Questions on Mother, Sri Aurobindo and Savitri

This  new creation, and the needed transformations are  fully done by  Sri Aurobindo and The Divine Mother without any external help. So it’s enough, if we  keep ourselves open to their Grace, the needed spiritual transformation will happen. So for them, no necessity to explain or elaborate, “Savitri”, our sincere attempt itself will do the needed understanding, by their grace are my thoughts right? 🤍🕊️📜♾️

If one can sincerely open and surrender to the Divine Mother with faith then that is enough. Several letters of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother

Also I find some summary and explanations for Savitri in Google. Also One lady, was taking class on Savitri line by line in Savitri bavan. So I want to know how authentic these explanations are? and is  it needed to follow as we keep  teachers in English classes  for explaining the poem from your answers?It’s clear to me, it’s a mystic poem to be understood   in the heart by The Grace of The Master. And it may differ from person to person, time to time.📜♾️🤍🕊️ 

Actually the mind gets often into an either or position. But if we look at it little widely then there is a place for both.

As I am immersing myself on a daily basis into Savitri I was asking myself if I can also listen to it while at the office working or walking down the street? Normally I read it aloud in the evening and listen to it before sleeping. But i was wondering if I can also play in the background while at work in the office – while still being aware that it is most beneficial to listen to it with complete focus and a silent mind?🕊️🤍☀️📜♾️

Yes of course, the more one immerses oneself in the Divine Name, the Divine Vibrations, whether waking, sleeping, walking, exercising, resting, working, driving, the better

Alok Bhai, only you can resolve this confusion in my mind. During a discussion on a serious matter between Mother and Sri Aurobindo, it was decided that if necessary, he would leave his body, and Mother would stay here for the physical transformation, because her body was more capable of performing this task. After his passing, it seemed very difficult for Mother to stay here, and Pranab Da had to constantly look after her.After the discussion between the Lord and Mother, what was it that made it so difficult for her to stay here?☀️🪷👑👑🌌

I didn’t quite understand the difficulty. She is the Divine Mother, the Supreme Creatrix, ‘the Shakti of Sri Aurobindo’ as Sri Aurobindo as he himself

In one of the video from online I came to understand the 4 aspects of the mother. Maheswari, Mahakali, Mahalakshmi and Mahasaraswati. But in another there is a discussion about Ananda aspect of The Mother, which brings splendor of power and love and intensity of Divine joy unknown to the earth so far. Could you please elaborate little more on this aspect. Can we consider it as a fifth aspect of The Mother?🤱🌏🌌♾️

The four aspects of the Divine Mother mentioned by Sri Aurobindo in his wonderful book The Mother refers to the aspects that have so far

I could not understand completely the below portion of “A Dream” by Sri Aurobindo: “… that they considered the mechanical observance of the external rules of conduct as spiritual merit…My questions: 1) “…that they considered the mechanical observance of the external rules of conduct as spiritual merit”. What does this mean?📜✨🌌✍️

It means that observing the rules and rituals of religion, keeping fasts, visiting holy places mechanically does no good. It is merely useless dust. This

We recently met on Mother’s departure day. I have been listening to a lot of your speeches and found something twice I dint understand or confused about. Something about being very strict with dietary restrictions was mentioned. I have turned vegetarian when I was 15 and never looked back. What I dint understand was whether we follow a god/ guru or not, having principles, values in our lives (like being a strict vegetarian in this case) is not a bad thing right? 🍲🍛🥗🍰

I am happy that you asked this genuine doubt.

Let us go step by step about it.

Do The Mother and Sri Aurobindo encourage taking

Had Sri Aurobindo seen the future road map of the Supramental Force descending to Earth’s atmosphere, after the 1st meeting with The Mother? Or did it come on the way? If he had already seen that, then why didn’t he explain all these to the Mother? Then Mother would stay there permanently instead of returning & second coming events &…, as I have not read the 1st meeting of Sri Aurobindo with The Mother yet. ☀️🪷🧘‍♂️✨🌏

Both Sri Aurobindo and The Mother were independently conscious of the work and the mission of establishing the Divine Consciousness here upon earth. They knew
