Home » Spirituality » You mentioned in one of your speeches that people typically seek a spiritual path when they are dissatisfied with the world or realise its limitations. The first strategy is a little pessimistic because Mother mentions that if the same world begins to meet your wants, you might become enamoured or attracted once more. However, what if we are just in the initial stage, such as being unhappy with the world? Does it still serve as a launching pad for our spiritual development🤨?

Yes certainly whatever makes one turn towards and seek the Divine, even if it be for material goods or well-being is fine. But for this to last turn this vairagya of recoil from world pain due to disappointments, into a sattwic vairagya that shows us how ephemeral, temporary and transient earthly happiness is. It will sustain the journey and one day turn from a negative to a positive turning towards the Divine.

Being a bad friend: I see a certain insensitivity in me to other people. I lack empathy in some situations, and it makes me feel very bad about myself. I have lost friends in the past because of this. While I generally try to help people, there is something in me unsympathetic towards others. Because of this tendency, I feel myself incapable towards building lasting friendships. I have cried about it, and at this point I don’t even feel like having friends anymore because I’m conscious of this defect in my nature, so I don’t want to repeat the same cycle again and experience the same moral pain that I feel. For now, I can only observe it and feel bad about it. How to change it I have no idea🫤.

This is not such a big defect and in certain ways it is not necessarily a defect. It is possibly because you make your own choices and have your own mind, a kind of individuality that can sometimes become a barrier in opening to …

I often experience a Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) when I’m not active on social media platforms like Instagram or when I think about deleting my accounts. It’s about missing out on what’s happening in other people’s lives, falling behind on the latest trends, conversations, or even useful content related to my interests like painting, health, and more. What if I feel disconnected without being on these platforms? Also, Why do these feelings arise, and how can I manage them in a healthier way without relying on social media for a sense of belonging or staying informed😥?

These feelings arise from the collective suggestions that are floating around. The more one externalises through these means such as the social media provides, the more we get caught up in this whirlpool of suggestions. It is …

Last night, I read a page of ‘Savitri’ before going to sleep. Whenever I read something from ‘Savitri,’ it feels like something is descending within me. It’s like a kind of intoxication that comes with peace. Around 4 AM, I heard a voice within me saying, ‘I am The Mother, I am within everyone, and it is I who is doing everything.’ Are these just my thoughts that are coming to me? Besides this, it has happened two or three times that the name ‘Radha’ starts within me at night. Could there be some deep truth to all this🤨?

Thoughts are not formed by the individual brain or mind but received from several cosmic agencies. The reading of Savitri opened the doors of your mind to the higher truths not ordinarily accessible to the …
