AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Alok da how to get rid of these right, wrong, true, false, mental conception, ideas, thought which create a strong barrier towards the divine. How to be widening and plastic in every part of our being? Is it any state where the right, wrong, true, false will vanishes? Then how to achieve this state because in this narrowness I feel captive inside a cave😥.

It is neither possible nor advisable to drop off the dualities by a mental understanding that there is a higher state where they cease to exist. One should instead strive towards this higher state and the dualities will progressively drop off when we are sincerely surrendered to the Divine Mother in all our parts. Dualities stem from the ego which acts according to inbuilt preferences. As the ego progresses towards the true surrender of desires, preferences in favour of obeying the Divine Will, we automatically begin to grow into the Divine Unity. Until then we should practice equanimity and nishkama karma while making a wide, general rules for our action. To begin with we can say that all that leads us and the world at large towards Truth and Light and Peace and Harmony, towards the Divine is good and all that tends towards falsehood and Ignorance and agitation, anger, excitement, disorder and division is not good. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Yes. Pressure upon the crown takes place before the full opening.

Many, many, many experiences come. It is best not to get too much into analysing, understanding them else one can easily get distracted or the ego may get puffed up. It is like getting delayed by the scenery on the way. Stay focused on giving oneself more and more to the Divine, growing in faith, sincerity, love and surrender,…

Someone asked me whether Sri Aurobindo has adopted the ideas from Hegel and Kant. How can I reply to him? Please help me and refer to some books.  📚🧠✨

People who make such remarks are unfortunately very poorly informed about either Bergson and Kant let alone Sri Aurobindo whom they have certainly not read. 

Sri Aurobindo’s major works include two treatises on the Vedas including a deep and intricate study of Vedic philology, the major Upanishads with a detailed commentary on the Isha and Kena, detailed essays on the Gita, Foundations of Indian Culture. His two most important works has, one, the story of Savitri as a base; the second,..
