AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I had a dream which is bugging me๐Ÿ˜ฃ. I wasn’t feeling well yesterday, there was this big fuzzy heavy feeling moving all around the body giving me warm chills, making me think I’ll be unconscious. Maybe it’s because of that. But I feel very unsettled because of the beggars, can you explain the below dream:

I had a dream that I was going to Jodhpur with my sister coz I had landed a job and I’m searching for a home with dangling lights where my friend lives. But as I’m about to reach suddenly a Sikh person isn’t letting me go. My brother escapes but that man wouldn’t let me go and then I finally go past him but then a lady beggar comes in my way and she asks for money but I shout at her a lot. Then she kind of curses me like when you need me ,I won’t be here to help. If something happens to your heart , I won’t come for you and I’m the only one in this area. But then I say sorry to her coz I felt a feeling of uneasiness letting her stay angry. I said sorry coz I was scared she won’t come if I need her.

Then as I go towards my friends home, iit starts to rain and it is beautiful with a small stream and a big garden thet leads to his home. Then I join work and I don’t like it at all. And there I see an old face from my high school days , a girl and I avoid her. And I promise myself I’ll find myself a home to stay after 3 days max. And then I woke up.

The dream indicates an inner shift taking place within you in which certain parts of nature are helping (sister) as well as certain other people and forces (friend). But there are other forces from outside that are trying to obstruct this inner shift. The turbanned person is doubt and the beggar woman is various needs and desires. In this process you are looking for a stable ground to launch the next phase of your journey. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

How can we detach our true awareness [the observant guide] from the vital ego-mental behaviour?ย And why is it necessary? ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Without detachment we remain attached and moved by all kinds of forces circulating in the field of human ignorance. We mistake every suggestion, every thought, every feeling, every impulse for truth and, in the process, land up in the thick maze of falsehood.ย

I wanted to ask you about the right amount and timing of sleep. Whenever I wake up, I often find myself confused between two thoughts: either I feel that I should sleep a little longer because my sleep is not complete, or, if I do go back to sleep, I later feel that I have wasted my time because of laziness. ๐Ÿ˜ด๐ŸŒ…โฐ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป […]

The average sleep requirements vary between 6 to 9 hours with 7 hours as a good common ground.ย 

The best timings are to sleep an hour or two before midnight and wake up an hour or so before sunrise, say 10 pm to 5 am. It is best to keep a regular timing. It is also helpful not to wake up in the morning and go to sleep again unless one is sleep deprived….

I am grateful for your guidance in this situation. Alok da, I feel that remaining silent, offering the hurt to the Divine, and praying for peace within myself and others would be easier for me.ย ย But I have one doubt: what if the other person interprets my silence as weakness and continues to hurt or insult me? ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป[…]

Those who indulge in hurting others are already hurtling downwards. They will continue to do what they are habituated to doing. Leave them to their destiny. By getting into a retaliatory fight with them you would only hurt yourself by delaying your journey and gravitating downwards towards them. Take their insults as …
