AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Alok da, how does one flourish and use spiritual values at a toxic workplace? Especially when your seniors are ensuring that you are crushed for being on the right side in a place ethics are violated, especially those very seniors ensure that lackeys are given power over you so that one’s morale and courage is destroyed and one falls in line. How does one act spiritually in a workplace as bad as that🤨?

The spiritual consciousness remains completely indifferent to the human play in ignorance. It watches it as the means lower nature uses for its purposes, itself remains in peace and equality, tries to understand the Divine Play and acts not under reaction to the illusory sattwic Maya of moral right and wrong but according to the higher impulsion regardless of its consequences.

For a sattwic consciousness, which is not spiritual, the action is based on what is the right thing to do in a given circumstance. It does not judge or condemn but acts according to its own judgment of right and wrong leaving the others to their fate as that is none of our concern.

The vital consciousness reacts with anger, fear or courage according to how the ego self sees the situation.

The morale and courage of a genuinely spiritual person is NEVER destroyed as it never depends upon how or what others are but only on the Divine.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

What helps handling these strong sexual impulses is to stay as busy as one can be, especially with a work that can be done in the Mother’s service. The other thing is to do…
