AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Alok da , I am always confused and indecisive🫣.. this led me to always having big dreams and achieving nothing nor effectively studying since I was 12 and I’m close to 30. I give up like anything. Either I don’t like this or that about this job or that job or this exam or that exam or I’m scared of job profile as a girl or it’s in my state and I want to explore and it’s the same in all aspects of my life. And I never give 100% effort. I feel like I will end up a loser if this keeps going and after all this thinking I again end up watching random web series. The only good thing in life is the 10-20 minutes I spend talking to image of Ma and Aurobindo in the book. But by making mistakes which I know are mistakes, Isn’t that just pushing me more into darkness? Am I rushing or hurrying too much? It’s like I’m sinking deeper and deeper into the abyss of old habits and I don’t know where and what to conquer and stick to it. I’ve watched everything all cures but do nothing for long. Then a thought comes why am I worrying about all this when it’s all god’s plan and then again fall into the cycle in a day or two. I don’t understand anything. You’ll guide me and I’ll not even follow that for more than three days. Can I possibly do anything to grow and rise to a balanced living?

I have a  simple suggestions for you.  

Sit quietly for 10 min everyday and think about the purpose of your life.

Play some games and engage in regular exercises.  

Call the Mother’s Name, Ma, as often as you can and dedicate everything you do to Her. 

Let me know after two months how are you doing. 

Affectioneatly,

Alok Da

I have a question, Alok Da: I recently experienced a profound, day-long state of healing, peace and detachment after contemplating that true divinity lies beyond all determinations. By consciously releasing my sense of being the “doer” and shifting to “Thy Will be done,” I moved from a state of critical analysis to one of surrender. 🕊️🙏🏻[…]

What you tried earlier is the way of discernment characteristic of gyana yoga. Here one relies almost entirely upon one’s own efforts. 

The second one of renouncing the doership is the kernel of karmayoga. The third attitude of ‘Let Thy Will be done’ is the acme of bhakti yoga. 

Combine the three approaches. Step back from the blind identification with the surfaces of life a…

The counsellor didn’t help Alok da. lol. Modern day psychiatry / philosophy is all based on medication and drug’s. For them smoking and lsd is normal. Stress is normal. Emotions not. Sensitivity not. She prescribed pills for me. I guess turning to God / Maa is best. 🌼🙏🏻

Yes, that is how the extreme reductionist view works. Of course medicines have their own limited role when the mind enters a too chaotic or extreme phase. But it is not enough. And yes turning to the Divine Mother is always …

I had a curious dream and I remember it perfectly, so I wanted to consult you about it. I saw a picture from a distant and elevated place. In the picture, I saw a one floor building, in a shape of a perfect square and with no roof on it. The building was further sectioned into 4 perfect squares. There were also non 🌙✨ […]

It is not just a dream but a very beautiful experience that revealed to you the truth of your destiny, your true destiny, even a glimpse of your true being, the central being in its Divine Home. That is what the square opening to the top indicates. The four perfect …
