I feel like my life has been full of hardships and struggles. Nothing ever comes to me easily, while others seem to get the same things effortlessly. And even when I finally do receive what I wanted, I don’t truly enjoy it because when I needed it the most, it wasn’t there. In the end, I do get everything, but it often feels too late to matter 😥 [conti]

Even now, I’m still struggling in my job, lacking even the most basic support or facilities. Over time, I’ve become increasingly irritable, I get upset when things don’t go my way, and I often take out that frustration on my husband and children. I feel constantly restless, and no matter how much others try to guide or support me, I just can’t seem to absorb it or put it into action.

Some lives are marked out for struggle, others for fruition. That is the whole idea of rebirth, a constant progress wherein the inner wealth we accumulate in one life is carried forward to another. Remember this truth and act knowing that God’s All-seeing eye is keeping an account of all your efforts and struggles. Dedicate your works to Him, trust His ways and let Him decide what to give and when.

Affectionately,

She is not only the Supreme Self but even more so the Consciousness and Power of the Supreme Self. Without Her the Supreme Self would not know Itself as the Supreme. Without Her the Supreme Self will remain unmanifest as the Being of Sacchidananda. Here is what Sri Aurobindo reveals to us in The Mother about the ..

This soft flow is the psychic feeling. It originates from the depth of the heart and flows towards the rest of your nature.

During concentration it is better to go deeper towards the source of this soft current in the depths of the heart. It will lead you to your soul.
