AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I don’t feel like do anything. It seems that aspiration and will are being exhausted. Earlier, there was so much devotion, there was aspiration and there was a desire for progress, but now only destruction is visible on all sides. Why are there so many difficulties😥? Mind, vital, physical all are creates obstacles. Neither to study nor to make efforts, no one can do it. Without any reason the mind doubts. As this is his habit. The automatic sees any thing and suddenly judge it. I am not experiencing anything and it feels like I am not progressing. One thing has happened during this, I have realized that the evil that is in everyone’s heart is also in my heart. Why does this happen and what should I do in this situation?

These are phases that come in every seekers life because there are many parts and aspects in us. That is why taking to spiritual life too early especially during adolescence is not very desirable as the challenges are many. It is only when we have gone through the experiences of life keeping the right attitude that we become ready for the plunge. Until then one should read spiritual books, scriptures but also try to study well, meet the various challenges such as of job and relationship while practicing equanimity. Then after the ups and downs the flame of aspiration can be steady and the progress be uninterrupted. It takes long, many years of inner purification until the aspiration can stay longer. One has to have great patience and perseverance to go through the spiritual life until the end. After all it is the greatest adventure and the most challenging discovery of all times.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I’m in cancer treatment and it looks quite good. But I have to deal with a medical system here in Switzerland that on one hand is very excellent but on the other is often working with “worst case” scenarios causing fear and anxiety in me. (Sometimes I ask myself whether the hostile forces can also use doctors…) Anyway, I often feel the obligation to decide something, whether to follow the doctor’s advice or go my own way. This is very difficult. How can one know whether a decision is right?🎗️🩺❤️‍🩹💊

Human beings live in ignorance, ignorance of the deeper truths and forces that govern our lives, ignorant of the Divine Presence within, ignorant of the very goal of life. The doctors are no exception. They act out of goodwill but often an ignorant goodwill that …

I don’t know how to put it in word at some point I feel terrible about myself and at the same time not able to hold it anymore. Things have paradoxically changed.

It is the struggle that most people of the new generation feel. The simplest way to deal with these things is to stay focused on your goal and not try to change people, however significant or close they may be in your life. To try changing others or to expect them to….

Namastey Alok Da, I was reading some predictions related to Pakistan and China by Mother and Sri Aurobindo on the website, Was the Mother referring to a future event that is yet to manifest, or was this vision specific to that time period and did not occur due to divine intervention or a change in the working of forces? Is there any future possibility where China might invade India?🪷🐘🌍🏮

She was referring to a possibility, a possibility that was strong at that moment as well remains a risk for the future. Sri Aurobindo also said that they are very restless and saw the threat of Red China invading India through Tibet. As long as the Communist party …
