AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How to be totally surrender towards the mother? How can we surrender our mind, vital, lower part, physical and it’s difficulties to the mother? Recently i read Sri Aurobindo’s letter where the letter essence is if your surrender is not complete then you will not escape these difficulties. Spontaneously egoistic thought, feeling, lust coming and it is feeling suffocating or pain in lower part. How to be surrender our lower part which is going their own way? What is the right way to deal this stages🤨?

Surrender does not mean lack of effort. That would be tamasic surrender and will not bring any result. It means now my life is meant for the Divine Mother. Hence think of the Mother, meditate upon Her writings and reject doubts as well as misuse of mental faculties.

It means also not to harbour anger, jealousy, fear, hate and try to love the divine element in everyone. 

It means to turn your life into Her Service and to use the body only for Her purposes. 

All this requires long time, great sincerity and persistent effort. One has to be very patient and full of faith. The sign that you are proceding in the right direction will be growth of inner peace, equanimity and joy.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Many, many, many experiences come. It is best not to get too much into analysing, understanding them else one can easily get distracted or the ego may get puffed up. It is like getting delayed by the scenery on the way. Stay focused on giving oneself more and more to the Divine, growing in faith, sincerity, love and surrender,…

Someone asked me whether Sri Aurobindo has adopted the ideas from Hegel and Kant. How can I reply to him? Please help me and refer to some books.  📚🧠✨

People who make such remarks are unfortunately very poorly informed about either Bergson and Kant let alone Sri Aurobindo whom they have certainly not read. 

Sri Aurobindo’s major works include two treatises on the Vedas including a deep and intricate study of Vedic philology, the major Upanishads with a detailed commentary on the Isha and Kena, detailed essays on the Gita, Foundations of Indian Culture. His two most important works has, one, the story of Savitri as a base; the second,..
