AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Lately whenever I read from the works of Mother and Sri Aurobindo, I understand that the writings reveals the truth to me. But if somehow, I speak with people who have a different set of ideals and values on the subject, sometimes contradictory, I feel that they might still be seeing only a part of the truth. Because of what I feel, I sometimes say to them to understand Mother and Sri Aurobindo or atleast, wish it within myself. I do not believe that the whole truth has revealed itself to me yet, and I also read the sentences, “When a thing is true, you can be sure that it’s opposite is also true””It (the truth) will manifest itself for those who are sincere and attentive” So, is my feeling and wish (as I mentioned above) coming from my ego? Or is it an egoistic desire? What should I then feel, except to keep walking with the Mother and Sri Aurobindo towards the union🙂?

Yes even the greatest and vastest Truth is limited by the human mind into a one-sided formula.  Hence the opposite is also true. What is needed is to be attentive in an inner quietude without preconceived notions or ideas so that the Truth may manifest itself according to the need of the moment. 

So for each one the Truth manifests according to the stage and development of the individual as well as his true inner need. But human narrowness tries to make a fixed formula and believes it to be universally true and wants it to apply to all. So the important thing is to see what is one’s calling but leaves others free to follow their own.

Alok da, what is the real significance of Marriage in one’s life? I feel the social and societal cause is too much of an extra emphasis. What’s the truth? 👰🏼💍🧑🏼‍💼🪷

Marriage is meant to represent the occult truth of Purusha and Prakriti. It is the coming together of the masculine or passive and ideative with the dynamic and practical aspects of human nature. The soul is beyond gender but our individual nature works along these two lines, masculine and feminine. The soul itself is above gender. But in…
