AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I had a dream which is bugging me😣. 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

Dear Alok Ji, can you please tell me how I can get rid of my anger at Sri Aurobindo and also how to regain trust in him? 🙏🏻💗

Trust is a very precious, priceless gift. Even among human beings it is special. But when it is towards the Divine then it should be doubly carefully guarded.  

Again anger is an extremely harmful emotion towards anyone. It hurts and harms both, the one who harbours it and the one towards whom it is directed. But since one cannot harm or hurt the Divine Beings, it falls back upon oneself creating a terrible karma. By all means desist it. It is the straight road to fall…

At one end, aspiration for the Divine and to unite with Him and to have a change of consciousness; to do The Mother’s work; at the other end, need for a proper awareness in the very ordinary and externalised human nature about the deep meaning and implication of what is happening in life and also what the Divine Destiny is. 🌱🙏🏻[…]

It is much better to catch the knot of life at the other end from where it all begins. The riddle of life cannot be understood on the surface. Focus on the one thing needful, the Divine, and all the rest will begin to fall in its place. This has been the experience of all who have gone on the path.

I am reading the Synthesis of Yoga and Sri Aurobindo is speaking about the union having a threefold character (pg. 131). I wanted to understand whether this is a skilful parallel to draw: a union by identity = Atman = Brahman 📖🌟🙏🏻 […]

Here is the passage from the Synthesis of Yoga to which you are referring.

‘That which is thus made manifest to our vision and experience, and the union has a threefold character. There is a union in spiritual essence, by identity; there is a union by the indwelling of our soul in this highest Being and Consciousness; there is a
