AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Alok da how to get rid of these right, wrong, true, false, mental conception, ideas, thought which create a strong barrier towards the divine. How to be widening and plastic in every part of our being? Is it any state where the right, wrong, true, false will vanishes? Then how to achieve this state because in this narrowness I feel captive inside a cave😥.

It is neither possible nor advisable to drop off the dualities by a mental understanding that there is a higher state where they cease to exist. One should instead strive towards this higher state and the dualities will progressively drop off when we are sincerely surrendered to the Divine Mother in all our parts. Dualities stem from the ego which acts according to inbuilt preferences. As the ego progresses towards the true surrender of desires, preferences in favour of obeying the Divine Will, we automatically begin to grow into the Divine Unity. Until then we should practice equanimity and nishkama karma while making a wide, general rules for our action. To begin with we can say that all that leads us and the world at large towards Truth and Light and Peace and Harmony, towards the Divine is good and all that tends towards falsehood and Ignorance and agitation, anger, excitement, disorder and division is not good. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da
