AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I feel like my life has been full of hardships and struggles. Nothing ever comes to me easily, while others seem to get the same things effortlessly. And even when I finally do receive what I wanted, I don’t truly enjoy it because when I needed it the most, it wasn’t there. In the end, I do get everything, but it often feels too late to matter 😥 [conti]

Even now, I’m still struggling in my job, lacking even the most basic support or facilities. Over time, I’ve become increasingly irritable, I get upset when things don’t go my way, and I often take out that frustration on my husband and children. I feel constantly restless, and no matter how much others try to guide or support me, I just can’t seem to absorb it or put it into action.

Some lives are marked out for struggle, others for fruition. That is the whole idea of rebirth, a constant progress wherein the inner wealth we accumulate in one life is carried forward to another. Remember this truth and act knowing that God’s All-seeing eye is keeping an account of all your efforts and struggles. Dedicate your works to Him, trust His ways and let Him decide what to give and when. 

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,..
