AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

In your talk I came know that the initial translated book Prayers and Meditation by Sri Aurobindo was a very special as The Mother herself distributed the Self signed copies to some disciples and today I realised the immense value so I request you to guide and write to me🙏.

So excited I am that the 1940 published book SIGNED BY THE MOTHER to SHANKAR is my possession. It happened so, that rushing thru the old book case at one old residence which was home to Late Shri Krishnanandji some kilometers from my place, which we visit every Gurupurnima, I grabbed this copy of Prayers and Meditations.

It is a beautiful Grace. To receive a book signed by Her, especially Her Prayers and Meditations, is an indication that She has accepted you completely.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I completely understand your situation. Unfortunately it is far too common and a problem quite universally. An ancient saying goes that children of the same family are rarely born under the same roof. The family is a beginning and a base but most of us turn it almost into a goal. Each soul brings its own destiny. Two persons living in the same house need not have the same degree of inner evolution. They may be not only in different …
