AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

ย I visited to Shree Smruti last year there an gujarati apa who guided me about the museum of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo; asked me what are you doing? Then I said not yet settled apa I am under process; preparing for Govt job. Then she suggested me that why do you not try for any company job?how to eliminate this cloudy doubt from my mind I don’t know sir โ€ฆmay u help me in this regard?๐Ÿ’ผ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿข๐Ÿ“‹
