I had a dream, Dada: I was driving a car and a bike was moving ahead of me on its own. Then I got down from the car and reached a market. The bike was moving ahead on its own.

I’ve always been wondering that our current suffering has got anything to do with our past life sin. I just want to know about this because I’ve been suffering from mental illness. I’ve always wanted to commit suicide. I don’t like this life at all. One day I’ve had almost tried to kill myself but something was stopped me. I was also sexually assaulted by men. Is it also related to my past life sin๐ญ๐๐ค๐ฅ?

Dada, there is a professor at IISC who is a sadhaka in the sampradaya of Madhvacharya, and he says that, according to him, the way to find your Swadharma is to do what you can persistently despite failure. I want to ask, is this a good way of practically knowing, or is it too reductionist? And according to you, what can be the best practical way for a young child?๐ง๐โจ๐ฑ

Yesterday suddenly realised during my prayer with my mother that the seat of the Psychic Being is Highar Vital, in the Hridaya Chakra. Initially, I feel Peace, Bliss and Delight up to the Vishudhi Centre. Suddenly realised that my heart has received The Mother’s Peace and is spreading to all the centre of my all the inner parts and similar to the mother light also. Suddenly feel that the heart centre is doing everything. Alok da, is our Sadhana going in the right direction? Please guide me. ๐ชทโจ๐๐ฏ๏ธ
Yes absolutely, the psychic being is behind the heart centre and when open and in the front then all becomes easy and natural.

Probably 4-5 years ago, I had read a book named ‘Immortal Talks’ by an author named Shunya. Last time I checked, the author hadn’t revealed their identity. So the book is about Hanuman and how He imparts the ultimate knowledge to this particular tribe of people every 40 years and the story revolves around it. You can call its genre fiction. As I read that, I felt such a deep connection with Hanuman. ๐๐น๐๐๐ป[…]

We have an independent food scientist in India called the Millet Man, Dr Khader Vali. My question to you is all food science just relative in nature? Does body finally adapt to whatever food is given to it, as long as it is healthy and eaten in moderation, and produce health? Does mindset top food science?๐ฒ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ

Why does this happen that people are more attracted towards outer beauty? Even in girls/females at my office, I see them investing a lot of time and money in smart dresses, make up, hair styles, footwear etc. And I see people getting preference on the basis of their make up sense, dressing sense, capability of being able to afford luxury and glamour.
