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🙂?

It is for this reason that the ego has been given to man, to ensure that the self-development of the individual is not stifled or thwarted by the pressure of the masses. There is a basic self-respect, a dignity of life, that each …

Alok da, it’s been like two-three years since I got an introduction to Savitri, and discourses upon it by M P Pandit, yours and others. I intuitively knew – this is a text that I should be carrying like an inner recitation throughout my life from now on, but still I came to postponing and delaying totally getting into it all this time. 😊🙏🏻🌻📖[…]

Reading Savitri everyday is itself a Yoga. If you can do this with quietude and inner concentration, a page a day or more, contemplate upon it or simply let the lines and words reverberate within its sound and words seeping into …
