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

I watched ‘The Odyssey’ today, and I must say it was an Absolute Masterpiece. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Some scenes moved me deeply—especially when Argos, the faithful dog, recognized Odysseus, and when Telemachus realized that the beggar standing before him was actually his father. Those moments felt profoundly symbolic and touched something beyond the story itself. 🎬😯⛵🗾[…]

The Odyssey and The Iliad are truly masterpieces of Homer. I have not watched the film but have read an English translation of the original book. Odysseus comes across as the key instrument like Arjuna in the Mahabharata. He is the favourite of goddess Athena or Maheshwari. Penelope is, if seen with the eye of an Indian, is a Sati, …
