AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Mothers says cultivating disinterestedness is the first step towards living a true life. What are some of the practical ways to become disinterested, or act disinterestedly in life🤔? Especially when one sees so many defects in oneself.

It means to do things without reference to oneself, selflessly as an offering to Her regardless of the fruits or any other personal gain. In practice it means to take pleasure in all one does but not to do anything for the sake of pleasure. The choice of activity should not be based on personal preferences or rigid mental standard but on what helps feel closer to the Divine or expresses the Divine best through oneself.  Finally not to be attached to any particular activity or mode of living but to be ready to give up even those activities that one considers as the divine work without remorse if such be the inner need, the command or the calling. based on personal preferences or rigid mental standard but on what helps feel closer to the Divine or expresses the Divine best through oneself.  Finally not to be attached to any particular activity or mode of living but to be ready to give up even those activities that one considers as the divine work without remorse if such be the inner need, the command or the calling.
