AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

In a situation when some one is creating problems for us and say public nuisance etc. how can we look at him?

Stay quiet in an inwardness offering it all to Her. Once the reactionary elements are settled then act according to the inspiration and the need of the moment.

Affectionately,

Alok da.
