AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Can you explain to me in simple words what Individuality means? I tried reading a lot of what Mother and Sri Aurobindo have explained, but I am not getting it. πŸ˜•πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«πŸ˜΅

Individuality means making one’s own choices. It means not to be driven by social opinions, family norms, or public and peer pressures, but to reflect, discern and decide what is true and right and good and beautiful and have the courage to do that even if the world is against it. Individuality develops by discovering the truth within us or the highest idea that moves us and then organising our life around it, regardless of the opposition one may meet.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
