AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Dear Sir, I want to know whether can I visit Sri aurobindo’s and Mother’s room ๐Ÿ˜‡on my birthday? I am very eager to visit their rooms and sit for sometime. If not then on which dates can we see their rooms?

Sri Aurobindo’s room is no more accessible on birthdays. However it opens on the 15th August,ย  24th November,ย  05th December and the 24th April.ย  On 21st February and 29th February both the Mother’s room as well as Sri Aurobindo’s room opens. On the 17th November the Mother’s room opens.

However nowadays things are in a flux and hence one should check before coming.ย 

The other thing to organise is the accommodation which is very difficult in February and August.  November 17th to 05th December is a very good period to come.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Hello sir. Since childhood, I have remained deprived of true love and real concern for me, even from my parents and siblings. Now, my married life has turned into a horrible situation. How to overcome such bitter experiences of life and become a true servant of the mother and Sri Aurobindo? ๐Ÿ’—๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Namaste Sir. In one quote, the Mother has said: “Give up trying, give up the will to progress, give up the aspirations for realisation, give up everything and say to the lord in all sincerity, let thy will be done.” If we give up everything, what will make us to work and search for the divine? ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธโœจ

It is the penultimate stage of sadhana somewhat like Sri Krishna’s final injunction to Arjuna, sarvadharmanparityajya, to give up all Dharmas and take refuge in Him alone. Give up trying is not same as do not try. It means that one has tried, possibly tried hard but nothing much or at least decisive happened. It is then …

โ€‹As you mentioned that instead of taking scriptures literally, one should understand their true essence, I have one final question in this regard:โ€‹ What is the true spiritual essence or underlying message behind the verse (12.13.13) that speaks of donating the Srimad Bhagavatam on a golden throne on Bhadrapada Purnima? ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿชท๐Ÿ” […]

That is exactly what I am trying to tell you. If we take every verse of the Srimadabhagawatam as if it is originally said and hence to be practiced and followed literally then we fall into the same trap as the Mullahs. Each Scripture has seen additions made by unscrupulous minds for vested personal interests. Srimadabhagawatam is no exception. Do you really believe that after all the beautiful uplifting things spoken of in ..
