AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I have been reading Savitri and other major Arya writings of Sri Aurobindo for last couple of years and I have observed that when I read it for the first time I didn’t understand anything but I held on to it, because of the Mother’s advice to read it even if you don’t understand. 😊📖[…]

I have observed that there is a drastic change in my level of understanding as compared to the time when I started. Even today, when I find a passage difficult to understand and when I return to it after a month, I can understand it easily. So, can you please explain the effect of His words on the human mind, its mechanism? I am asking this question because there is no effort from my side to raise my intellect; I just love Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, their teaching and mission.

That is a very correct observation which quite a few people make. The Mother has mentioned the process passingly that ‘the words create new brain cells if necessary for the understanding.’ It is due to the power contained in their words. These words literally force open the mind. Besides, love is a magic key, sufficient in itself to open the doors of knowledge and a higher understanding that arises as our mind opens to a greater Light and ascends to a higher consciousness. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Alok da, Beggining with your training in psychology to walking in the path of The Mother today, what is your estimate of psycho spiritual condition of humans at large, I don’t even mean spiritual or yogic but atleast of what you’d consider a healthy mind and spirit. How much percentage of humanity do actually fit the bar of being healthy souls? I was curious to ask this question cos I was reading a bit of these psychiatric studies and the characteristics which describe those who are supposedly to be found only in psychiatric wards doesn’t seem to be too far away from your everyday “normal” human beings whom we meet all around and i felt this to be a bit scary. If not a supramental life, what you’d consider atleast of the essentials required of living a healthy life mentally and emotionally?

Let us leave the supramental, spiritual and psychic apart for a moment. Nor can we arrive at the real problem if we just think in terms of numbers and case studies.

1. Has there been an increase of psychiatric as well as other illnesses?

Most probably yes. The reason is manifold. Science with its expansion of medication has lowered the natural resistance as far as physical conditions go. Labelling is another problem as far as psychiatric illnesses go. Labelling isolates a person and then instead of treating him as an organic whole we treat symptoms. There is also…

I feel now that I was never unhappy. Just disillusioned with the world around me after a certain point in life. Needed to find the truth. About people. Reality of time. Other things. Work. Things told/said to me vs my own experience. 🌱🌟 […]

The purpose is inbuilt within us as the tree is held back within the seed. So too the soul within is the seed within and its purpose is to realise, express and thereby fulfil the Divine Possibility or the Divine Purpose within it. It happens through a process of unfolding across lives. As we draw closer to the soul the more we feel conscious of …
