AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

What is ones duty when some elder in place of parent continues to harass you😠 and put you down all the time and manipulates?

Is standing for one self with self respect against this elder person and stopping this happen is against dharma.

If some one who’s supposed to stand and take responsibility for you abandons or simply stays still during this process what to do with them should they be respected?

The first and foremost duty of man is develop oneself fully and consciously, and through that to fulfil the true purpose of one’s life. That is also the best help one can render to anybody.

Respect is not something that can be demanded or given simply because someone is older in age or a close relative. Rama killed Ravana who was older in age and Krishna killed Kansa, his own maternal uncle. So did the Divine Charioteer command Arjun to kill Bheesma who was both elder as well as grandsire. Respect is to be earned, naturally commanded by one’s life and words and actions, not something imposed by age. Dharma is to find and fulfil the true purpose of our human existence. Keeping one’s self respect intact is part of this. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Regarding the Four Aspects of the Mother, Alok da, I sense a parallel in Sri Aurobindo’s evaluation of various poets in which they excel and in which they lack. Poets like Keats have a lyrical sweetness and beauty but lack vital power and raw force, which a poet like Browning has. 📜✒️😊🙏🏻🪷[…]

Today evening while meditating on mother’s organ music on fairy dance, firstly I saw a living mountain having two big eyes and it was seeing all around with those eyes and then a number appeared again and again in that vision it is a number 349 what does it’s means sir.

The living mountain is the physical consciousness under the influence of the Psychic aspiration. 349 perhaps means the 3 lower and 4 higher planes that are embedded or involved within the physical consciousness represented by number 9. The dream implies that your physical consciousness is open to the Divine Influence.
