Alok da, what is your age😊?
The one who is answering you is ageless but if you are asking about the physical age then well I was born on the …
Hanuman, Jamvant and the vanar sena. We Indian ‘s take these beings on faith buy for people of different faiths, how are these beings to be introduced so that they do not doubt their authenticity. And a few others too like Kak bhushundi, Garudha and a few others, if any. Please explain so that the foreigners are thoroughly convinced. I’m stuck at this point so as always do help me. It is a task the Mother has given me as I was imploring Her for some service I could render 🙏
The Ramayana and the Mahabharata are called as itihasa or history. But the history these wonderful works describe are two critical moments during the collective
Namaste Alokda, Recently read is a book called – Psychic Being (Soul, its nature, mission and evolution)’ by Sri Aurobindo and The Mother. Question was, Do both the soul🦢 and the Psychic Being exist together?
The soul is a portion of the Divine and is present like the essence in everything, just as the formless fragrance in a flower. This
I don’t know what should I do because these two thought of (1) “Aspiring for a full & fulfilling life so that I feel full and am truly open to give my attention and energy and true care to others – work towards this aspiration keeping it as a goal” and (2) “Accept current life as is and see the fullness in it” feel contradictory. Could you please help integrate this contradiction🤨?
Individual progress, in whatever direction, often comes at the expense of the shared social life around us unless those closely connected also have the same
Today, I had a question. We all make mistakes😯, usually driven by impulses….May it be of sorrow, anger, jealousy, agony, in the root of all of which there is fear….It is easy ,in fact truly the easiest task to be driven by an impulse and make a mistake which may ruin several aspects of life,or leave a make which remains for long periods of time..Well is there any way to heal the harm you mistake has caused to everyone else and convey your corrected believes ,which are now free of the misbelieves caused by fears to everyone else, without having to wait for time to take charge and heal…
Beautiful questions, especially for your age. It shows a rare sensitivity that has the potential to blossom into a beautiful being. At the same time
What does lower nature mean? And then if we have to rise to higher nature then one should not have husband-wife💑 relationship also? Right?

First of all, this is not about my father, or his soul, I have many questions about the Soul😇 himself. Let me share the how his soul passed on…
It is not easy to arrive at this kind of high consummation of the soul after departure. Your father was especially blessed by Her Grace.
Mother writes in her essay ‘To Know How to Suffer😵’: “Each time we feel that our heart is breaking, a deeper door opens within us, revealing new horizons, ever richer in hidden treasures, whose golden influx brings once more a new and intenser life to the organism on the brink of destruction”. Is this new life after suffering given only to those who call upon the Divine or to everyone? Because some seem to be consumed by suffering that they rarely come out of it well.
Suffering is a common experience of humanity but it’s degree, nature, impact and consequences differ. It is easy to see that the root cause of
I have a habit of biting things as I need to figit with things for concentration 🤔what should I do?
It is just a habit and you can get rid of it simply by becoming conscious and ignoring when the urge arises. Or else you
What is the best way to maintain calm and equanimity and keep a feeling of strength when seeing old people suffer🤕?
One should turn the focus away from the physical body and focus more on the inner being and the soul. One should remind oneself and
How to start relying on Divine 😇for everything?
Relying on the Divine for everything does not mean that I will not put in any effort for anything since the Divine will give me
How do I get rid of jealousy🤢, it’s a really big problem for me. But I don’t want it. I tried searching through Mother’s works but can’t seem to find anything major. I know I should keep offering, but what effort am I to put in from my part ? When it comes it’s so overwhelming and no matter how much I try to step back, fight it with reason or simply reject it, it’s not working. I find myself comparing myself constantly, wanting what others have, even though I hate the thoughts. As far as I can remember, since I was a child this has been a problem for me and it’s grappling.
Jealousy comes due to a feeling of inadequacy within oneself. As a result we keep comparing ourselves with others with the attendant results of ambition,
We have been married since few years, we cannot conceive naturally and now we feel the pressure😥 of having a child socially, it’s like I don’t feel like going out or meeting people as all we hear is when are we hearing good news or it’s high time that you plan a child, and to add to all this everyone around us are having children, how to handle this situation?
The first thing required is to be clear as to what both of you want. I suppose both of you also want a child but
Can you please explain the episode of Krishna 🦚 stealing the robes of the gopis, many stupid people have put this episode in wrong light calling Sri Krishna as a womaniser etc
Sri Aurobindo with his profound knowledge of spiritual truths as well as of human psychology observes about this incidence in the Bhagwat Purana as follows.
As Mother has said the supera mental realisation will take 300 to 500 years or even 1000 years…so what does it mean after this duration will there be no work left for divine , of divine …will every one reach at their destined goal 😌??
Manifestation will never end because the Divine is eternal and infinite. The only difference is that the further Manifestation will be in freedom and …
I am at a marriageable age and looking for boys through an arrange marriage, now evenone has their opinions and I don’t know what to do but yes I do want to get married and find love but can it be possible this way 🤨?
Love happens when it has to happen. One cannot find it this way. Not that there is anything wrong with trying to find someone whom
I feel suffocated😖 in crowded places, especially when there’s loud music and constant chatter. I find it hard to speak up in those situations, and organizing or participating in events isn’t really my strength. People often assume I’m dumb because I stay quiet. Is this a bad quality? I prefer spending my time reading books of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo, listening to your talks, and talking to people who are connected to Maa. I’m unsure how to handle this because I work in an IT company, and this environment feels out of sync with who I am.
You are like the swan in the company of kingfishers. Don’t try to be like them. Instead walk with your head held high towards high
When you get a chance, can you please elaborate😳 on the below lines further. Thank you Alok da, “….The power of the vital should be mistrusted, it is a tempter on the path of the work, and there is always a risk of falling into its trap, for it gives you the taste of immediate results; and, in our first eagerness to do the work well, we let ourselves be carried away to make use of this power. But very soon it deflects all our action from the right course and introduces a seed of illusion and death into what we do.”
The Vital enjoys action for the sake of action. Its impetus is desire of one kind of the other. Though it starts with much apparent
