AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I have been scolded and banned from using headphones in wards , which I used to listen to your videos or Mother’s music in free time. I keep feeling that I should just leave this pg seat and join Sri Aurobindo Ashram I know life won’t be easy n chill anywhere if I am not peaceful within but at least in Ashram I would be able to remember Maa all the time and wouldn’t have so many restrictions. Any advice on this how to deal with such situation??🤯🌀🌫️

She is everything to me and I can’t feel her presence anymore. It’s not that I don’t feel joy in doing this residency i do I have amazing co-jrs , but I feel like all this is taking me away from Her.

Do not leave the work you are doing. It is She who has given this work to you to prepare you for the future. Instead of using headphones that attract such scoldings, just remember Her in your heart and use hands free blue tooth if you wish to listen. Do it when people are not around and work is of a routine nature. This is just a passing phase. Go through it with faith and equanimity and complete trust in Her Grace while keeping the aspiration silently growing within. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

If we go through the writings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother we shall see that they had a great regard for classical music. The Mother especially appreciated Beethoven and to an extent Mozart. She appreciated the music…
