Home » Dreams » Yesterday I had a dream that I and my two friends who were practicing yoga, all three of us went to Gurudev and bowed down at his feet, after that we left. As soon as we were about to go down the stairs, I looked at Gurudev and shouted loudly that I want to surrender completely, how should I do it, then he called me back and then he took me to the room, there he stood behind me and lifted me from behind and put his chin on my spine and I screamed 😱from within, then he brought me down again and said that your system was not aligned for super conscious power, then he had some black device, he took a photo from it and tried to show it to me, but it did not come in it, then he brought a book in his hand and taught me two things in it, the first was “Guru Govind Do Khade Kha Ke Lagi Pahi” and the second was “Those who follow the orders of others go backwards”. Then I said should I read that book, then he wrote on the top of that book 16th (meaning of which I did not understand). After that I said that I get orders during meditation, understand. I don’t know which is right and which is wrong, so he said pray, so I said I will hand it over to you, before doing that he said yes, then he bowed down at his feet and started to leave, I said it is dark, should I switch on the light of the room, but he refused, after that when I started to leave there were a lot of shoes lying there and I was in a hurry, my friends were waiting for me, where are my shoes, but I was not able to find my shoes. Apart from this, when I was with Gurudev, even then I felt inside me that he is waiting for me outside. And after waking up in the morning I was feeling that presence. What can be the meaning of this Dada?

By guru ji are you referring to Sri Aurobindo? It is quite an unlikely way of his relating. I think you should read Sri Aurobindo and the Mother instead of relying too much on guidance in the dream as it may be misleading. All these things such as surrender are beautifully explained from every angle in Their words. Somehow this dream doesn’t seem true to me. Some play of something false assuming a divine presence seems to be there.

Original question asked in Hindi: कल मुझे सपना आया की में और मेरे दो दोस्त जो योग कर रहे है हम तीनो गुरुदेव के पास गए और उनके चरणों में प्रणाम किया उसके बाद वापस रवाना हो गए जैसे ही हम सीढ़ीयो से नीचे उतरने वाले थे मैने गुरुदेव की तरफ देख के जोर से चिल्लाया की मुझे पूर्ण समर्पण करना है कैसे करू तो उन्होंने मुझे वापस बुला लिया और फिर वो मुझे रूम में ले गए वहा वो मेरे पीछे खड़े हो गए और मुझे उठाया पीछे से और मेरी रीड की हड्डी पे अपनी ठोड़ी लगाई और मेरे अंदर से चीख निकली फिर उन्होंने मुझे वापस नीचे उतारा और बोला की तुम्हारा सिस्टम aline नही था super conscient Power के लिए फिर उनके पास कोई ब्लैक सा यंत्र था उससे फोटो लेके मुझे दिखाने की कोशिश की पर उसमे आया नही फिर वो अपने हाथ में एक book लेके आए और उसमे मुझे दो चीजे पढ़ाई

पहली थी ” गुरु गोविंद दो खड़े खा के लगी पहि” और दूसरी थी ” जो दूसरो के आदेश पे चलते है वो उल्टा ही जाते है ” फिर मैने कहा कोसी बुक पढू में तो उन्होंने उस बुक के ऊपर लिखा 16 वि ( जिसका मतलब मुझे नहीं समझ आया ) उसके बाद मैने कहा कि मुझे आदेश मिलते है ध्यान के समय समझ नही आता की कोनसा सही है और कोनसा गलत तो उन्होंने बोला प्रार्थना करो तो मैने कहा में तो आपको सौप देता हु करने से पहले तो उन्होंने हा भारी उसने बाद में उनके चरणों में प्रणाम करके जाने लगा मैने कहा अंधेरा है रूम कि light on कर दू तो उन्होंने मना कर दिया इसके बाद में जाने लगा तो वहा बहुत सारे जूते पड़े थे और में जल्दी में था की मेरे दोस्त मेरा wait कर रहे है कब से मेरे जूते कहा है पर मेरे जूते मुझे नही मिल रहे थे ।।।इसके अलावा में गुरुदेव के पास था तब भी मेरे अंदर ऐसे था की बाहर वो wait kar रहे है

और सुबह उठने के बाद वो persence मुझे महसूस हो रही थी

इस का क्या मतलब हो सकता है दादा

Follow up answer:

That is why i felt bit strange as Sri Aurobindo does not show this way. Yes you can surely ask. I am aware of your guru ji.

I remember once reading in Sri Aurobindo’s commentary on the Isha Upanishad that one cannot become a Brahmin without first becoming a Kshatriya. I believe that I never had the Kshatriya element developed sufficiently within me, and it has always been a source of embarrassment and insecurity for me as a man. 💪🙏🏻🪷[…]

He said both are needed. But these are things ingrained within us. Brahmin and Kshatriya are not soul states, inner innate temperaments and not so much of outer actions. Nevertheless everything can be developed by practice. By taking the challenges of life, through vigorous physical exercises, by praying for strength, by reading …

Bhaiya, Rishi Panchami fast is coming up, and I read the story behind it. Honestly, I found it quite absurd. The story talks about a woman unknowingly breaking certain rules during menstruation, cooking food that her husband eats, and then both of them facing severe karmic consequences in their next life. 🪷🙏🏻 […]

Yes, all these things have been added much later and have no authority in the main Scriptures. It is a story added in some of the Puranas, mainly I suppose to enforce rules of hygiene for women during the menstrual period. This was one of the ways to instil certain hygiene practices through fear. It has no meaning now. Most of the fasts …

How should we understand deities like Subrahmanyeshwara (Skanda/Murugan) and Vinayaka (Ganesha)? Are they individual divine beings, cosmic powers of the One Divine, or symbols of different aspects of consciousness? How should an aspirant in Sri Aurobindo’s Yoga relate to them in practice? 🙏🏻✨

The four original gods, Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh and, behind them all Krishna, are, in their origin, the four aspects of the One Divine, named in Indian spiritual thought as Sacchidananda. Sat (सत) is infinite existence from which Brahma ji emerges. Chit is Chit-tapas, Consciousness and Force from which Hari or Vishnu ji and Hara or Shiv ji …
