AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Pranam Alok da. I stay in Kolkata and I’ve been having the worst war anxiety. It’s been 6 months and I’ve been getting anxious 🫨about absolutely anything and everything from my external environment especially this month. I kept thinking something will happen to me or my family or my home. Before this, I’ve always had faith on the Mother but this time I’ve spiraled like never before. I’ve thought of the worst scenarios, imagined attacks on my home, haven’t let my family go out of the house even for work which is silly because we’re in Kolkata, which is far from the border.

How to stop such bad thoughts from coming in and more importantly, how to keep faith in such scenarios?

Turn the mind away rather than trying to stop these thoughts. Even if they play in the background don’t give them attention or importance especially by acting upon them. If they try to invade either just step back and be a witness without judging them or do some physical activity such as arranging the cupboards. Read something from The Mother and Sri Aurobindo’s writings everyday and do Her Naam Japa inwardly in the heart. Take it like a wave that will pass away. The less attention and importance you give the sooner it will leave you. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Hindus worship various gods and goddesses. Like Ganesha for success. Lakshmi for wealth. Durga for protection. Similarly, why is Shivalinga worshipped? As you mentioned yesterday, Shivalinga is a very powerful symbol of divine power working on earth. It is representative of the union of Shiva and Nature. So is Shivalinga worshiped to seek prosperity, nourishment, strength from Prakriti that is Parvati and wisdom, knowledge from Shiva🤔?

I was ruminating on an issue and wanted your opinion. Sri Aurobindo said that Sri Ramakrishna was as much an Avatar as Christ, so his spiritual power or impact on world in numbers or quality must be similar if not equivalent to that of Christ. Sri Ramakrishna also reveals that Maa Sarada devi was the Avatar of Mahasaraswati, so she too must be equivalent in power and impact on the world to Sri Ramakrishna and therefore Christ. And Swami Vivekananda was a Rudra vibhuti who did Tapasya and realized the truth within, so his spiritual power and impact must be greater than Muhammad or even Shivaji or Augustus. And I don’t even need to mention Sri Aurobindo and the Mother themselves as the Supreme Avatars. And there were countless enlightened sages unleashed into India in the last century like the Heavens had broke loose😐.

First about the facts. Sri Aurobindo did not speak of Sri Ramkrishna as an Avatar in the sense of the Gita. In fact Sri Ramakrishna himself spoke something similar when he spoke about it. But both Sri Aurobindo and Sri ….
