AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I am 40 yet my mother criticizes me and taunts me all the time, I can’t answer back as she will throw a tantrum and yet I have to listen to her. I am tired of her complaints as no matter what I do is not enough for her, how can I handle her ? 

This relation is not healthy and the more you try to make her happy the worse it is likely to become. You have to learn to detach yourself decoupling your life from her apart from the duty that one owes towards parents so long as one is in the world and discover you own life, aims, interests beyond her.

Affectionately,

Alok da.

Respected Alok da, when you realised Maa is everything and in everything. Then, if you go for Puja Rituals like Brata-Upabasha according to Hindu Dharma (you see Mother in every Gods), then is that insincerity to Maa? Should I do it or not? 🙄🙏🏻👨🏻‍👩🏻‍👧🏻‍👦🏻🛕🌸

As far as I am concerned everything else dropped naturally, effortlessly. I was anyways not much into rituals and knew that many of these things are aadambar and have little to do with Hindu Dharma. Neither the Gita nor the…
