AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Could you please explain a little more about the four brothers? Who are the four brothers this quote refers to? Which one was manifested in Champaklal ji? -๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป […]

‘1926 โ€” While giving Sri Aurobindoโ€™s dish to me Mother said: The Being which we want to manifest in you demands complete surrender. They are four brothers: one of them wants to manifest in you and he is waiting for you to be ready. He wishes that I should work in you.’

The four brothers, in this context,ย  are mentioned only in Champaklal ji’s reminiscence. As far as I remember they are faith, aspiration, sincerity and surrender. They are the four pillars of immortality, the four Godheads whom the Mother was bringing down in the disciples as the four pillars of Immortality. Champaklal ji was aspiration; Tirupati was faith. Kanai was surrender. I am not sure about the fourth one. However, this noting is not found anywhere in the Mother’s writings and there may be an error in its transcription and, as I said, I don’t remember the names exactly. Some people try to relate it to the four original Divine Powers, the four Godheads, or even, as some would say, to the four Sanatkumar rishis. But these are speculations and in the absence of direct confirmation or validation in the Mother’s or Sri Aurobindo’s writings, it is best not to pay too much attention to these things and focus on the one thing needful, – The Mother.ย 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

You had said in the previous mail that all modes of nature tamas, sattwa and rajas are useful. But I am unable to understand how tamas is useful for a human being. ๐ŸŒฟโš–๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Tamas pulls back the Rajas when it goes overboard. It is what induces in creation the urge for rest and sleep without which there would be, for most human beings, a breakdown due to the overrunning and over excitement of the system. After all the entire animal world is maintained by the balance between the force of rajas and ..

I had a dark, unsettling dream where I was traveling through dense woods, attacked by a hostile woman, and surrounded by stampeding, giant beast-like creatures. Amid this ominous gloomโ€”broken only by a brief glimpse of the rising morning star heralding dawnโ€”I found myself fiercely shielding an innocent young boy from these crude, predatory giants who had shapeshifted into ordinary men. ๐ŸŒ™๐Ÿ›ก๏ธโญ[…]

The dream is once again indicative of certain inner movements. The child is your soul and the dense forest is the lower vital regions strongly under the influence of dark subconscious forces. The horse is your life energy, the vital being struggling to rescue the child. Meeting these giants in human forms is again the deceptive forces of …

In corporate, I meet some people who are Cunning and envious. They smile in front of you, but you know they are jealous of you and are internally plotting to go over you. They are so ingenuine and fake, no matter how much you are honestly have goodwill for them. ๐Ÿข๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿชท[…]

The first thing to do is to ignore all that does not concern us and the work. One should be completely indifferent to what people are or do, let alone what they may be thinking and feeling. By letting our mind enter into thoughts about what they are or might be thinking, we get unwittingly identified with them. For there is in us …
