AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How do we know that the Purple Light that we might see in Meditation is real and not imagination?πŸ’œβš›οΈπŸ•‰οΈβ˜‚οΈ

As a thumb rule for all these experiences, if one wants to see something, then the vision could be doubtful, as the mind can very well formulate things. But if one sees something spontaneously, the chances are it is true.

Secondly, all inner experiences have to be accompanied by a certain subjective psychological state or will show up sooner or later manifest their symbol in the outer world.Β 

At the same time, one should not be attached to any of these experiences and wait for the definitive ones, that is to say, Peace, Wisdom, stillness, freedom from lower movements, increasing identification with the Divine. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I am trying to be aware while falling asleep while chanting God’s name, is this good approach? Can we use sleep as a tool to realize individual soul. It is said that we often come in contact with individual soul when we go to sleep. So If one really wants to realize its own nature as individual soul very fast. What should one do? Is it possible to realize one self..πŸŒŒπŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈπŸŒŠπŸ•―οΈ

Spiritual disciplines advice us to be steady but not impatient. The vital tries to realise things with great impatience and hence it either stumbles or else fabricates experiences. The swiftest way is self-giving, giving oneself to the Divine Mother completely and unreservedly. Still it takes time because rest of our nature is not ready….
