Alok da, in one of your talks, you mentioned how sexual activity is interrelated with ageing, but couldn't elaborate upon it because the subject matter for the talk is different and in another talk, you've briefly said that you wouldn't recommend having more than one kid in today's times. 😊🙏🏻🏵️[...]

Seeking a bit more clarity and elaboration on both these points, which you couldn’t continue in the talks due to subject matter and Time restrictions.

The sexual potency in terms of erection, sperm count and intercourse has all been coming down on average, especially in the Western World, leading to declining fertility rates.

The number of kinds is often in inverse proportion to the Intelligence.

It is much better to catch the knot of life at the other end from where it all begins. The riddle of life cannot be understood on the surface. Focus on the one thing needful, the Divine, and all the rest will begin to fall in its place. This has been the experience of all who have gone on the path.

I am reading the Synthesis of Yoga and Sri Aurobindo is speaking about the union having a threefold character (pg. 131). I wanted to understand whether this is a skilful parallel to draw: a union by identity = Atman = Brahman 📖🌟🙏🏻 […]

Here is the passage from the Synthesis of Yoga to which you are referring.

‘That which is thus made manifest to our vision and experience, and the union has a threefold character. There is a union in spiritual essence, by identity; there is a union by the indwelling of our soul in this highest Being and Consciousness; there is a
