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

Dear Sir, please explain the following: “If the mind still needs the more familiar mental conception, it can be kept so long as it is needed; only do not let the soul be bound by it and do not let it limit the inflow of other relations with the Divine and larger forms of experience.”: Sri Aurobindo: Letters on Yoga. Q1: How to ensure that the mental conceptions do not bound and limit the soul? 🧠✨🕊️🙏

One must always remember, in fact start with this state of humility that the mind does not understand spiritual things. If it is there and, along with it the aspiration for progress then the aspiration itself will carry us forward beyond the conceptions useful though they are / were at a certain stage. Say, at one stage we limit the Divine to a kind of relation, of fear …

Dear sir, please explain following lines from the Savitri. “Mortality bears ill the eternal’s touch: 📖🔥♾️🙏 […]

Mortality means here beings that are limited and hence subject to mortality. It is here a direct reference to man who lives shackled and bound in its limitations. He treats them as comfort zones. The touch of the Divine is felt like an assault to our normal ordinary way of life. Fire is the power of purification. Ether is the pure spiritual …
