AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Divine chooses His instruments from time to time whenever there is a great threat to a nation or world then why Divine did not choose any strong leader like Sardar Vallabh bhai Patel to lead India rather than weak leaders like Gandhiji and Nehru? Because of such weak leaders India suffered partition, lost its land to both Pakistan and China and is suffering till now๐Ÿ˜ก

The Divine does not work arbitrarily in a vacuum. The will of the people and their free choice is an important aspect of the Divine Play. During independence people had invested their faith in Gandhi and Nehru (they still do) rather than in the Divine, or in Sri Aurobindo and Sri Krishna.ย  This wrong will must change first. That is what is gradually happening today.ย 

Affectionately,

From the archetype point of view, the character of the main protagonist (hero) in this film is more like Abhimanyu except that it ends up with a happier fate. Like Abhimanyu, he enters into the enemy ranks from where coming out was near impossible. He is trained but inexperienced, again like Abhimanyu. He is valiant, courageous, puts …

In one of your lectures on โ€œPlanned Action and Divine Action,โ€ you mentioned that when we are praised or felicitated, one should neither deny it nor take personal pride in it. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿชทโœจ[…]

Yes, if one looks within and finds that one has done what best one could do in a given situation, then one should remain inwardly quiet and see why one gets disturbed by the criticism. It is generally either because one expects some appreciation or praise or at least..
