AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Dear Alok da, is getting married, buying a house, and achieving all the materialistic milestones what society considers as “being settled”? Is that truly the case? How can we discover our own definition of being settled😏?

One is never settled with these outer things because man does not live by bread alone and a home is not made by bricks alone. Human beings are programed to remain unsettled of sort until they find a meaning and purpose of their life. House, money, position etc can provide some outer comfort and a framework for physical life and vital existence. But the mind and soul seek higher and deeper things always. Of course there are a class of human beings who are human in appearance but whose deeper emotional, intellectual and spiritual life is largely asleep. They may feel satisfied with these material things for a while though even they are restless wanting more and more or saving and growing their earnings. Desires and ambitions never let a man rest even if he has outwardly everything in the world. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Being a Tomboy or experiencing protective feelings as well as comparisions with other women does not suggest that one is a lesbian or a bisexual. What matters is a clear sexual orientation, of  feeling physical attraction towards the same gender. All the rest is a …

I wanted to share two Dreams that I had today: where I was in an open, dry, yellowish forest space… felt like Auroville, and suddenly there were many birds that came in front of us (me, my brother, and one more person). 💭🕊️🐆🚘🛌🏼💤[…]

The rainbow birds seem to be various desires and the leopard is a force that wants to devour you cunningly. Most likely it is fear.

The second dream is again the attack of some vital force which melts away by calling The Mother’s Name….
