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.
Alok da , Throughout our two epics the proud heros make heroic proclamations on how they will not yield to fate, how they will challenge the fate with their will, manhood and courage, they display such a dynamism of self will and resoluteness in such moments and even Savitri’ s tale is about challenging fate but we have also this disposition towards surrender, of telling the mother let thy will be done. Is there any really a bit of conflict between both these standpoints? If my will and desire isn’t exactly in tune with the Mother’s will can I be stubborn like an angry child that I will rather die fighting for it rather than accept the fact that this might not be the Mother’s will🤨?
Here we have to first understand that the Divine Will does not operate freely in the world. If it did so the world would be

Individually, it’s upto us to be ready to allow Mother’s working in us to effect the change of consciousness. But, what about the masses? Will the mass change of consciousness happen anytime soon🤨?

My parents wants me to get a job as soon as possible so that I can get settled as they are getting old. Almost, and I literally mean ‘almost everyday’ they tell me that all we want is jldi jldi job lag jaaye. Ghar basa den tumhara’. And this is the only reason I shifted my career option from philosophy teaching to something else… Although I have not started preparing for anything yet.😪[conti]

Recently, there are so many posts coming up which are saying that the period from 2026 to 2032 is very bad. Many astrologers predicting the same. How far is this true? Does this period hold any special significance as far as the destiny of the world is concerned🫨?

I’m not doing any work and staying at home all day. I tried working, as I had told you earlier that I went to the mines, but everyone there was drinking alcohol, and I became sick. I don’t know if I’m becoming lazy and dodging work or if I simply don’t want to do all of this. It feels like living for money is a selfish life, and I don’t want to live like that. If I do any work apart from serving God, it feels futile to me😥

My husband and i were married after being in relationship for 12 years. My family was against our marriage. So it took time. After 2 years of marriage I discovered he is in affair with another girl. We fought a lot and after taking a chance again we decided to have baby. Now we have a daughter, but his affair is continued. First our families were not knowing about it but now both the families know about it and he is not ready to live with us. He agrees in front of everyone that yes I have another woman in life and it’s because he was not satisfied with me 😢[conti]
Loyalty in marriage is rarer than we would want to believe. Especially men in all ages have been known to have more than one woman
