AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Spirituality

Sir, we have desires, but one cannot demand more than a form. If someone imagines the infinite, they use things like the ocean or the sky, which are forms in themselves. Even the concept of the formless is an attempt to give it a form. The poetry of poets is also in these forms; it attempts to express truth, beauty, love, and everything else within these forms. Sir, can we desire something beyond form? For that, we first need to know of its existence; and if we know that it exists, it will take on a form because we have a mind, is that correct🤔?

Yes, to arrive at the Formless we have to go through the doors of form. To arrive at the infinite we have to go beyond

What is the difference in integral yoga and vaishnav bhakti yoga. In vaishna yoga surrender is the mean for sadhana and many great vaishnav saints have achieved the highest realization. In vaishnav literature we found the psychic transformation which express through many bhakti sangit, bhajan etc. If the psychic transformation can prepared us another two transformation so why the great bhakti yogis are not speak about supramental? Really I don’t know what is supramental and why it is necessary for mankind? If through bhakti the psychic transformation is happening then is it right to those great bhakts have realised that state they have also go through this purification of nature and they have fought in nature level, if it is true then why Sri Aurobindo says this is new yoga? I can’t understand it. Dada Can you clarify my doubt🙄.

Vaishnava bhakti, in fact any true bhakti as we see in certain forms of Christian Yoga, Sufism, Shakta bhakti can all lead to psychic realisation,

In 1st time when we enter to this yoga then we feel the psychic devotion and aspiration towards the mother and lord. But after some long time why we loose this contact and facing the challenges of nature, whether it like great or tiny challenge? In which attitude we will face this problem and can be establish the same contact with the divine through psychically🙂?

This happens to all because we are not composed of one part. At the first the part that is most open is touched under the

Sri Aurobindo writes about Mahalakshmi as embodying harmony and beauty in thoughts, feelings, actions, and outward movements. However, most of us know Mahalakshmi or lakshmi only as the goddess of wealth and seek her blessings primarily for financial gains. If our desire is solely for wealth, to whom should we pray🙏? And is she not related to money?

Mahalakshmi is related primarily to inner wealth. Now when we try to cultivate beauty and harmony within and around with people and forces and the

In a very famous ashram in south India, I noticed that Shiva is worshipped mainly with dhyan and yog sadhana while the same of Devi Linga Bhairavi is performed with all rituals and different types of seva. Their explanation for this difference was not quite satisfactory. If you do not find this question silly, can you please explain what could be the necessity and science behind the ritualistic worship of Devi🧐?

Shiva is Purusha or the inactive, passive aspect of the Divine and hence he is approached through dhyan. Devi is…

Please explain Prakriti in simple words. Mainly the distinction of Lower & Higher Prakriti. I tried a few articles available in Auromaa.org on this subject but could not get a clear understanding. Can we simply say that all the nurturing forces of life like love, wisdom, strength, prosperity etc in the universe constitute Higher Prakriti and hindering forces like ignorance, laziness, lust, anger, unchecked desires etc fall under Lower Prakriti? Is higher prakriti the same as Parvati & Radha to whom we worship🤨?

Prakriti is the executing force that does everything according to the wisdom and power or the secret intelligence hidden in her. This is self evident.

Many people ask me why I don’t enjoy life the way others do. I don’t smoke, drink, party, or dance. Instead, I prefer spending time alone, sitting by the beach🌊 or in the mountains🏔️, and reading the works of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. Some even say, “Why spend your whole day immersed in spirituality? Enjoy life a little!” They tell me I can focus on such things when I’m 60. But is there really an age for this?

People have a very limited idea of enjoyment and even more limited idea of spirituality. Personally I feel the joy of being alone, with oneself
