AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Why do always younger siblings get advantage like they first preference to them only for eg if we fight for a pen the adults will say give it to the younger one, it’s very irritating when this happens . Even when the younger does terrible craft ( mostly ) when we say bad to it the younger starts crying and I get scolded and the vise versa happens the adult says you can do better. Even when the younger lies and and I say the truth, but still the elders will give it to her, saying that she will small you give it to her. For example, it happens for a pen which I bought. Younger will say it’s mine lying and the alders give it to her saying you are big let it go. Always it is irritating😡

But it is done so that the elder learns to give and get the joy of giving whereas the younger develops natural respect towards the elder. In fact always the greater must give to the lesser. This is the law of life. Besides if one gives then creation works towards giving us more and more. So you see the giver is always the long term gainer.

Affectionately,

People who make such remarks are unfortunately very poorly informed about either Bergson and Kant let alone Sri Aurobindo whom they have certainly not read.
