AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My question is, I canโ€™t sit down in front of The Motherโ€™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? ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐ŸŒท๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ

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,ย  before and after eating,ย  before and after any activity.ย  It is a quiet remembrance within by taking Her Name and offering the activity to Her.ย 

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

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.ย 

Rest is a matter of Time and practice. 

Affectionately,

Alok da.

I won’t go as far as calling her a Mir Jafar though there are plenty of them in India. But it is truly a pity that ambition and need for limelight has taken the better of her. Ambition is always a dangerous bedfellow to the true spiritual life. Unfortunately, people driven by ambition get blind especially when the ambition justifies itself in the garb of changing the world. Taking a leaf from Sri Aurobindo’s early life they believe a political revolution will ..

The CJP protests have rocked the capital of Delhi and violence has not subsided even on the fourth day. One is forced to the conclusion that the government has already been psychologically defeated because it is refraining from using even the right force/violence and hence has failed to contain the rowdy crowds, who have now been exposed as mobsters and gundas and not students at all. ๐Ÿชง๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿฆ‹๐Ÿ‚[…]

I quite understand this. But there is behind all this a realpolitik going on. There is a time to wait and prepare, and a time to strike. The government is buying time while it is discovering the Achilles heel of all involved. Surely the government has its own Achilles heel which strangely is being saved by the protesters, perhaps unwittingly. ..
