AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My question is, I can’t sit down in front of The Mother’s photo and do a prayer. But in the morning, only one time I pray for Her to stay with me at each moment. How can I increase my concentration on the Mother? 🙄🙏🏻🌷🖼️❤️‍🔥

Concentration upon the Mother’s photographs and praying to Her is one powerful way to connect. But a prayerful attitude can be kept the whole day by praying on waking up and before sleep,  before and after eating,  before and after any activity.  It is a quiet remembrance within by taking Her Name and offering the activity to Her. 

It helps to keep some small books of the Mother, such as White Roses and reading a passage whenever time permits. 

One can also keep Her music, especially Savitri music, playing in the background and keep a couple of quotes here and there strategically to bring back the remembrance. 

Rest is a matter of Time and practice. 

Affectionately,

Alok da.

You should follow the inner voice / command if you have received it. It is not about ambition but the experience one needs through a line of action. In fact it is better if people with little or no ambition go into and occupy …
