AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My question is I can’t sit down in front of The Mother’s photo and do prayer. But in the morning only one time I pray her to stay with at each moment with me. How can I increase my concentration to The Mother?

Concentration upon the Mother’s photographs and praying to Her is one powerful way to connect. But a prayerful attitude can be kept whole day by praying on waking up and before sleep,  before and after eating,  before and after any activity.  It is a quiet remembrance within by taking Her Name and offering the activity to Her. 

It helps to keep some small book of the Mother such as White Roses and reading a passage whenever time permits. 

One can also keep Her music especially Savitri music playing in the background and keep a couple of quotes here and there strategically to bring back the remembrance. 

Rest is a matter of Time and practice. 

Affectionately,

Alok da.
