AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Kindly put more words into the below quote from Sri Aurobindo: If thy heart is troubled within thee, if for long seasons thou makest no progress, if thy strength faint and repine, remember always the eternal word of our Lover and Master🤨, “I will free thee from all sin and evil, do not grieve”.

It means that whatever be the inner or outer challenges and difficulties we must remember that the Divine has given the promise to man that if one surrenders oneself completely to the Lord then it is the Divine who takes complete responsibility of freeing him from ignorance which is the mother of evil, suffering, fear and sin. The quote is, as you may be aware, from the Gita.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

His two most important works has, one, the story of Savitri as a base; the second,..
