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.
Should the fight in Mathura, Varanasi and Sambhal continue till the Hindus get justice? 🛕🙄🙏🏻🌼
It is not simply about Hindus getting justice. It is also about the healing needed for a wounded civilisation. It is also about the Muslims
Just like last time, I have been assigned seva (selfless service) in the fields again. However, the last time it was winter, so the heat of the sun wasn’t really felt; this time, it is scorching hot, and my body is unaccustomed to this kind of labor. 😣💔🌻🌄[…]
Work is an important part of the Integral Yoga. Realising the Divine in inner meditation, inner subjective experiences, trance states, do not change us except
I am writing as someone deeply drawn to Sri Aurobindo’s vision of Integral Yoga and sincerely contemplating a life of serious practice. However, I am seeking clarification regarding Sri Aurobindo’s stance on sexuality, particularly for those aspiring toward full-time or wholehearted Integral Yoga. 🙄🙏🏻🌸🦋[…]
The role and place of sex in spiritual life can be basically summarised as follows.
In normal ordinary life sex is a strong driving
For the last 2 months, I have been having dreams of accomplished yoga practitioners and the dreams are symbolic like a practitioner is giving orders to someone like a king- someone who shows more emotions from outside but, on the inside, bows down to the Guru as a formality! 💭🤔🌻[…]
Yes it is never helpful to see the real or unreal defects of anyone, let alone sadhaks. Human nature is too complex and each one
I’ve been trying to develop a healthy outlook on the dynamics of man-woman relationships in the midst of a lot of mutually contradictory advice from parents, friends, and other parties. As of late, I started to investigate the old and still popular idea of the man being the dominant side of the relationship, with the woman submitting to his will and being obedient to him. […]💑👨👩🦰👐
The idea of male dominance is outdated and outrightly childish. Men and women are and should be equal partners. In fact if one is to
I have been a devotee of Hanumanji from my childhood. Traditionally we believe that Hanumanji still stays in the earth. I am curious that in the present Avatar of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo, what is the role he is playing? Also, have you had any experiences with him? Thank you!⛰️🧡🏹🙏
Hanuman ji is a wonderful god who grants bhakti and shakti to those engaged in the sewa of The Lord. That has been my experience
But there also might be some instances where I have to see or face something that is inappropriate or sensitive. How do I find the courage? 🔥😶🌫️🌼🌌
The most powerful method is to see the Divine in and behind everything. The first step towards that is to cultivate equanimity and wideness. It
A historian from the early 20th century, Dhan Gopal Mukerji, remarking on historical awareness in India, writes: “Properly speaking India had no history. We as a race have no consciousness of it, for our history has been written mostly by foreigners – the Greeks, the Arabs and the Chinese. … 📜🥸🌼[…]
This is the typical example of defining something in a particular (and limited) way and thereby destroying its truth. If history is merely about the
What I meant is simply that you don’t need to act hatefully to act decisively. You CAN see the Divine in the rapist, forgive them in your largeness of mind, and THEN or SIMULTANEOUSLY take an affirmative retaliatory action against them. 🤔❤️🩹🌼[…]
You are quite right here. But to answer to someone not on the same page, you may explain it thus that hate, anger, spitefulness, vengeance,
Today I dreamed of 3 or 4 lions lying together and play-fighting in a small room. They were completely unaware of me. I was lying on a single bed in an adjoining room, from where I could watch them. 💭🦁🏡[…]
The lions are the protective power of the Divine. They attack and devour if we are afraid or harboring lower animal impulses. They would generally
Why is it so natural to forget our Mother in a day? Rather, it should be natural to live with her remembrance and most effectively, with her consciousness all the time. Or I feel as if we don’t know how to love her; that’s why this is happening. When will it become natural to live in her? 🙄🙏🏻🪷❤️🔥
It is because we are not made up of one piece. There are many different parts in our nature. Some open readily and remember the
What is most conducive to a spiritual lifestyle? Reading paper books or e-readers or a combination of both? The assumption here is that the reader is sincere and loves reading. 📖🪷🖥️
I suppose its each one’s comfort zone. But personally I find much greater joy and connection through the paperbacks. Soft copies somehow do not give
Recently, I fear everything from the smallest to the largest; every small thing gives me a sensation of anxiety, of “what will happen?”. And this has disrupted my whole body’s mechanism. My digestion has been disturbed; I cannot eat properly… 😥🥀🦋[…]
Fear comes when we are turned upon ourselves, when we think of ourself. Instead we should turn our mind and its energies towards the work
I have been regularly listening to your talks since nearly 2 years. Though I am on the path of loving devotion and surrender to Radhakrishna, the marg of Brajrasik saints, and not much inclined to the path of impersonal Brahman or the gyani marg. 🌌😊🙏🏻🌻[…]
It is very much possible but the effects are not due to the gyana alone. A wide, impersonal, calm inner state that can develop in
Whenever I watch your videos or read the description of Savitri, I feel grateful for you for the service you have for your mother. How did this sense of service come in you? Along with grace, what is it that a Sadhak can do?🔥😊🙏🏻🌼[…]
If you ask me, I would genuinely say Grace. I was born in a middle order family that had enough to take care of all
What form might Bhakti take in the New Creation? 😊🙏🏻🪷
It is with the identification of oneself with the Psychic Being as a portion of the Divine, as one’s true individuality that beings of the
Bhaiya, how did you deal with the whole Rakhi thing when your sister used to send you rakhis? I find this whole thing to be more of a formality: sending the rakhi, then repeatedly asking if I’ve tied it or not, asking for photos, etc. 📿👦🏻🏵️👧🏻[…]
As an adolescent I would react against all these customs and traditions, not because they are wrong but because, they are not needed to express
Why do people lie and hide things, Alok da? 😔🥀
People hide things because of fear…
