Sri Aurobindo and the Mother are in their essential consciousness. But for the purposes of manifestation they appear as two, even as Ishwara and Shakti.

There some mystics saying that when one realised the Divine then their all obstacles, defect vanished. Then why transformation is needed? I don’t understand. Can you clear my doubt🙏🏼📿✨🌱

I have been bothered with this situation several times, when there are certain people who you are associated to as ‘family’ and cannot really cut ties with them although they are someone who I do not get along with, or can reason with.

It never helps to follow and try to fulfil social expectations of people. It is a kind of hypocrisy which is not good for our

I am completely unemployed and when I am trying to study sincerely, I can’t do it. And I am depressed looking back on those 4 years which I have wested mindlessly doing nothing. Also, as I made no progress and wasted my time and energy in everything except study, now I became mentally and physically very weak. As I was always inclined to the Mother and Sri Aurobindo and quite involved in our branch’s activity, I don’t know how it has happened with me. Though I know that I am the only one responsible for this situation.💼❌🌧️🪫😮‍💨

The solution is actually very simple. Analysing why it happened, lamenting about the wasted time, looking back surely won’t help. If anything it will only

Sir are there healing kriyas and yoga techniques in Sri Aurobindo ashram to help people overcome these challenges. Depression and migraine and extreme loneliness and sadness is something I am battling for the last 5-6 years intensely but not have been able to get out of even with medications.🧘⚡🌀❤️‍🩹

May 24, 2026

The Ashram is primarily meant for a higher spiritual evolution. There are no kriyas etc that are taught to overcome these problems. What is adviced

One day I felt that I do not know anything about this world, so I try to know it logically and try to experience the witness feeling, then some days I get yoga and some days I am separated from it, sometimes I get so immersed in meditation that the balance of my body is disturbed and my attention is diverted from my body and I get afraid. I am not able to keep my body and mind completely still, so what is the solution, please tell me.🧘‍♂️🏔️✨⚓👁️

I am listener of your Youtube podcasts, which have been my entry point into Sri Aurobindo and the Mother’s teachings. During my regular weekend drive from Bangalore to my in-laws’ home, I usually connect my phone through bluetooth and play your latest Video and leave the phone in the dashboard. I am completely alone during the drives and allow myself to immerse in your talks till I reach the destination, which is usually within 1.5hrs and I do the same while returning back home as well.👑 ♾️ ✨

If we listen to Sri Aurobindo’s bhajans or mantras and tears come out, is it because of the psychic being? When we listen to a mantra or bhajan, something happens inside — we feel a different kind of inner movement. Does this mean that it is the psychic being that is acting within us?🕯️❤️🔥✨

The Mother did not seem to favour the institution of marriage itself, let alone dowry. Whatever might have been the reason for instituting this system,
