AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I have been separated from my husband for 4 years. I tried to solve and then went through mutual understanding the next year, but whenever I used to go and try talk to him or the family, it used to turn into an argument and then turn into abuse, so I let that go. 😢🌹[…]

And the case has also going on since then. My question is: I aspire to every day to the Mother that, ‘Let Her Will be done’. So, whenever someone from the Ashram or family asks me, ‘Till when this procedure will go on’, and I say, ‘I don’t know, Maa dekh rahe hai…’, – leaving all up to the Sweet Mother to Decide and Act.

BUT everyone comes and tells me that, “Theek hai, but tumhe bhi kuch Act karna hoga na… Tumhara time bhi to ja raha hai… Tumhari life padi hai aage…” Dada, what does that mean… I don’t think like this, I aspire to My Sweet Mother to decide not only this, but everything for me…

I’m confused, WHAT ACTION ARE THEY ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT AND HOW SHALL I MOVE FORWARD IN THIS?

When confusion prevails, it is best not to rush into action, as it only complicates things more and more. It is, in fact, better sit quietly within and watch the flow of things, using the time to reflect upon the kind of life you aspire to lead in the future. There are two roads before you. One is to go back or continue with the life as it is, whose glimpse you have been given. The other road is to take this experience as a starting point to turn your feet away from the usual course of life that the average humanity seeks, the ephemeral, short-lived happiness that one may get through marriage, family life, children, and all the rest. Look carefully and deeply within as to what you want and then act with clarity and decisiveness.

Act one must, but with clarity of purpose; clarity about the goal you seek for yourself and in a state of inner calm. If you chose the option of remarriage, then you need to settle this issue, preferably with mutual consent. If you turn your back on this option or choose a higher goal, then obviously nothing more is needed to be done about the court case. You have to just sail through it, carried by Her Grace towards the true purpose of your life.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I genuinely love a guy (or at least I feel that way), but we are not in a relationship because we know that we are not perfect for each other. We live in different places, so we don’t meet. There were times when we had an argument and we stopped talking for months, but we ended up together. 👨🏼💗👩🏼🦋[…]

There is evidently a vital attraction which is very different from love. It usually wears off with time unless there is a strong deep affinity of goals, ideas and interests.

Marraige is a different matter. It requires a deep commitment which can come only if there is some glimmer of true love or else strong earthly bonds of family, habits, customs, language etc. Besides, long distance relationship is very different from living together in close physical proximity. Many unwanted things begin to show up in close…
