AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Recite Slokas when one has accepted Mother as everything.

The Mother and Sri Aurobindo have opened a very wide spiritual path on which each one advances based on one’s own temperament. If you feel a natural urge to do Hanuman Chalisa, recite shlokas or pray to the gods, you can surely do so. All that is needed is to know that these prayers and recitations have little to do with the supramental yoga and the process of transformation. But surely if you feel helped and supported within in some way through these prayers then it is fine until it drops off naturally.
