AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

All are not same in the power and effect. If it were so then the Divine would not assume different names and forms simply to cater to the different needs of different individuals depending upon each one’s stage of evolution.” Does it mean we have to invoke different deities for different powers? Is there any specific form of The Divine Mother 😇 which can bestow all virtues?

The Divine Mother is the original Power, Adya Shakti. If we invoke Her then She does what is needed, gives or takes away whatever is necessary in Her total vision. Nothing more is then needed since She is the Mother of the gods and whatever She grants, the others are compelled to concede. There is no need to invoke different deities once one invokes the Divine Mother. If anything it is likely to create confusion by interfering in a more comprehensive action of the Divine Mother.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I want to do that and become financially independent, but whenever I mention going to another place for a job, my parents deny and they say, “This is your age for marriage and what will society think if you go out?” 🌱🧭 […]

I completely agree with you and fully understand your need to travel alone, find your own partner and make your choices. It is the right thing to do and is the dharma of the Age. How else will one grow and discover oneself. 

But this will be very difficult as long as you are financially dependent in some way or the other on the family. The most important thing you need therefore is to have is financial independence. As long as you depend upon…
