AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How do some people move from one relationship to another so quickly, almost overnight? Do they not have feelings, or do they simply not care about the emotions of the person they leave behind? It’s heartbreaking how relationships that once seemed so deep filled with words like “I love you so much” and “You’re my everything”—can end so badly. Were those words ever real, or do people change so easily? Now they will say the same words to other person. How can someone who once cherished you now walk away so easily with someone else, hurt you, and immediately start a new relationship as if nothing happened? Do they ever reflect on the pain they cause to other😪?

It is difficult to generalise such things and, i must say very very rare to move suddenly overnight. Generally a build up is taking place behind the facade of happy exterior, a growing inner unhappiness in the relationship for whatever reasons. During this phase one is quite vulnerable and has a tendency to shift grounds, withdraw or find a new partner. This certainly doesn’t happen overnight and if it does then it simply indicates that the person claiming to love was a big imposter. 

As to words people say many things without meaning them often with ulterior motives of which sometimes even they may not be conscious as caught in a web of deceptive forces. That is why it has been said that do not trust the words blindly unless they are supported with actions that are commensurate. In any case once such a thing happens it is best not to get into a complaining mode. Instead of that one should reflect within and see what could have been charged from our side without blaming oneself or the partner and then go about one’s own life towards the future. 

Affectionately,

When I was dropping her off at school, she asked me: Mummy, hum knife se body ko katte hain to Aatma kyu nahi marti… I replied: Kyuki Gita me likha hain ki Aatma ajar hain, amar hain. Then she asked me: Aesa kya hain jo wo nahi mar sakti. She is not satisfied with my answer da. 👧🏼👩🏻‍👧🏻🪷🌻

Beautiful question. You can give her some examples of material things that cannot be killed or destroyed by knife, for example water, air, fire, space. Energy also cannot be destroyed. So too thoughts and feelings and will cannot be destroyed by any external force. This way she will understand that there are many things even within the…

My brother recently had a daughter. This made me read and explore more about that subject. I understand that the soul chooses to take human birth to progress further, but does it also choose the family or parents through whom to come into this human vital world? 👧🏼🪷🌻✨

Choosing the parents happens when the psychic being is developed and able to chose the conditions of earthly life into details. Until then it is only a general choice about the conditions and not particular details. Until a certain degree of development is completed the psychic being only goes by a …

Sri Aurobindo writes in “The web of yoga”, “We can pass into the Paratpara Brahman, but we can’t know the Paratpara Brahman.” Does it mean attaining Nirvanam, The Total Merger, that nothing individual is left? So knowing is not possible in Nirvanam. Am I right in my understanding? 💫💖🪷✨

Yes because knowing implies a competition between the knower and the known. We can therefore become Brahman not know IT as know an object. We can lose ourselves into …
