Should we feel guilty or pressured to get married or have a child just because our parents have health problems like heart conditions, diabetes, etc., and say things like, “What if we die without seeing this? Do it soon so we can witness it”😥?

Alokda please explain the mystery behind the story of manifestation of Durga from the powers of different gods in Durga Saptashati🙏

Alok da, in one of the training videos of new buddhist monks, I saw that they were made to clean toilets with their bare hands. The idea is to cultivate humility and to learn selflessness, to think of others by leaving the toilet clean for others. The idea is also to pare down one’s ego and obey the elders and their spiritual teachings with necessary obedience. I was shocked to see toilets cleaned with bare hands. Is it required to teach spiritual values? Also, is my shock a result of sheer ignorance of buddhist monastic practices? The monks seem to be changing their character for good though🤔.
I am not sure whether one needs to do that or whether it is this that helps them become good, if at all. If the
I am being bothered by a question put forth by many-How to understand the incident of Mother Sita entering into the Earth. How to differentiate it from the act of feeling burdened of the misunderstandings people had about her and giving up on her greater purpose in life and committing self death🫨?
It is clearly a symbolic story as one cannot imagine an actual physical process behind it. Sita Mata embodied the love of Mahalakshmi and she
In your responses, you emphasize inner life, inner growth, and the inner self. What exactly do you mean by these terms? And how should we do that🤔?

In today’s time most of the things we can’t tell to our parents and closed one is it okay to hide the things or tell lie just to keep peace and harmony because you know they won’t understand or shall we just say the things as it is irrespective of whatever be the consequence is🤔?
One should tell the truth only to the Divine who knows us just as we are, who never judges and condemns but fully understands. But
I was once remembering the love I had felt for someone which did not lead to marriage because my father was against it and asked God that it was the most beautiful thing in my life why he had taken it away from me. Instantly i sensed a white light. But what was God trying to communicate to me at that time? Did that mean that he had other plans for me or something else😐?
White light means Divine Wisdom and Compassion indicating that whatever happened was best for you even though you could not understand it at that moment.
Dear Alok da, I have a difficulty in work. I want to remain always the important person in the team, getting to do the impactful stuffs in the project. I feel a bit dejected when this doesn’t happen. Is this due to hidden ambition or desire? I know this is an obstacle to inner life, I end up feeling restless during meditation and lose Her Presence and contact, feel guilty, but keep repeating it. Can you please help me suggest ways to remain calm and focused on feeling Her Presence irrespective of the outer conditions😥.
Yes, it is a form of ambition which is quite natural at your age. But the paradox is that the more we want to be

You have heard & seen of the recent incidents which happened at Pahalgam as well as in West Bengal in Murshidabad district where Hindus are being mercilessly killed & tortured. The so called religion & its followers have become so treacherous recently. We haven’t seen this kind of hostility in a few years. So i want to ask you that what shall be done at this time & what is the ultimate destiny or fate of these radicals & its false hearted people😱?
Let me share with you my response to the same question asked yesterday. It (the recent shooting of tourists by Islamist terrorists) is a wake
Why do always younger siblings get advantage like they first preference to them only for eg if we fight for a pen the adults will say give it to the younger one, it’s very irritating when this happens . Even when the younger does terrible craft ( mostly ) when we say bad to it the younger starts crying and I get scolded and the vise versa happens the adult says you can do better. Even when the younger lies and and I say the truth, but still the elders will give it to her, saying that she will small you give it to her. For example, it happens for a pen which I bought. Younger will say it’s mine lying and the alders give it to her saying you are big let it go. Always it is irritating😡
But it is done so that the elder learns to give and get the joy of giving whereas the younger develops natural respect towards the
Alok da, how does one flourish and use spiritual values at a toxic workplace? Especially when your seniors are ensuring that you are crushed for being on the right side in a place ethics are violated, especially those very seniors ensure that lackeys are given power over you so that one’s morale and courage is destroyed and one falls in line. How does one act spiritually in a workplace as bad as that🤨?

Certain people has the idea that this is my life and i want to govern it whichever way it suits me, what kind of freedom is this? Are such people too much self centred or they are misunderstood with the word Freedom🤔?

With all our gods and goddesses😇, why did we suffer such violence, such brutality at the hands of these savages for 1500 years? And still suffering to these day, wherever we are the minority. What’s the point of having all these gods and goddesses if they can’t protect their people? Where are they hiding? Why are they watching from a safe distance while we go extinct here?
The gods, i mean the true gods who govern the universe as cosmic managers, do not act in a partisan manner as we would like
