AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

In Rajyoga, it is taught that we should think positively even about those who behave negatively. Just as we offer blessings to someone who is physically ill, we should also extend forgiveness and compassion to those who are emotionally or spiritually unwell. Rajyoga emphasizes the power of pure thoughts, inner peace, and soul consciousness. By connecting with the Supreme through meditation, we cultivate virtues like patience, kindness, and detachment, allowing us to remain stable and loving even in the face of negativity. What are your thoughts on this and how much this is aligned to Sri Aurobindo’s Yoga?

Yes it is a very helpful practice and is quite aligned to Sri Aurobindo’s Yoga. It helps in a preliminary purification. It is a cultivation of Sattwaguna that helps soften the thick crust of Nature. Later one has to go beyond and let only those thoughts and feelings arise that flow from the Divine. It is to rise beyond the Sattwa and act under the impulsion of the Divine Will as we see in Sri Krishna’s advice to Arjuna. This aspect is missing in Rajayoga since its goal is liberation. We should go one step deeper and replace the vision of me and others with a meditation and perception of the Divine Presence in everyone and everything, however contrary it may seem in appearance. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Sri Aurobindo and The Mother often refer to the Bible, so is Christ considered an Avatar like Krishna? If so, why doesn’t He speak of Rebirth? Many sincere Christians believe Christ is the sole path to salvation attainable in just one lifetime. ✝️🦚😊🙏🏻🪷[…]

The stories recounted in the Scriptures are generally symbolic. Most interpreters take them literally and then convert it into irrefutable dogmas that are based on personal beliefs. But while beliefs may be comforting they …
