AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Actually I am not able to control myself from keeping  physical relation with my wife. Normally in average once in a week we are keeping relationship. Is it not good and obstacle for sadhana? Sometime I am feeling guilty but unable to control. Every time I think it will be last, but …

It takes time, sometimes quite a long time, decades to completely master the sexual impulse that is rooted so deeply into the physical-biological parts. Living with wife / husband keeps fuelling it further feeding it due to the close contact until it slowly wanes due mainly to overfamiliarity and a weakening of the vital intensity. 

It is a process one has to go through. Sanyama, that is regulating the impulse, say once a week is the right way towards mastering it. Slowly you can increase the duration it little by little until the urge almost fades away. Though as long as the sex centre itself is not transformed and Peace, Strength, Wideness not settled there, the mastery does remain precacious. A close contact with a woman especially when alone can trigger the nerves again. So it is best avoided.

Guilt etc have to be kept out completely. It only makes matters worse rubbing salt to the injury. Keep trying self restraint and keep offering to the Mother until it is ready to be dropped off. Meanwhile stay busy, do physical workout regularly and avoid boredom. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

There is no need to delve into knowledge of geo-politics? It is one profession among many. No one is expected to learn about every profession, isn’t it?

Dear Sir, why is that the ego anti-divine? Why does it is not naturally surrenders to the divine? Why is there division and a distance from the divine? Why does it have to die ultimately for the complete spiritualization? 🪞🌱🙏🏼

Ego is neither Divine nor anti-Divine. It is a part of human nature whose purpose is to create the sense of individuality. Individuality is a necessary element in human evolution. Its purpose is to create the sense of freewill, within certain limits of course. Freewill in this context simply means that the individual must chose from a number of forces impacting upon the person. The choices may be aligned to our deeper truth, swabhava and swadharma, …
