I have been having dreams about terrorists and the borders of the country. In one dream, I saw that I killed four terrorists. After that, more terrorists captured one of my men and started killing him. They took him to his house and told him to bring the recorded cassette. Somehow, that man managed to escape and reached me, handing over the cassette. Then my wife and I boarded a train and left. 👹🪖😣[…]

It is because of your love for India that your consciousness is coming in contact with the forces around and to an extent even participating

Is it possible for the human body to sustain fully on the Soul’s Shakti without outside Food? As there’s the Soul’s inner nadam (Sound), inner vision, inner fragrance, inner touch, inner taste (Amrutha), for all indriyas, can there be food for the body also from Atman for its survival? Can Atman fully sustain the body after Realisation? 🥗😊🙏🏻🪻

February 25, 2026

In principle it is possible and one day it shall be so. There are other possible means for the body to draw energy apart from

I am reading Savitri for the first time. First, I read a page from Savitri, and then I read the full explanation given in AuroMaa, where there is a line-by-line description. Is this the right way to read Savitri for the first time? In your opinion, how should I read Savitri? 📖😊🙏🏻🌻

February 25, 2026

There is no one way. Different people read differently. Some prefer reading aloud, a little at a time, then reflect in a quiet inner state.

As I read Savitri, the same first page, “The Symbol Dawn”, this question came to my mind. When Sri Aurobindo wrote Savitri, what did He feel about the sincere readers? Has He felt the need for a commentary for Savitri? 😊🙏🏻🌻[…]

February 24, 2026

Sri Aurobindo wrote Savitri as the mantra of the future. He did not say anything about interpreting it. The Mother did give very short comments

My question is regarding the value of beautifying oneself through hair colours, skincare and expensive cosmetics, as well as time taking make up routine. What does Mother think about this? 😊❤️‍🔥🌹[…]

February 24, 2026

It is due to the action of the vital world descending upon earth to stall, deflect and distort the advent of the New Creation that

I was listening to one of your recent talks on Auromaa. There, you said that many children nowadays feel stifled in their bodies because they are so wide. I want to share my childhood experience of something similar. 😊🙏🏻🌻🌄[…]

February 24, 2026

It is a sign that you belong to the New Creation for whom nothing really is ultimately impossible.

I understand your point, but I have learned it the very hard way, Alok da, that Relations can’t just be formed by giving love. It indeed spoils them, making them incapable of thinking about where they can show love and make some effort towards the Relationship. 💖😣🥀[…]

Finding the soul or the Divine does not inevitably lead to a constant living in the Divine. Much depends also on what one means by

“Deformed the insect’s instinct and the brute’s,” – Savitri [Page 223]. How are the insects’ and brute’s instincts deformed? 🦋🐝🦗🤔✨

February 23, 2026

There are beautiful insects such as butterfly, honey bee and many others. It is the intrusion of the vital world influenced by falsehood that has

Dada Pranam, 1. Psychic Transformation, 2. Spiritual Transformation, 3. Supramental Transformation. Dada kindly makes us understand about it, step by step. 😊🙏🏻❤️‍🔥🪷🌄

First step is to be sure of the Call for this yoga which is not undertaken for any personal goals such as Moksha, becoming a

In the recent Auroville Lit fest, Chandrachur Ghose claimed that Subhas Bose most probably met the Mother when he was living as Gumnami Baba. Is there any truth in that? 🤔🌻🧘🏼‍♀️🔥

February 23, 2026

No, there is no such evidence or anything documented along these lines. Even the story of Gumnami baba might well have been an attempt to

I am curious to understand the process of a child’s psyche — how and when it begins to develop. I am currently 8 weeks pregnant. How can I support my child during this journey? Also, how can I approach this as a Sadhana? 😊🙏🏻🌻🤱🏼👼🏼[…]

February 23, 2026

The psyche of a child begins to be influenced by the mother right from the point of conception. It is the point of intention that

I had a dream at night, where I first saw the house in which we live now. Then, after that, just like this house, there is a slightly different house which is lying vacant, and there is no door on one side. 🏚️⛈️🦎[…]

February 22, 2026

The dream signifies that you are able to enter your inner being which is now safe from the assault of the world forces to which

When I start with “The Upanishads” by Sri Aurobindo, intellectually it drags me more and more into the ocean, with the Divine waves pushing me with a huge force, that I suddenly pull myself out, unable to bear the breathlessness. 😵‍💫💫🌻😇✨[…]

February 22, 2026

But they are two very different works with very different purposes. As far as the equivalent of Bhagawadam and Ramayana is concerned one has to

How to deal with psychological fears while doing yoga. I am vulnerable to it. I stop my surrender process if suddenly a fear comes in that, “your body won’t be able to take the Mother’s energy”. It says, “This yoga is only for powerful people and you are unfit to realise the divine in this birth.” 😰🌼❤️‍🔥

February 22, 2026

These doubts and suggestions come to many who take up the yoga, paradoxically even more to those who are marked for the spiritual life. You

Alok da, I am kind of having a vague intuition but not entirely being able to place where exactly AI, as a tool of “Intelligence’ really fits within the vast multilayered Psychological-Metaphysical-Cosmological vision that Sri Aurobindo provides. 🤔🤖🦋🌻[…]

February 22, 2026

First thing first. All powers of nature are in their essence formless or ‘disembodied’. They use bodies formed by nature to express and manifest their

Then only prayers associated with faith surely reach the Mother. Then what about emotional prayers? When a child is crying in front of the picture of the Mother. Do all these prayers reach the Mother? 😊🙏🏻🪷

February 21, 2026

A prayer rising on crest of emotion is true prayer. Emotions imply faith. It is the mind, especially the physical mind that brings …

You mentioned in videos that the Divine can’t give a person punishment or grief in life to make him suffer so that the person becomes better, because that is not a viable definition of God. God, as kind as He is, won’t inflict suffering on anyone, nor will He be happy to see someone going through ordeals. 🙄🦋🪻✨[…]

February 21, 2026

Yes it is quite correct and seems contradictory. But if you see closely, the Divine tears the list of desires because He has better things

Mother (Maa) stated an important statement, “Truth cures.” Then, if one started living in the domain of Truth Zone, through his actions, thoughts as far as possible, (as the ultimate truth is a vast thing.) Then may he be free from any disease? 🙂🙏🏻🌻[…]

February 21, 2026

One may experience the ‘zone or state of Truth’ for a few moments or even, let us say, practices it in speech and actions, yet
