Ask Alok da

We know of so many people who are facing impossible situations and problems and they are helpless. They do not know what to do or whom to ask. 

This is a dedicated site for those who are searching for answers, who want to break from their present repeating circles of life and looking for answers that will understand them, help them find a new way-a new solution towards life beautiful and Divine.

I recently completed this beautiful book – Champaklal Speaks. I have a few questions that came to my mind. 1- The book felt like aspiration and utmost bhakti in bold letters. How is one so consistent with an aspiration. If an aspiration is not consistent, does that mean it wasn’t an aspiration in the first place?🧘‍♂️➔🪷🙏🏼✨☀️

Disciples like Champaklal have lives behind them. Such a special Grace doesn’t come without that.

It takes time for aspiration to become steady and consistent.

I made a mistake in my life, and by the time I realised that I shouldnt have done that though i knew that somewhere i am not being loyal to the person i am with and i was fully drawn into my desires …at one fine day everything got burnt . I couldn’t save anything, so I moved forward slowly, resting in Mother’s lap and offering everything I had done to everyone and myself. After two years, I made another mistake… and today I am feeling deep fear. While offering things to Mother, I keep thinking how could I make the same kind of mistake again? 🚶‍♂️➔🕳️➔😮‍💨

The Divine does not see things as humans do. What we call as mistakes and errors are part of His plan to help us grow

In a video “Param Maa Ke Sandesh” you tell from Sri Aurobindo’s letters that when there is no difference between Sri Maa and Sri Aurobindo, then in true sense supramental yoga begins. Then you tell about Sri Aurobindo and say that going towards Maa will lead to complete yoga, if you stay towards me then the benefit will be less. So Dada, my question is that when Sri Maa is Sri Aurobindo’s power then why did Sri Aurobindo say this?🔽🔼🪷🌍✨

Sri Aurobindo and the Mother are in their essential consciousness. But for the purposes of manifestation they appear as two, even as Ishwara and Shakti.

I have been bothered with this situation several times, when there are certain people who you are associated to as ‘family’ and cannot really cut ties with them although they are someone who I do not get along with, or can reason with. It rather feels stifling to be around them because of the disruption in the environment they cause with their behaviour, presence, and discussions.⛈️ 🧱 ⚡💔 👥 🫥

It never helps to follow and try to fulfil social expectations of people. It is a kind of hypocrisy which is not good for our

 I am completely unemployed and when I am trying to study sincerely, I can’t do it. And I am depressed looking back on those 4 years which I have wested mindlessly doing nothing. Also, as I made no progress and wasted my time and energy in everything except study, now I became mentally and physically very weak. As I was always inclined to the Mother and Sri Aurobindo and quite involved in our branch’s activity, I don’t know how it has happened with me. Though I know that I am the only one responsible for this situation.💼❌🌧️🪫😮‍💨

The solution is actually very simple. Analysing why it happened, lamenting about the wasted time, looking back surely won’t help. If anything it will only

One day I felt that I do not know anything about this world, so I try to know it logically and try to experience the witness feeling, then some days I get yoga and some days I am separated from it, sometimes I get so immersed in meditation that the balance of my body is disturbed and my attention is diverted from my body and I get afraid. I am not able to keep my body and mind completely still, so what is the solution, please tell me.🧘‍♂️🏔️✨⚓👁️

First and foremost be clear in your thought and aspiration about what you want. You want to know about the real nature of the world

I am listener of your Youtube podcasts, which have been my entry point into Sri Aurobindo and the Mother’s teachings. During my regular weekend drive from Bangalore to my in-laws’ home, I usually connect my phone through bluetooth and play your latest Video and leave the phone in the dashboard. I am completely alone during the drives and  allow myself to immerse in your talks till I reach the destination, which is usually within 1.5hrs and I do the same while returning back home as well.👑 ♾️ ✨

It is a well known response that sometimes occurs to the ego-self when it suddenly comes in contact with the Divine Reality. It panics with

Respected Sir, Reference is CWSA Volume 28 Page 499, subject “Krishna as an Avatar” Answer No.3. Question – If Krishna was an overmind “God”, that means he was not an incarnation, not the Divine, but somebody else who claimed to be the Divine – i.e., he was a god who somehow thought he was God. Not understood, what Sri Aurobindo wants to say about Krishna?🪈🦚💙🛞

There is a gentle sarcasm in it. The disciple has asked a question

“Why is it said that Krishna is an Overmind God?’
