AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

I want to do everyday but I can’t..and also exams are coming and I have to read lots of things and I don’t know why I feel like I can’t remember. I mean whenever I read some topics and sometime after I forgot. I mean whenever I read some topics and sometime after I forgotย ย ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ›๏ธ๐Ÿฅถ

To increase the memory one has to increase the power of concentration. And our concentration is at its best when the mind is quiet and peaceful. Cultivate this inner calm and peace and for this a simple way is to keep your focus on what you are doing, the work at hand and do not let the mind run into the future and the past especially worrying about the results of your efforts. The results are never in one’s hands so thinking of them is quite a waste of time. What is in our hands is effort. Stay peaceful when you study and enjoy the books rather than see them as a means to do well in exams. This is what I would suggest you for now.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Until now this spiritual evolution was confined to a few prominent personalities who tried to communicate it to the followers who almost invariably reduced it to a Religion with mental rules and regulations. Nevertheless mankind …

A strange dream just before I woke up this morning: I saw that I was consoling my father, hugging him about a situation where he was soon going to die, and at that time I felt a sensation of a very big snake passing by as if its body touched me; I also heard its hissing sound and saw its big tail end. ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’ญ[…]

This seems to be a premonitory dream and the snake seems to be ‘Kaalsarp’ (Time-snake) that chases us. We can either heed to its warning and evolve swiftly or else get paralysed with fear. So it seems that your father (and you too by default) has entered this phase of either an evolutionary leap or else a succumbing down to the evolutionary pressure and the challenges…
