Relationships

In my life, I got married twice, one in a very young age in a family and the other in love and love is love if it is in seed form inside and with that love if both have the desire to walk together on the path of yoga then what is the need to leave and if a girl has truly accepted someone as her husband from her heart then how can she spend her life with someone else, Dada, I do not have the courage to tell my second wife that you should leave me or I cannot keep you with me or you should marry someone else, if I tell from my heart then I want her to come with me, how can anyone leave his wife who is ready to walk on yoga with him? Or how can he spend his life with someone else?💍🏡✨💏

I live in a small nuclear family with my wife, a kid and with my mother, there is always a presence of disturbing environment where we don’t talk to each other. Although the reason is minor, but I’m not very sure about the fact that why this circumstance situation is happening whether it is my ego or it is something which I don’t know. I constantly try to ask Maa for help, although I know Help will come eventually, but what should I do at this moment? Should I ask the person to also change, which is not easy and other other person is more of a non Bhakta?🏠💔🤫👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Also Alok da, age doesn’t matter right? If it didn’t happen till now, that too was divine will. I was hoping was him to just appear all these years. Had just started to doubt myself a little. Brokers were suggesting divorced boys. I am not okay with it. So got a little anxious. Divorce is not a small thing right? The way people are taking it so casually now. Does leave a karmic scar right? They say I am wrong to not consider them. 💍💑💒👰

It is best not to mix things which belong to different orders of Reality. It will create confusion. For example karmic scar, etc. The karmic

I feel I have no hope that I will meet a life partner that is a good fit. I grew up in the states and even amid a culture where dating was expected, I never fit in and instead stayed sheltered and avoided many aspects of my life to a point where I feel everything from ages 0-25 was a blur for many reasons — and while I have been okay with being chronically single for all this time and lived my life mostly in my head, it’s lately becoming unbearable as I grow older and as I feel like I don’t have any control over it. 🔍 ⏳💔 👤

It is a difficulty that many experience. Partly due to the cinema portrayal of an ideal relationship and partly due to an obsessive streak for

I think I’m emotionally dependent and scared of being alone. I still don’t fully understand what the future will look like — whether my family will move, whether Mom will be emotionally stable and how everything will unfold. When I see other families together and doing fine financially, it makes me restless about both of them. I feel afraid because I don’t know what they’ve decided, and I don’t know if the coming years will be okay for all of us😰💸🧾

I understand your worries. Human beings worry because they want the future to be shaped in a certain way. They try to foresee and plan

When life feels heavy like everything is crumbling and when one is utterly helpless and cannot support a loved one. And of course, these life situations have weeded out family and friends showing the painful reality of relationships. How is one supposed to have faith and work towards the new creation? Like at times like these, all the emotions go towards finding solutions. And all the enthusiasm and positive emotions towards serving the Mother and Sri Aurobindo just vanish-it is like one could care less about the future and new creation because the present is so challenging and has been so for a very long time! It just feels very very hard. How to direct these painful emotions?🧗 🚧⛈️⛓️🥹

These and other challenges are part of the journey of life. Leave the New Creation aside for a moment and see if there is any

I am currently facing some conflict inside myself and wanted your guidance regarding the same. My mother and father live alone, we are 3 sisters (all of us live in the same city) but me being the elder one have always taken their every responsibility. Even after my marriage I have been taking the responsibility of both the houses equally and my in-laws are quite supportive too. Because my sisters won’t handle everything as I do so I feel if I had done this it would be better. But then it’s too much on my shoulders to handle. Should I be guilty? Because I am leaving it to others to do it and am doing anything wrong with my parents??

There is no question of guilt as all the children should look after the parents equally when they need them. However in reality very often

Sometimes we dislike the people in our family. I think I already told you – issues with my brother – jealous of me – envious – I was more intelligent than him at work. More liked by all. Threw me out. Doesn’t want me there. My mother supported him. They gave my father the idea that I should marry not work. Fear. How to get over the hurt and pain?💥🗣️😤🧱💔

We get in life what is best for our progress. The forces of destiny do not work to satisfy our wishes or to fulfil our

I have a parent with mental illness–what I think is borderline personality disorder. I know labels are not always beneficial –but her behaviors line up with this disorder and have helped me get a grip on what is going on. The main facet of this is she is very fixated on me, and if I do not call or reach out, she calls me evil, a bad daughter, threatens suicide. It has gone on for a long time and I am at the point of really creating distance with her as my body feels it cannot handle any more threat. Is the soul behind the person with mental illness–does it just stay completely behind the veil because the vital being has taken over?⛈️🌪️🌫️🔒

It is wonderful to see the way you are taking all this with the perfect attitude of an understanding benevolence as well as detachment and
