AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Is “go with the flow”๐ŸŒŠ a good or bad trait of this generation?

For the moment this idea of going with the flow is needed to break the old patterns before the new can emerge. The risk however is there because when the old structure breaks, many will gravitate into the lower flow of animal nature which the mind has regulated with great difficulty. But it opens the possibility of few to rise beyond the mind and its old structures, systems and organisation into the higher divine flow. That is where these children need guidance, to distinguish between the lower flow where one lives driven by the moment’s impulse and the higher flow where one is guided by a luminous intuition.ย 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

That is why Sri Aurobindo and The Mother speak of a higher and lower Perfection. The higher Perfection refers to the soul’s Perfection, the spiritual growth from a state of Ignorance to a state of Truth and Vastness. The lower Perfection is the Perfection of the instrumental nature, of the mind, heart, life and body, to develop them through …

Dear Sir, why is that the ego anti-divine? Why does it is not naturally surrenders to the divine? Why is there division and a distance from the divine? Why does it have to die ultimately for the complete spiritualization? ๐Ÿชž๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Ego is neither Divine nor anti-Divine. It is a part of human nature whose purpose is to create the sense of individuality. Individuality is a necessary element in human evolution. Its purpose is to create the sense of freewill, within certain limits of course. Freewill in this context simply means that the individual must chose from a number of forces impacting upon the person. The choices may be aligned to our deeper truth, swabhava and swadharma, …
