AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

It has thus happened that whenever I have prayed for proximal presence of someone or something, I have suffered and regretted…as things have taken ugly turns later on..even it’s said, ” Marriage was erected on the tomb of Love😧” so it’s wise to not get married to the one you love..thus this way it’s not wise to marry at all…also I can easily find many unsuccessful marriages around. So now even if I seek the proximity of my beloved (seek to express my love for him through feelings, words and services) in life but I feel afraid to pray for their proximal presence in my life in anticipation of the bond between us getting ruined if that happens.

Marriages do not work out as we expect them to do because of the gap between the ideal and the strength and sacrifice needed to realise it. This is very much missing today in the fast food and utilitarian culture imported largely from the West. But the Divine is always willing to help us realise the Ideal. He is not the spoilsport to our happiness but the helper and guide and it is only rarely that he does not grant a sincere prayer, and only when He sees the harm that may accrue through it. The reason why relationships end up badly is not God but our incapacity to love. A love full of demands, expectations,  wishes and desires based on the need for pleasure or happiness is not so much love but emotional and vital hunger. So too a love calculating gain and loss is a business and a marriage based on social benefits is a transaction. These are as good as failures even if it succeeds by outer standards. So grow in love and try to make it beautiful and sincere. That is all that is needed.

I dreamt of some crows on a tree, some in the open sky. 1st I liked their black color (black beauty). Then I tried to touch them but didn’t. They flew from my very close to me. But after some time, something happened: an element like subtle like crystal/ transparent little rope but thick, as if falling upon my neck. 🐦🌙[..]

The crow generally symbolise practical cleverness though sometimes they are believed to be communicating mediums between the ancestors and the living. May be they came to bless you and give the gift of cleverness.

I just have one last question related to psychosis. Is it worth trying to analyze the meaning of the experiences that I had during psychosis (whatever I remember)? Or should I just forget them like a bad dream? For years I have been trying to find answers; maybe there are none. 🕊️🙏🏼

There is always a meaning or rather a reflection of certain inner states. But it is difficult to find it out either by oneself or by the average psychiatrist. If one can find the meaning it is good. But the medicines should not be discontinued….
