AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I feel suffocated😖 in crowded places, especially when there’s loud music and constant chatter. I find it hard to speak up in those situations, and organizing or participating in events isn’t really my strength. People often assume I’m dumb because I stay quiet. Is this a bad quality? I prefer spending my time reading books of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo, listening to your talks, and talking to people who are connected to Maa. I’m unsure how to handle this because I work in an IT company, and this environment feels out of sync with who I am.

You are like the swan in the company of kingfishers. Don’t try to be like them. Instead walk with your head held high towards high and noble things, keep your feet steady on the ground by doing your work with dedication and practice equanimity in the face of outer disturbances. When surrounded and overwhelmed with contrary forces, then just go on taking the Mother’s Name quietly in your heart and all will be well.

Not sure what you mean by lower energies of people getting absorbed. The human system is not an entirely closed container. The body and mind of each person is constantly engaged in an energy interchange all the time. And since most human beings live in the vital, the transaction also takes place mostly at the vital level. Most …
