AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How can I develop unwavering faith😕? Living away from Pondicherry, I don’t have access to a Mother’s center, and I have no communication with other devotees except through social media. This makes me feel very isolated on my spiritual journey

I can understand this genuine need. Perhaps it is one of the reasons why we see certain internet groups that have come up where one can share words of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.  If you wish I could put your whatsapp number (in case you share) into one of the groups. 

At the same time you could start a little study circle at your place if there are some devotees or interested people around. 

It also helps if you travel to the Ashram here, in Pondicherry, and get recharged and return back to your place,  at least once a year. It helps in the blossoming of faith and devotion and in the growth of the psychic being. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

You don’t need to join an Ashram to end this suffering which is primarily due to a gross mismatch between mutual expectations. Not going into the deeper dynamics, he doesn’t seem to be capable of a stable and strong relationship with one person. This is a reality. If you continue with him it will be an open ended relationship which is becoming more common these days due to the changing norms and patterns of the society itself. On the one hand it becomes quite painful to someone who is seeking a beautiful psychic togetherness where fidelity, loyalty …
