]

There are a number of questions that the Gita doesn’t take up such as the purpose of creation and the goal of the collective human existence. The Gita does not resolve the mystery of evil, why it is there and its radical solution if any. It reconciles and synthesises Sankhya, yoga, gyana

I saw a dream where I was sightseeing the city of Kashi, but the streets were broader, larger, spacious and they were covered with flowers. Also, there was a strange hue and the population was very sparse, like in European cities. 🏙️🪷🐈🦚🕊️[…]

It is quite likely the Kashi of the future in the subtle physical world waiting for its hour. Though strangely the description feels also similar to the psychological atmosphere of Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry. Champaklal ji
