Why do I experience deep fall in consciousness intermittently? Why do I commit inexcusable acts whenever I start approaching the Mother and Sri Aurobindo with much intensity? I have encountered these situations many a time, whenever I come to Pondicherry, or when I am returning from Pondicherry, after a Satsang at home, or returning from attending a Satsang at the Centre.

And even if creation was to separate and reach a higher origin, that too doesn’t make sense to me because why would the Almighty need 7 pralayaas to progress – surely he can do that without the need for this much ?

The other day I came to know that in the west now women have started charging for the work they put in for their family like cooking, cleaning etc, as according to them its the value of their time and labour.
