AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Is the transition from the last Kaliyuga to Satyuga explained, or are some signs that appeared given in our Vedic Literature? The current Kaliyuga is coming to an end and a new Satyuga is starting. My question is in this context. 📖🌍🤔

The transition from Kaliyuga to Satyuga is given in the Puranas, especially the Matsya, Vishnu and Bhagawat Puranas, as well as the much later Bhavishya Purana. In the Vedas, it is barely hinted at, mainly in the Brahmanas. 

The signs of transition from the Kaliyuga to Satyuga are mainly a complete breakdown of the old world order, with the emergence of new and weird ways of life. There is a state of anarchy with a complete loss of all social and traditional values. At that time there is prophesied that the last Avatar of Vishnu, Kalki Avatar, will come and destroy the forces of evil and establish the New Satyuga. 

You will find all this in my talk on Kalki Avatar and on the cycles of Time on Auroma.

Sri Aurobindo and The Mother have also given us the signs and indications of the setting in of the new age, of the new Satyuga. 

Essentially, it is a state of growing anarchy, preparing through it the emergence of a new order. All this is so evident today that it is unmistakable. 

For example, what we call as Wokism today is largely a breakdown of all the existing social and gender structures. There is also, alongside these, a rise of women and youth, an instability of the markets, a breakdown of systems, a coming together of masses of mankind cutting across barriers of nations, gender, religions, a big and unprecedented generational gap whereby the new age children think and feel globally and without the burden of past conditioning. Marriages and all other mind made systems that creates stability and social order are gone or going away. There is the emergence of new experiments and new ideas in the domain of education, psychology, science, relationships,  finances, art, music and sports. There are new bench marks and records being set every few years, too many new discoveries shrinking the world into a global village. The resurgence of Yoga, meditation and an increasing interest in Sanatana Dharma, with a worldwide growing attention on India, are all so many signs. I think there is a talk on this as well. And of course, The Mother and Sri Aurobindo have spoken extensively about it in Savitri, The Life Divine, The Human Cycle and numerous letters, all of which you should be able to find in the talks and writings. And this is just the beginning. There is so much more to come. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I need to ask you something regarding teaching. There are some students in my class who don’t listen, who are sort of rebels. So whenever you tell them something, either they won’t listen, or they will start arguing. How to tackle these types of students? 📚🌱[…]

There are three main reasons for this phenomenon in adolescents.

1. Partly it is the nature of the Age we live in, an Age of exceptional freedom and equality. Hence the old norms and patterns are gone and none of the old methods such as fear, punishment etc work. 

2. There is lack of self discipline in the students as well as the teachers. The more a teacher exercises self-mastery the more he or she automatically exercises control over the students. 

3. The subject itself may not be interesting or else presented in an interesting way that connects with the students. One should be creative and try to find better ways of engaging them with interesting examples.
