The Gita, speaks to sarvasankalpasannyasi and Yogakshemavahamyaham. These are not mere words or hollow promises. At least such has been the experience of those who

I am not sure what to do. Mother has been working on my body for it to get pregnant for such a long time. We tried naturally for the last 5 years and finally we went for IVF and now even that has failed. Sometimes my attitude is not right, sometimes my body. 🤰🏼🦋😰[…]

The Divine is not there to fulfil our ignorant desires. Why push and force our ignorant will on God, who knows much better than us

What if the desire to hold on — the attachment — isn’t rooted in pride or the need to show ownership, but rather in a deep sense of care? A quiet protectiveness, born not from materialism, but from love. What if it’s not about clinging to possessions, but about holding close the people who matter most — not out of selfishness, but from the fear of loss?🤔🌼✨[…]

I fully understand the difference in the Goal and Execution of the Integral Yoga, as I keep discovering my true passion for Service to the Divine. Also, I understand that it’s fully on one’s own True Aspiration and need. 😊🙏🏻❤️‍🔥✨[…]

Perhaps you mean Kaliyuga? Yes if we go by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother the manifestation of the New Creation which is the Truth-Creation literally,

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. 😊🙏🏻🏵️[…]

The sexual potency in terms of erection, sperm count and intercourse have all been coming down on an average especially in the Western World leading

If the fundamental Nature of the Universe is bound by Space and Time, while a Supreme Creator — by definition — must transcend Space and Time, does this imply that the Universe is not Divine in Itself but rather a manifestation of a spaceless, timeless God? 🌠✨🤔

I don’t want to get married, but my mother is insisting that I get married, and I am unable to explain why I don’t want to get married. I don’t have a reason to give; it’s just that I don’t feel like being married. I am praying to the Lord that there may be no matches, as they see the Jataka.
