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. πŸ¦‹[…]

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.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

The Mother and Sri Aurobindo laughed at the stupidity of religous conversions. They saw Religion as a spent force which is destined to be overpassed by the growing spiritual impulse in man. The upsurge of conversions, whatever its temporary success is destined to fail. The evolving human soul cannot be satisfied for long in any …
