AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

I often visit Pondicherry, but my aspiration feels weak when I’m there. At the Samadhi, I feel blank and don’t feel like sharing my problems to the Mother—it just doesn’t come naturally. I struggle to share everything. I feel like I go there to relax, even though I can easily connect with the Mother because the whole atmosphere is filled with her presence. But when I’m away from Pondicherry, I listen to your talks, read books, and my aspiration feels stronger. I write to the Mother my problems, good and bad days. It’s confusing why I don’t feel more aspiration when I’m in Pondicherry 🙄? Why does this happen?

But this is natural. Aspiration is a thirst for the Divine. But when you are at the ocean of Divine Love you don’t feel thirsty anymore but simply drink the nectar, grow strong and get back to work in the world. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

My niece who is 12 yrs old doesn’t like sharing😥. If she takes her favorite food to school and her friends ask her to share, she doesn’t give or gives a very small piece. If by chance she happens to share a chocolate with girls she doesn’t like, she wants to snatch it away. She is attached to Krishna, and only thing that pacifies her is when we tell her that Krishna likes if she shares what He has given her. She says “I know it’s bad, i know it’s a devil that says this, but I can’t overpower it. It tells me that those girls did bad and said bad things about you, instead of that you shared your things, now you go steal something from them. Or I keep thinking what will I get if I give them”..[conti]
