AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Alok da, I want to come to Pondicherry, please help me. I want to work in the ashram. I want to do the work of The Mother. I only have some savings and I have a daughter. I want to give myself completely to The Mother.๐Ÿชท๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒ…๐Ÿšฒ

Doing The Motherโ€™s work is possible in several ways including while staying in the place where you presently live. One doesnโ€™t need to come to Pondicherry or live in the Ashram to do The Mother’s Work. Besides it is not easy to live in the Ashram, not only financially but also psychologically. 

I wish I had the resources to help everyone who wants to come and work for The Mother. But there is no such means at present. The Ashram does not accept anyone as an Ashram inmate if their child is admitted in the Ashram School. Coming here would mean finding a work for yourself to sustain yourself and the child. It is not easy. I understand the difficult situation you are in with regard to your husband but coming away to the Ashram is not a solution to it. You should face it with courage and ask for your legitimate rights. Involve your parents and near and dear ones. Relocating is never an easy task. It will only greatly increase your already burdened life. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Namastey Alok Da, I was reading some predictions related to Pakistan and China by Mother and Sri Aurobindo on the website, Was the Mother referring to a future event that is yet to manifest, or was this vision specific to that time period and did not occur due to divine intervention or a change in the working of forces? Is there any future possibility where China might invade India?๐Ÿชท๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŒ๐Ÿฎ

She was referring to a possibility, a possibility that was strong at that moment as well remains a risk for the future. Sri Aurobindo also said that they are very restless and saw the threat of Red China invading India through Tibet. As long as the Communist party …

I have been living away from home for almost 9 years for my studies, and currently study in a foreign country. I usually donโ€™t get much lonely and even if I, I get comfortable on remembering the Mother. But for sometime, I am getting too emotional on festivals such as today, which usually results in a fever and impacts my work. How should I deal with it?๐Ÿก๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿงธโ˜•
