AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My son asked me why God is so cruel? because he made so much suffering. I don’t know what to tell him.

God is not cruel but we misread His intentions and actions just as a child misreads his parents firmness or teachers strictness which is sometimes necessary to keep us on the right track of growth and progress.

Yet He allows us enough freedom of choices and when we misuse it then suffering comes.

At the same time when we go through suffering even due to our wrong actions, it is He who helps us to go through it and, if we have sufficient faith, even supports us and reduces the suffering.

Affectionately,

Alok da.

There are several inner rhythms and only one of them belongs to the psychic. Yes, the psychic being is very much living and conscious. It is living, conscious, full of love and delight, always turned towards the Divine.
