AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Dear Alok da,as you may know, there will be a partial solar eclipse on 29th March. I don’t think it is just a coincidence that it falls on the same day as the Mother’s first arrival in Pondicherry. Could you please explain to me the significance of this event?

Solar eclipse works both ways. By cutting the direct impact of the energies of the sun it can set in gloom and despair in the susceptible, but at the same time, greatly increase the aspiration in those who are ready. That is the lesson of the story of Hanuman, who as a child, rushes towards the sun at around the same time when the eclipse is about to set in. 

What it means therefore is that while it would bring fear and its consequences in the mind and hearts of the evil doers who, in the rush of the moment may increase their dark activities, it will also increase the aspiration in those who are destined to cross over to the New Creation. 

Falling on the 29th March when the Mother met Sri Aurobindo implies that the power of the Divine Forces, the supramental will be too strong for the darkness to bear. Their coming out in the open will be only a prelude to their exposure and destruction. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Many, many, many experiences come. It is best not to get too much into analysing, understanding them else one can easily get distracted or the ego may get puffed up. It is like getting delayed by the scenery on the way. Stay focused on giving oneself more and more to the Divine, growing in faith, sincerity, love and surrender,…

Someone asked me whether Sri Aurobindo has adopted the ideas from Hegel and Kant. How can I reply to him? Please help me and refer to some books.  📚🧠✨

People who make such remarks are unfortunately very poorly informed about either Bergson and Kant let alone Sri Aurobindo whom they have certainly not read. 

Sri Aurobindo’s major works include two treatises on the Vedas including a deep and intricate study of Vedic philology, the major Upanishads with a detailed commentary on the Isha and Kena, detailed essays on the Gita, Foundations of Indian Culture. His two most important works has, one, the story of Savitri as a base; the second,..
