AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

I have been listening to you and reading collected works of mother which I have not finished yet and I aspire to walk on Sri Aurobindo’s Integral yoga path. My question is: despite everything i constantly feel the urge of becoming a mother which wasn’t there till I was 29..I keep aspiring but this urge constantly hit me. Can you put some light on it. How shall I overcome it😳?

Another way is to take up some children and be involved in their education and upbringing. It may trouble for 2 to 3 years more and then quietly fades away.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
