World As It Is

I have observed more and more children in USA and other countries are Autism and have Down syndrome, in fact a friend told me one in every 40 child in USA is autistic, why is this happening? Is it the pressure of the consciousness? Is it Divine way of balancing the universe as Autistic people are simple as they are not cunning or mean or ambitious like they don’t have the mental traits like a mental human have, please shares your view on this🫤. 

It is difficult to say with certainty but a number of factors could be operating.

Vaccination drives since few decades could be responsible for

Energy Vampires 🦇— if after talking to a person you feel completely drained on a regular basis, does this indicate they’re an energy vampire? How to protect ourselves against such people, and how to spot them? The other observation I had is that when I am feeling strong in my vital, I can push back, while when I am feeling vitally low and dull, I become the victim of such people. Hence, the second part of the question is how to develop this vital strength to resist negative influences?

Yes there are sex vampires who draw away energy from others, especially by attracting the victims towards themselves. But this is fortunately not common. There

One thing pains me a lot. I see that people who waste money and resources😠, for example re-constructing homes, breaking and taking down good furniture and replacing it with a new one, wasting electricity in the name of home decorations, wasting water in the name of digging borewells instead of sharing, purchasing what is not required just for the sake of satisfaction and show off, spending lavishly in wedding and the list is endless. Most pathetic thing is that these are the people who have a lot of money while various others strive to fulfill daily needs and try hard to save money to satisfy small- small desires. why such combinations like sensible, spiritual and rich are less? Does it has anything to do with one’s thinking pattern? How can one earn money and be good and sensible at the same time?

Yes it should ideally be so, should have been so, but human beings easily respond to the Asuric temptations of a life of pleasure and

There are four very great events in history, the siege of Troy, the life and crucifixion of Christ, the exile of Krishna in Brindavan and the colloquy with Arjuna on the field of Kurukshetra. The siege of Troy created Hellas, the exile in Brindavan created devotional religion (for before there was only meditation and worship), Christ from his cross humanised Europe, the colloquy at Kurukshetra will yet liberate humanity. Yet it is said that none of these four events ever happened. Can you please explain this, The Mother has explained it but did not understand the whole thing and how they are connected🤔? 

Hellas is the name given to Greece given by the Greeks themselves. The name has been given after Helen who, much like Draupadi, became instrumental

From the 19th century onwards here is this perception that kala purusha invaded the world like never before, right from railways and airplanes shortening distances of the entire globe, static paintings or camera pictures being replaced by moving images like cinema, being able to send messages across continents in micro seconds, one big historical event is immediately faded out into memory by the other one, no solidified identity in terms of occupation or even nation is possible, novels and films with non linear storytelling have erupted, theories about time in physics and studies of evolution in biology, and disciplines like geology etc.. are all deeply intertwined with time flux, there’s a sentence that “everything solid melts into air” in this modern time-era, and with social media humanity is living moment to moment in it’s lowest type, Sri Aurobindo also wrote a piece on kala purusha, How to understand this phenomenon in both it’s good and bad aspects😥?

What we are witnessing is an accelerated evolution at an unprecedented pace. It happens when the Spirit of Time, Kalpurusha, is turning a new page.

I find it bizarre how people with no belief about creation other than the solitary big bang, or no belief at all in any higher power live life ? Like what is even stopping them from just ending their life if they’re miserable? People with mental health disorders and with no grounding to their existence just roam about in misery…I feel there is something in built in humans that doesn’t accept this self gas-lighting intellectual theory that there’s no higher power, and is it this that makes them continue with life? What exactly is the inward instinct that makes them not only continue to roam aimlessly in what they believe is just an accidental happening of useless matter, but also WANT to continue ? I’ve asked people this question, and every time just reply with…”well, that’s life!”….It’s a little amusing but quite frightening also…😏

Absolutely true. Faith in a Creative Power that drives the wheeling of the stars and the Ages building order out of disorder in intuitively ingrained

Today on 26th January, someone casually told me – what’s there to celebrate India’s Republic Day or Independence day when a so many inhuman incidents going on inside India! To which my spontaneous reply was-“Forget not what’s going on just a step outside India” But then I realised this still not justify all that has been happening in India throughout…crime is a crime irrespective of the frequencies and numbers…And all that has been going on is really concerning and leads to a doubt leading ultimately to questioning why there’s not any Divine intervention to uproot the devils roaming in the hides of human and songs of the kind – “Utho Draupadi sastra uthalo..govind ab na aayeinge” reiterate themselves in my mind spontaneously😏..

Celebrating India’s Independence day means that we are happy that India is politically free from the long servitude to the British rule. Political Independence does

The more I see the world, there is an anguish that grows in me at times. I am taught to pray to the divine in those situations. I was asking the mother to help me be conscious of my life purpose, after which, I feel more and more identified with Earth as a being, and so recently, there is an inner need in me to pray for the manifestation of divine will on Earth. I even feel like praying and offering certain natures of certain people I know to the mother for the best for them to happen. Is this okay? To pray to the mother for others, to pray or aspire for increasing the intensity of Earth’s aspiration? Somewhere mother has said that it is better if the person needing change prays on their own instead of someone else praying for them or am I misunderstanding something here? Thank you🙂

To pray for all, even for the wicked and the wretch, is indeed the highest of prayers. Such universal prayers are described in the Bhagawat

Alok da I see all around women getting injections on their faces, getting plastic surgeries, it looks so ugly and fake, why people don’t realise or see that it’s looks so bad, millions of dollars spend to permanently damage one’s body, why do women do this, I feel because though they call them selves modern yet they want to be pleasure object to men or is it that they want to reverse age on the lines of an aspiration to remain young? When will this falsehood stop when will the beauty’s standards change😠 ? 

Women (and Men) who pay an excessive importance to ‘looks’ generally suffer from low self esteem. They are not leading their own true life hence

Alok Da, Please provide a solution to a problem. Sri Aurobindo says that the soul of a nation is not subject to the law of Karma. It would be a great kindness if you could guide us about this. In fact, we see that what imperialist Britain did, it is now having to suffer the consequences. There will be other examples as well. Is India also grappling with the problems it faces today due to its own actions, its own Karma🤨?

The law of karma is a law of evolution through experience and learning rather than of reward and punishment. This happens ordinarily through rebirth because
