I had a dream where I was standing in front of a mirror, and while seeing myself, I consciously pulled/cut some hair of mine while combing and putting it aside. 💇🏼♂️💭[…]
This is not any other vital dream. It indicates removing of certain old sanskaras or habits embedded in the subconscious and replacing or modifying them
Why is the life span of humans dwindling as the Yugas pass? I feel it’s against us. By the time we realise Divine, we are back to zero. even though we carry some learning in our souls. 🌎
True, it is said that the lifespan dwindles as the yugas transit from Satya Yuga to Kali Yuga. The reason seems to be due to
Namaste, I am a visual artist. I work in an Art college as a lecturer in sculpture, planning to visit the Mahakumbh. Is it a waste of time for the Mother’s devotee, or should one also experience it? 🧑🏼🎨🛕🔱🌅
There is nothing wrong in visiting any place if you feel the need of having an experience and the place is not harmful to your
I occasionally get intensely sleepy to the point that I can not control it during the day. I am sleeping fine at night. There is no medical cause. What is the reason, and how should I approach this from a yogic perspective? 🥱😴
It could be partly because of a general disinterest in the mundane life, a phase that many spiritual seekers go through. The things that engaged
Alok Bhaiya, when I meditate, I feel a warmth or heat on my shoulders. Is this good or something unusual? I don’t understand what I should do when this happens. Additionally, there seems to be some external influence, like a slight effect of a ghost. How can I come out of this and improve myself? Please suggest some remedies. 🫳🏼🫨🔥
The feeling of warmth is good. It is the sign of an increase in energy in the being. This energy must be however directed towards
Sir, sometimes I feel that a large mass of India is unaware of the teachings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. Even a knowledge about the salient features of this Yoga is bound to attract many young people into the fold of this Path. 🎙️🌄[…]

How do we make sure that the Progress we have made in this lifetime gets imprinted on our Soul and gets carried forward to the next Birth? 🌄
That is part of the evolutionary mechanism of Nature inbuilt within our soul. But if we want to ensure it from our side then we
How can the problem of conversion to Christianity be solved? I come from Chhattisgarh, and nearly all the villages surrounding my village have turned Christians. In reaction, Hindutva people vandalize Christmas celebrations, but I don’t think that is the right thing to do and will only lead to a counter reaction. ⛪✝️🌻🛕🕉️
Religous conversions take place due to faultlines in our society, the most prominent ones being the caste idea and the rigid barriers of hierarchy. It
Dada, whenever I feel a downpour of presence from the top of my head, my lustful tendencies grow, and subsequently, I feel a blockage in descent and a great discomfort with some pain in my head. Even after repeated rejections, these suggestions of lust come even more strongly. How to reject them permanently, as I feel that I am just suppressing them. 🫥🦋
It takes time and one has to be very patient. Rejecting lustful thoughts is not enough. One needs to stay busy and do lot of
When sharing a tight space with my sibling, I end up fighting over minuscule things, such as when responsibilities are not shared equally or when she doesn’t keep the place neat and clean. I don’t want to get mentally affected by these things, but at the same time, I don’t want to take on the whole responsibility on behalf of both people. 👥[…]
It should be shared, either by way of demarcation of responsibilities or else sharing of the common work. This will help both of you, especially
Dear Alok, There is no being in the unreal and there is no being in the real. – In this Sloka, what is meant by bhavah? I feel the meaning is this: Truth will have some representation ( sense). Where illusion (asatah) never has any representation. So anything that anyway manifested is true, untrue can never manifest. Am I right? Please clear my understanding.
This shloka from the second chapter of the Srimadbhagawatgita implies that ‘whatever is true (sat) is permanent. It will always be there (bhav). Whereas that
I suspect I experienced emotional abuse / developmental trauma as a result of explosive fights and constant conflict in the home caused by my Mom. 😫[…]
The problems originating in the past are not solved by returning to the past especially with our present state of ignorance. Trying to resolve it
My Sister’s child is 2.5 Y/o, and the parents are very tense about him not speaking. He very rarely makes any sound. What to do? 👼🏼
Some children pick up speech as late as five years. Speak to him a lot. See also if he responds to sounds. Show him to
You mentioned a British Naval officer called Rutledge who saluted Sri Aurobindo. Who was he? What actually happened? 🫡🔥
He was not British but an American Admiral. He became a devotee who would come and live here for long periods of time and serve
Dear Dada, I want to know how to destroy the old and damaged photographs, blessings packets, messages, calendar, etc., of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. Is there any specific writing of the Mother on this issue? 🖼️🌊
Somewhere i had read, possibly in Champaklal ji’s book that they are best submerged in water, in a river or sea.
If not too
I am struggling to choose the right life partner. There are two men in my life. One of them I have known for a long time, and I see that he is naturally drawn to the Mother and Sri Aurobindo, guided by his own aspiration, and he walks this path from within. 👰🏼🔥[…]
Isn’t the choice obvious. The first person will join you in the psychic core, the second in the vital. These promises of changing do not
Regarding the Meditation question: I simply concentrate at Heart and above the Head. 🧘🏼♂️
Very good. Go deeper into it without worrying about the heat in the sole of the feet. It will get sorted out.
Sir, recently, in replying to a question, you said that leftists are experts in propaganda and narratives. But sir, this same allegation can be directed against the current ruling dispensation at the Centre also (the famous or infamous IT cell). 🤔📺[…]
Yes. Quite in agreement with your observations. There are certain lacunas in governence (by any party) which leads to a dissatisfaction and change, the anti-incumbency.
