AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Mother says, “there’s only one Will that governs the world and that is the Lord’s alone.” Does it mean then that the subconscient and the inconscient exists also by the Divine’s will? 🙄All the evil in the world “as we see it and experience” is also Divine’s Will?

Yes. It is how the Inconscient came into existence, by the plunge of the Superconscient into its very opposite. It was done because thus alone the deepest and highest divine possibilities could emerge in creation through all the seemingly impossible challenges imposed by evil and suffering which is itself the result of this plunge

Of course when we say that all the evil we see is the result of the Divine Will we often blot out all the steps and the purpose and hence it seems quite grotesque.

To put it in perspective, parents conceive a child who will surpass them and express all that they could not. The child’s coming is a cause of celebration. But to fulfill his purpose and realise his highest possibility he must go to school, take the challenge of life and wrestle with all the forces that lure and strike with fear.

So all this is part of a larger single plan and neither could be spared as part of the process.

Affectionetly,

Alok Da

Men, on the other hand have …

I have been a devotee of Hanumanji from my childhood. Traditionally we believe that Hanumanji still stays in the earth. I am curious that in the present Avatar of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo, what is the role he is playing? Also, have you had any experiences with him? Thank you!⛰️🧡🏹🙏

Hanuman ji is a wonderful god who grants bhakti and shakti to those engaged in the sewa of The Lord. That has been my experience with him. 

In the Mahabharata itself there is a story of Hanuman ji teaching a lesson of humility to Bhimsen ji. He also protects the chariot of Arjuna against occult forces. In Kaliyuga he has manifested through some mystics, the most famous instance being of Neemkaroli baba. In the new cycle that has begun now, the old guardians and the…

But there also might be some instances where I have to see or face something that is inappropriate or sensitive. How do I find the courage? 🔥😶‍🌫️🌼🌌

The most powerful method is to see the Divine in and behind everything. The first step towards that is to cultivate equanimity and wideness. It is to see the larger picture, like the background sky behind everything. While one has to respond to the outer event in a manner that is appropriate to the situation, one should always …
