AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Life Problems And Psychological Difficulties

Why this happens ? when you deeply long for certain things—whether it’s a relationship or something else in life—you desire it with all your heart, but you also want it now. You feel restless, thinking, what’s the point if I get it after a few years or in old age? I need it now, I crave it desperately now, I don’t want it later😪.

It is the usual way that the vital desire and the ego-self operates. It thinks only about oneself and the want, like in a state

“Follow your passion” some people say. I am stuck a little. I have a broad direction in which I want my life to develop — in service of the nation. At the same time, the scope of different careers is so wide that I don’t know what is best for me! A part of me wants to study something very practical which will enable me to realise this vision even if I don’t like the subject in and of itself (for example, studying finance). Another part of me wants me to do something that I would intrinsically enjoy studying (for example, music or history). However, I doubt whether choosing this path will enable me to develop the skills or knowledge that will be of much use when it comes to making impactful change in society. Can you suggest how I can develop clarity on this? I definitely agree with people who say that you can only succeed in and be happy doing something that you feel passionate about. But isn’t this idea slightly overrated? Shouldn’t one be able to enjoy and succeed in whatever one does, no matter what it is? Even if it’s not something one enjoyed doing as a child or doesn’t have a natural predisposition towards😠?

We should first differentiate between what we are naturally drawn towards by our innate temperament and predilection. It is more of an inborn inclination whose

I’m preparing for medical entrance examinations. But sir I can not understand what is reality behind all these things? An unknown thought kills me always😨. I can not keep balance in between my mind thoughts and my heart suggestions. But I firmly believe in The Mother. I know she will definitely guide me on me life path. But always I feel guilty that am I doing anything wrong. I can sometimes identify my mistakes but can’t overcome them. They always trap me with here and there thoughts. Sir what should I do. I want to read more and more but the real things. I read my study books but can’t link them. I don’t get the real joy of study. Sir please give me some suggestions

First of all there is no place for guilt. We constantly grow and as we grow we re evaluate life and learn and improve. This

If you are besieged with difficulties then try to go deep and understand their nature. Difficulties are in fact concealed opportunities for growth. they challenge

My father is being suffering from schizophrenia from his teenage but no one really observed it but with time it’s worsen since last 10 years. His behavior is completely changed and he is became really very weird. He’s clinically diagnosed with schizophrenia before 3 months. Now his medication is going on. After taking medication his aggressiveness came down but his thought process is still same. Before few years he was really very spiritual, hygienic and kind. But now he became atheist, unhygienic (not bathing for weeks) and furious. So, My query is what else we can do after medication to change him back to his own personality. At the end I want you to guide me through the light of The Mother😰.

The first thing that is necessary is to ensure that medicines are given in time and regular contact with the treating doctor maintained. Regarding other

Dada why I am behaving like a stupid. I can’t find out my way. Somewhere I listened that only reciting of the Mother’s name is enough for the starting of new journey towards transformation. But now I became the battle field. Always my mind thoughts and heart fights in between them. I can not hear to my hearts words. Always something is going on in my mind. Da what should I do😣?

Reciting the Mother’s Name is very powerful and the one supreme support of sadhana. But it is also good to cultivate faith and sincerity as

Why we are  trapped by affection and love by our family members, relatives, friends and all these things. What is our true relationship with them.The Mother and Sri Aurobindo brings this eternal victory against death. That is death of death and manifest the Supramental being. Savitri didn’t let Jamaraj to bring Satyavan take with him. She could not bear his death, she fought against death and got victory against it. Is it possible to all human being. Can they also achieve it? Death is the necessary thing to learn and to grow up. But why immortality should manifest? Lots of questions arises in my mind Dada. What should I do🫤? 

We can continue the school analogy here too. Affection, attachments etc are not traps of illusion but steps and stages of our schooling. Just as

Integrity to soul vs integrity to somebody else. I feel it’s a fine line and vulnerable to misuse in the name of soul integrity. But supposing somebody is following a higher call of the soul which comprises integrity to somebody else resulting in having to hide, lie, conceal etc. One side – there is following the true need – but does not lying, concealing etc. lower the consciousness ? Should we not always speak truth, be honest 🫤? Supposing the person you’ve lied to comes to find out – will that not results in a deep hurt and scars? Where is the line between selfishness and following a higher call and need ?

Absolutely true. Lying, deception etc are as far from the true soul life as earth from the heaven. It is also true that all scriptures

Sometimes, you eagerly wait for a difficult situation to end because it feels exhausting and overwhelming. You keep wondering when it will finally be over. But when it does, instead of feeling relieved, you experience an emptiness, as if you’ve lost something meaningful. You might even start longing for that situation again, despite the struggles it brought, forgetting how difficult it actually was. Why does it happens😥?

It is because the vital energy was engaged in it. When the situation is over, the energy is released but then it is not directed

I’m losing my capacity to act as per my will. I find often that I’m going back on my commitment that I make to others or I’m often late to events. Also, these days, I’m noticing that my fluency in speech and writing has gone down. I’m making mistakes, and even while arguing in debates, discussions, I find myself making flawed arguments.😏[Conti]

Try practicing meditation with the Gaytri mantra and cut down on sex and wasteful activities. Play games and stay happy doing the work that engages
