AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My mother lives in denial and delusion about herself and her equation with everyone around, now that is a problem more for the people around her and if I tell her anything like how she behaved in the past, she will plainly deny and fight with me, How to deal with this kind of a person?

Thank you for your guidance. Through recent reflection, I realized my struggles stemmed from a lack of true sincerity—reacting from superficial judgments, unnecessary fear, and wavering faith rather than seeing things with humility and patience. 🌱🔥🌸🙏[…]

To recognize the insincerities is itself a great step forward towards sincerity. Most people, even in the Yoga or so they believe, are unable to see their own hidden insincerities. It is indeed a Grace and the sign of the true spiritual life growing in you.
