AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Hello Alokda, in one of your talks you said that anyone can attain mukthi by giving up evolution karma if you want to. Can you explain what does it means to attain mukthi in such a way? What does evolution karma mean and attaining higher consciousness through that way? ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

The law of karma is essentially a law of evolution of the Soul as a seed into its full divine possibility, the tree. The soul is not a static sojourner through life and death who is simply suffering meaninglessly in the realm of ignorance. It is growing through the process of life, afterlife and rebirth, taking the different experiences, actions and consequences as feeders to learn and grow into its highest divine possibility, of manifesting some divine potential upon earth. Therefore, Mukti as it is understood today, an escape from the law of karma, means denying this full possibility, of quitting the game before it is over because the game seems too difficult.ย 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

It was due to her tapasya that Sri krishna accepted to bind himself with Sri Aurobindo’s being.
