I sometimes feel that money is important too, and if I continue with commerce… MBA and job, then only I’ll be able to fulfill this wish. The mind is very bad. It keep questioning. Sometimes it get satisfied with my nature and choose a work like philosophy professor, sometimes it looks at my parents and wish to get any job asap to become independent, and sometimes it wants money😥. […]
It is quite natural at your age. Best is to go through sanyama which means to regulate rather than nigragaha or forced repression. Take the

Please explain these lines of Savitri: Immortal hush before the gods are born; […]
The gods come into existence once the Divine Mother impels the Supreme to create. This is beautifully described in the Rig Veda as well as

I am really sorry Alokda. My tone was really very harsh. It was out of disillusionment. Let me explain you the background of it.
There is no need for apology. I understand your feelings. Askalokda has indeed been with a view to help, in whatever limited way, especially the

Alok da, I am not able to be grateful towards the divine😇. I often get the stupid feeling that it is the divine who has taken the form of the universe and ourselves, why should I be grateful for whatever she has done for me as I am not separate from her. How do I let go of this thought?
The mind needs to understand that there is a difference between the intellectual conception of a profound truth and actually realising it. Right now the

It seems that everything I do in life seems to be wrong. Even if I do something with good intention in the end it ends up different to what I expected. I’m finding myself hyper reasoning with decisions to justify them, I feel like I’ve ruined everybody’s life around me. My parents are so unstable and I’ve lost my connection with my best friend😥 […]
You are too young to even think such things. Life has just begun for you. To want to end it is never a good thing.

It is really unfortunate that you are equating the insistence by aging in-laws or parents for wearing sindoor with the practice of hijab & snatching away the girl’s right to education. While the former is not causing any real harm to the women, the later ones are affecting her confidence and restricting growth respectively. This is precisely why I said you were overreacting…[…]
I understand your point about hurting parents etc. But don’t you think the parents too need to also understand the generational shift which is part

How can I definitively cure my chronic illness of ingratitude? How to grow so that this is actualised in us – “we may never forget even for a moment all that we owe to Thee” – the gratitude towards the Divine. And what helps in becoming more grateful towards the humans, animals, trees, flowers, nature around us? 🌱
To feel this way is itself such a rare and beautiful movement. Most human beings simply keep a transactional relation with the Divine. They ask

I do understand the process of transformation is necessary but still my soul has this burning aspiration to be one with the DIVINE, the End Result… 🤗
Beautiful. Union with the Divine is the first step without which all talk about transformation is meaningless.

Why do we sneeze? 🤧
Sneezing is an act to clear the nose of things that may be harmful or irritant to us.

It seems that in your overreaction you have turned this harmless practice of sindoor, mangalsutra etc into something extremely evil. Well, I rest my case here by reminding you that even your beloved Sri Krishna also encouraged the Pandavas to compromise by accepting five villages to establish peace.
Are you sure you are not reading an overreaction because my views are different from yours? Don’t you see the paradox that I responded to

I’ve been watching some amazing videos with Oz Pearlman the mind-reader, which is incredibly fascinating. I am wondering if this is something that one can learn on one’s own. Can you recommend any materials for learning this skill? I imagine it can be incredibly useful in many areas of one’s life😇.
It is a kind of occult power that some have from birth and develop it with practice.
Others do it through a kind of occult

My sister has recently been admitted to a medical college, but she is always unable to control her emotions. She has been sent to hostels twice earlier and she came back both times to home. Again she is caught in the same situation, crying over phone very much and not able to listen to any advice.😥[…]
Meditation may be difficult for her in this unstable state. She should get busy with the studies and do some deep breathing as well as

Why has the popularity of Khatti Shyam ji grown too much in the recent years, people call him Krishna of kaliyuga? But isn’t Krishna just Krishna, why would be a different version of him in kaliyuga? What exactly is the presence in Khattu?
The reason for popularity is always the same. It is the vital forces that attract persons either through lure and dazzling miracles. The very fact

I have read somewhere that the Mother said the souls who are called for integral yoga are themselves asked for it in past lives, and by calling these souls in the path of yoga, they have kept their promise. How come all the souls on Earth are associated with Mother and Sri Aurobindo in their past lives?🤔[…]
Questions are never silly. In fact this is a very appropriate question. Actually the misunderstanding arises due to a mixing up of three different statements

Dear Alok da, When was the picture of the Mother taken that is in the All India Magazine of October 2025. Here is a link to the picture for reference
According to one source, it is taken on 13 February 1957. I was not able to independently confirm it, though.

Sir, who are called in the path of integral yoga? If the establishment of life divine is the goal of integral yoga, will eventually every soul on the earth be called for this yoga in their future lifetime, to make possible the evolution of entire humanity?
Yes this Yoga is meant for the earth and the whole of humanity is bound to be impacted by it. But not all are ready

Your today’s answer on Traditions shows how immature you people are. If she becomes even more stubborn, inspired by your response, what will the atmosphere be like in her home? Why don’t you teach or show a middle path? If she wears these things out of respect when she’s around her in-laws, what’s the harm? Change is bound to come from the next generation anyway, so why the rush? why not let today’s generation be a little more flexible in such emotional issues and prevent families from breaking apart?
The basis of holding families together should be mutual respect and love, acceptance of generational and other differences, above all truth that allows each individual

Dada, please say what is my aim🤔?
Each one has to find their own aim. The smaller the aim, the lesser the effort needed but also lesser the joy of life. Those
