AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I am working as a teacher in a CBSE school. I am not able to be very sincere in my work. Many ideas come to my mind to teach children, but not able to put them into practice. I am not able to concentrate in any work I am doing and hence not able to finish it on time. And thereby don’t get time to prepare the lessons the way I want. Please guide me.

It often happens that as we grow in consciousness things that interested us in the past do not seem so interesting anymore. Besides one gets caught in the routine of life and the varied challenges it brings that were not there when one was studying and the field of work chosen. Over a period of time the work itself becomes routine and mechanical and is unable to engage us anymore.

It also happens that we experience a need for transition and change during middle age. It is like a new window of opportunity that opens for us.

The way to go forward is to reinvent and reorient yourself. Try to find out things that interested you but which you could not pursue. Take them up again. Spend some time in self discovery. Read more, travel if possible,  explore the deeper spiritual dimension of life.

As to the work, try to find new ways taking advantage of the discoveries that have taken place, apply creative ways of teaching. Essentially it is the need for progress and change that you seem to be experiencing. Heed to it. Move towards the future with courage and faith.

Affectionately,

Alok da.

All I see in these questions, asked by everyone, including both the right wing and the left wing, is that they are driven by ego, self-righteousness, and opinions. I don’t know where this sense of certainty comes from. I want to ask you the same thing, sir. I see all of you in the same boat: holding strong opinions and connecting every random issue to Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. I never imagined I would see conversations like this within this community. 🗣️💬🍞😣💔[…]

I can see that despite the overgeneralised remarks there is in you the urge to do good. Hence I am bypassing all your judgments that are bit too hasty and too generalised, and enclosing instead a writing from the Mother in the hope that you will possibly see some new hope in them.

In the last chapter of Mind of Cells and Agenda, it is written how the Mother had given instructions that her body would be transformed and to wait and not disturb it when it may physically seem she has left it. Then why did people not follow her instructions? Nolini da, Amrit da and others must be intuitively linked with the Mother, so why did they not intervene? 📕🙄🙏🏻🌼🍂

I have actually given a couple of talks on this question that people raise based on Satprem’s personal comments in the Agenda which are often taken as gospel truth. No doubt Satprem has done an admirable job in printing the Agenda but we should not forget that The Mother herself did not want the entire Agenda to be published! In fact She mentions at a few places that we better not publish it. But Satprem went ahead and published it! That gives us a little hint about his rebel personality that saw everything from purely personal point of view and …
