AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How can one find the difference between Ego and self respect within one self🧐?

Self respect is a healthy form of ego needed to keep the true soul individuality while it is developing. It is like a toothless lion or a defanged snake which is certainly less dangerous to others. But if the defanged snake forgets to hiss or the toothless lion forgets to roar then it will become an easy prey to all kinds of forces in the world.

But once the psychic being is discovered and one is in contact with the Divine Presence then it is impossible to feel insulted. Then the respect is not based on the ego-self anymore and it is the Divine Presence that takes care of everything. Like the serpent around Shiva’s neck and the lion below Durga’s feet the ego becomes only an instrument of the Divine. One acts then no more because of personal hurts but to stay the march of adharma.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

“Within you is a psychic being—a divine being, a direct portion of the Mother, pure and untouched by all these defects. It is hidden and covered by ordinary consciousness and nature. But when its covering is removed and it becomes able to come forward and take control, it transforms the ordinary consciousness, casts out all these undivine elements, and thoroughly transforms the outer nature.” – Sri Aurobindo. How will the psychic being come forward and change our nature? 😊🙏🏻❤️‍🔥🌷
