AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Once you mentioned that any psychological problem has an effect on the body, for example if you have stomach problems it is mainly because of anxiety, fear or jealousy. Can you please let us know all the body ailments that are connected to the various body parts 🧐

It is a detailed science of correspondences between the mind and body. There is book written on the subject by Louis Haye. But broadly speaking the location of the organ and the corresponding psychological centre gives a quick reference point.

For instance headache would correspond to some burden while neck and shoulder responsibilities. Lungs signify the way we receive and expend our vital energy. The heart is sensitive to emotions as well as push for achievement and ambition. Stomach is about digesting unwanted feelings while liver responds to bitterness. Kidneys is about holding back certain lower vital movements while the naval region has to do with fear, anger, excitement. Pelvis, uterus, bladder is connected to movements related to reproduction including sexuality. The spine in general is about the ability to take the challenges of life while lower back is about the feelings of loss of support as well as blocked sexuality and anger. Limbs express the capacity to reach out and grasp and walk. Hair and nail and teeth represent the Inconscient. Eyes and ears about what we are receiving from the world.

But these are not absolute rules and in these subtle matters the total picture is as important as the symptom. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

A few months ago, I felt my practice of Integral Yoga had become overly mental and habitual—gathering concepts rather than living the sadhana—so I stepped away and followed a structured traditional discipline involving mantra-japa. 📖🕯️🙏🏼[…]

The sadhana once begun never really stops. Yes one encounters temporary halts, – almost everyone goes through these phases, but that is because we need to assimilate the gains of the sadhana. Often our outer nature may not even recognise. Yet one has received something but more is not coming in either because the container is small …

Dear Alok da, thank you—the lines from Sri Aurobindo in your email helped immensely, and while old holds haven’t entirely left, they feel looser. I find myself happier in solitude, as outer interactions easily muddle my poise, while an intense inner longing to remain anchored to the Mother, Sri Aurobindo, and Sri Krishna continues to grow. 👩‍👧🕊️🙏🏼[…]
