AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sir, if thoughts are coming from different planes of consciousness and pushing us to act, then how can we think about a specific topic and think along a certain line deliberately? (Like reading a certain subject and deliberating upon it, planning about the future, etc). 🤔🪶🌸🦋

Our consciousness draws the corresponding vibrations from the world around based on its state. Generally, it draws these vibrations through affinity and then they get translated in us as thoughts, impulsions, passions, waves of emotion, etc. They wear the costume of thought using the language that the mind has learnt and the brain has stored. 

Now meditation is the process with which we control this random inflow of vibrations by consciously concentrating upon an idea, and directing the thoughts that flow into us in the intended direction. Our will and concentration of consciousness acts to draw certain vibrations and reject others. These take the form of thoughts within us.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Alok da,This might not exactly be a serious spiritual question with depth but forgive me for asking this . One consistent pattern from childhood is that one sees is that in all the images and depictions that one gets acquainted of rishis,yogis is that they really have massive long hair. Shraddhalu ji in today’s times also has that look. But there’s this fear/tension of hair loss among young men today, it’s quite a psychological blow on one’s confidence and what not. And one opposite pattern has been that so many men of the homeless type or labouring class , even with all the malnutrition and what not really also have good hair and I’ve seen men young lads thinking about this being a result of life of low stress and what not. Does yogic concentration/metabolism have any indirect ripple effect on having a healthy hair cos that’s how all these rishis are adorned, I know it might sound silly but am curious

Hairs and Nails represent the inconscient atavistic elements in humans. They have an evolutionary necessity in animals but in human beings they are simply an extension of the animal body type. That is why there is in it a very strong genetic hereditary element. There were a number of very close disciples of Sri Aurobindo namely ..

But doesn’t marriage keep people stable also – or would they drown themselves in alcohol and drugs, as in the West, due to loneliness? Free intimacy is also a hindrance, right? At least it fixes your emotional, physical, and financial needs. To explore higher areas of life… or wouldn’t everyone just live like animals? Osho’s ways were effective in giving an alternative to marriage? 🏡🌿

Marraige is like a double edged sword. If the partner is right it can help create stability. If the partner is not the right one it can lead to chronic unhappiness, conflicts and instability. This is especially true of our times when the real stabilising factor, the family, is broken.

In the First Rik of the Rig Veda, Sri Aurobindo describes the nature of the Supreme as Sat-Chit-Ananda across different states of being. While explaining Nirguna and Saguna Sat, he uses phrases like “they nivṛtta, He nivṛtta” and “they pravṛtta, He nivṛtta”, which I find difficult to grasp. ☀️🕉️[…]

The Lord is both pravritti and nivratti, as the Fire and the Sun are both pravritti and nivratti. As Light they simply stand back and illumine the field but as energy they impel all things into dynamic movement. So too, the Divine as knowledge illumines all things with His Intelligence even without entering into them. But as power, Shakti, He
