AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

From few weeks I am not able to bear the power of Divine consciousness. I am not able to hear or read anything related to Mother and Sri Aurobindo. Whenever I try to think of anything related to God my mind becomes kind of numb for some time. I am scared that my mind can breakdown if i continue on the path. I don’t know if its because I am not able to surrender to the Divine because I have doubts about which form of Divine i have to surrender to. How can i help myself in this case? Also recently some relationship did not work and I feel very sad about it. I don’t find meaning in life. I want to live for the ideal of immortal love and also take care that I take a wise decision so that my ideal is not against the Higher Wisdom. How can I make life more meaningful with this ideal in mind 😪(to have love in my heart for the person till the end and not give that space to anyone else)?

It is beautiful to have an ideal because without an ideal man is as good as dead. Yet at the same time one must know

My in-laws have belief that I should not keep pictures of my deceased parents as my Whatsapp dp or as wallpaper. I am not sure about this belief, mean while I searched online and found a video of one baba saying about it hinders the soul passing away . I have kept my father childhood picture as my Whatsapp dp …will it hinder his soul or energy to go peacefully. What about all those pictures of late president and Gandhi Jj and prime ministers who are hanged in government offices and places of work. Are they all realised soul? I read we should keep pics of realized soul . This question might be feel stupid but I don’t know whom to ask 😪. I am still attached to my father so I feel like keeping his pictures. What’s your opinion on this? Kindly help.

What hinders the smooth transition is attachment, grief, crying etc. Deep affection, love, wish and prayer to have a safe journey are helpful. Of course

I saw a video that Neil Armstrong actually never walked on the moon🌝, they showed evidence that the flag was flying but here is no air in space, another the foot prints are different from the suit footprints and another one shows that there are no stars in the space, another shows that there is a rock written C on it, all that before Neil Armstrong walked down on the moon, so I don’t understand did he really walked on moon or not and why did America do all this?

This possibly doctored video was circulated long back in an effort to discredit America. But we should not discredit the genuine work of the scientists.

I am suffering from neuropathy and it is very trying and I need to know why and how I can get better and be completely free from it? Have tried many therapies including Acupuncture and now reflexology! It is better but there is constriction in the feet and pins and needles in the feet and sometimes hands also. Please please help me🙏      

Nerves require peace and rest to heal. You should call peace constantly in the system. Use a mantra that gives you the sense of peace

What steps can I take daily to increase my love for Krishna? I do 2 japa a day and some bhajan and read books of Sri Aurobindo and Maa. Apart from that my whole day is a day of indulgences which take me towards darkness. I can never keep habits for long. Do I don’t want to change bad enough that I’m not changing. Regret and lament🫣 is all that I do after hasty decisions

First thing is to cut out regret and lament. That only saps energy and makes us feel increasingly underconfident and eventually give up effort.

I live in Germany for work, and at times when I am on the surface mind or outer consciousness, I feel a collective force (something that has some momentum) that’s fueled by rage. It is some kind of vital energy, especially I see teenagers becoming instruments of such things. I have come across people who encourage others to channel this rage and anger because they call it sacred rage. I don’t see it as sacred at all, I think it arises because people here don’t listen fully and they engage on a partial level with everything in their lives. Is this what you call wokeism? Even learned people here encourage such acts. Especially, I am tired of the feminist ideas here and the feminist here are some of the most questionable people I have ever met (there is no real understanding but a fueled drive based on some ideas). Aren’t these the distorted old energies😨? Can these destructive behaviors actually establish harmony? Or, is there a misunderstanding from my side? It seems in the history of Europe, wars have always preceded the collective change. Is this the only way for real change? Can’t we grow organically to live a truthful, harmonious and a divine life? Can’t we take the road of a sapphire tale? Doesn’t this mean a lack of sincerity in us somewhere? Why are we so short-sighted? I had tried to engage with people on this before, but it bears no fruition. How to protect ourselves from such things that are prevalent in the environmental consciousness?

Your intuitive feeling is quite right. Europe is going through a great turmoil and if one may say so a slow degeneration of whatever values
