AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Can I use Durga Saptsati Mantras to pray and invoke The Mother, or any specific Devi Mantra/Beej Mantras to pray or invoke The Mother? My Kuldevi is Mother Dakshineswari Kali, so should I use Mother Kali Mantra to invoke The Mother or as a prayer to Her? Or any traditional prayer of Shiva/any Devta for “Maa Sri Aurobindo” – Please Please Guide Sir. 🙂🙏🏻🌷

The traditional Mantras invoke one or the other aspect of the Divine Mother.  Each of these great goddesses has a specific function. Instead, why not invoke the Divine Mother in all Her fullness and all aspects and powers through the mantra given by Sri Aurobindo as below. 

OM anandamayi chaitanyamayi satyamayi parame. (ॐ आनन्दमयि चैतन्यमयि सत्यमयि परमे)

Or very simply as Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa(मा मा मा मा मा मा मा)

Affectionately,

Alok Da

The talk sounded like you were putting down Marriage as a concept! True, some regions do this horse ride/wasting money, which is in bad taste. However, Marriage as a concept gives the monkey minds a framework. 🥸💍💒[…]

Yes, I agree that for the average human being, these outer frameworks and social institutions do serve a purpose of holding people together. Of course, as I mentioned, marriage or not, love and togetherness can be beautiful and ought to be so. But for that, man needs to evolve beyond the present frameworks, which operate as long as one accepts the limits of dos and don’ts. …
