AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Respected Dada, Namaste. At one point in time, it seemed like Sadhana was going on well, Aspirations were high, and Surrender was there (may not be an integral one though). Some weaknesses in nature resurfaced like jealousy, sex impulse slowly and then vehemently afterwards. 🦋[…]

Now they have their full play, and I feel like I have never had any progress whatsoever. There is a lack of confidence. Fear and anxiety grip me sometimes, accompanied by loss of sleep for so many months. I am distracted by those vicious thoughts that keep repeating and draining me out. I have been a recipient of The Mother’s Grace throughout these years. This period, though looks insurmountable, may pass, but now it looks too big to handle. Please guide with some practical steps.

These phases come in every sadhak’s life. They have to be endured as the purificatory process. If one remains steadfast in faith and aspiration, they eventually do pass away. Remember, the night is often darkest before the Dawn. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da
