AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

But what should I do in this case? Do I stop talking to her till I get rid of this sexual thought? If I do so, maybe she will feel I am cheating her. It is also difficult to get rid of it. Because On the other hand, an intense urge of sexual thought coming to me. 🌿🧘🙏🏻 […]

I think I am trapped in the hands of hostile force. I have tried to get rid of it. But unable to avoid it. Mean when her phone call comes automatically a sexual vibration run through my body automatically. Or can I slowly, slowly get rid of it one day?

If I will cease or hold this thought for a while & tell myself & praying to the mother please help me to get rid from it. It also requires some strength. What is the actually proper procedure? As it’s a very enjoyable thing so it’s difficult to get rid of it. Many say it’s an age problem. But I think if one can hold these energy during this age (22-30). He can do anything for the divine mother. But where it’s possible. Forces & environment & also the body’s biological construction do not permit us to do & to maintain a healthy life. Or have I developed a wrong psychology/ thought that only brahmacharis are the great? What is the mechanism behind this?

One cannot get rid of sexual thoughts by forcefully suppressing them, especially at your age and the circumstances of your life. The world is full of these vibrations. It is not a question of this or that girl or boy. The whole world is in its grip and promotes the sex appeal. Knowing this difficulty, the ancient world tried the principle of marrying one woman, number of women, prostitution, punishing promiscuity, complete withdrawal into sannyas, but nothing has truly worked. You will leave this girl, but the unchanged nature will push you to find another. Better, at your age and circumstances, to practice sanyama, moderation, than nigraha, abstinence. 

Besides this, to stay busy and do vigorous exercise. Turn the mind away into some work when these thoughts come. Slowly, these will begin to fade as your main energy is directed towards some high aim. Otherwise, these lower energies keep circulating and finding ways and means to enter. Light up the fire of aspiration and turn your efforts, thoughts and will towards some high spiritual goal. 

Meanwhile, read Sri Aurobindo and The Mother so that the mind and thoughts get cleansed by their Force.

I feel completely lost on my path and overwhelmed by academic and inner struggles that may force me to leave my PhD. Unable to burden my parents, I carry this pain alone, yet whenever I look at the Mother’s photograph, an intense guilt arises that my mistakes are too many and that it is too late to fix anything. 🙏🏻💛[…]

One can never be lost enough as to not connect with Her. In fact, the more we feel lost, the more we should call Her and connect with Her. Who else one would call? She is The Mother and She would very much want that Her children call Her in distress rather than sink into despair. There is no error She cannot rectify, no mistake She …

One cannot deny that there is some truth in the statement. When machines took over, the labourer and the workers were threatened. When big Corporates came up, small businesses felt threatened. So too with the drones taking over the battlefield the warriors role is changing. Robocops may be next. Similarly will impact the knowledge based work. However the change will be a shift of roles as we see in the other examples. AI will still be …

Alok da, I have been observing two persistent, conflicting movements within my being that I struggle to understand. First, despite my conscious mind recognizing negative thoughts like jealousy, rivalry, or criticism as useless, something deep within still gives in and derives a strange, perverse pleasure from them. 🪞🙏🏻[…]

Human beings are a bundle of contraries. All of us carry these contradictory aspects which takes time to be reconciled or bridged. The process of true reconciliation begins by finding the psychic being which automatically widens us and sees the real and unreal defects of others with generosity and compassion. But the critical mind takes almost a perverse pleasure in fault-finding though most often its assessments are mistaken as it sees only a …
