AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My daughter demands that we buy branded expensive clothes for her just like her friends wear. We cannot afford it but then I worry she will look the odd one out and girls will not include her in their group.

Explain to her through stories and examples that the value of a human being does not depend on how she looks or the clothes one wears but on the qualities one has and the contribution one can make to the world.

That friends whose friendship depends upon the dress are not worth her friendship.

And that what matters most how much she can progress and learn in the school is what will help in the future and bring in the right kind of friends.

Affectionately,

Alok da.

It is not your intuition or dream or aspiration for a beautiful, happy life with love as its core and minister that is wrong. It is just that humanity is not yet ready for such a life and so will it be as long as ego and desires rule our nature. The dream is correct but the means to realise it are missing. As a matter of fact Intuition always sees far off as the eyes see the sky. But the feet can only walk barely two steps at a time on the ground. It is this gap …

Just had a phone call with an astrologer + tantra expert from Tarapith, West Bengal, regarding my situation. He told me that he made offerings to Mahakal related to my problems and said ki aapke upar kala jaadu hua hai by some muslim tantrik. 🙏🏻🕊️[…]

What else you expect if instead of having faith in the Divine Mother herself before whom no magic can stay, you are having faith in black magic and astrologers! Instead of lamenting and running here and there if only you could have faith in the Divine and aspire for the Divine Peace and Grace then all this will be behind you. It is your …
