If faith in the Divine can greatly diminish the possibility of the thing feared, doesn’t this faith come in the way of spiritual progress, because otherwise, the danger which was thus prevented (by faith), could have made the person stronger, if allowed to happen🫤?

But why seek danger and court difficulties? That is never the advice given by anyone. The advice is that if danger and difficulties comes, then instead of responding with fear one should have faith that everything will be fine and no harm will come. The Divine does not want us to progress through suffering, difficulties and struggle and pain. He would rather want us to progress joyously and with gladness. This comes through trust in the Divine. The Divine does not send difficulties to make us progress. He sends us peace, light, love, strength to handle difficulties as well as progress.

Dada, there is a professor at IISC who is a sadhaka in the sampradaya of Madhvacharya, and he says that, according to him, the way to find your Swadharma is to do what you can persistently despite failure.

It is not a question of good or bad from a moral point of view. But drinking alcohol is certainly harmful for the physical, as well as psychological and I would even say spiritual health. The list of physical problems is too long and generally too well known to elucidate. …

Yesterday suddenly realised during my prayer with my mother that the seat of the Psychic Being is Highar Vital, in the Hridaya Chakra. Initially, I feel Peace, Bliss and Delight up to the Vishudhi Centre. Suddenly realised that my heart has received The Mother’s Peace and is spreading to all the centre of my all the inner parts and similar to the mother light also. Suddenly feel that the heart centre is doing everything. Alok da, is our Sadhana going in the right direction? Please guide me. 🪷✨💖🕯️

Yes absolutely, the psychic being is behind the heart centre and when open and in the front then all becomes easy and natural.
