If I learn to I find it challenging to understand how to truly work for and be for the Mother in the details of my daily activities. I feel that constant, meaningful effort is needed to be true to this aspiration. I need something to bridge the outer side of my work with my innermost aspiration and feeling towards Her. In between, in the psychological (mental and vital) and physical domains, is where most of “me” resides. If I learn to depend on Her more, and focus on something that strengthens the foundation to be nearer to Her, it would keep my mind and emotions meaningfully engaged.

I had another dream: It was raining and I had a small child with me. Then I saw money floating in the rain. The child was trying to go but I stopped him so he wouldn’t get wet. My cousins were also there, so I told them to pick up the money and we would split it half and half. Then one of them asked me how I didΒ question in an exam. I don’t remember clearly, but as far as I can recall, the child was Bal Krishna.πππ€π¦
The child is your psychic being. The exam was whether you will chose to hold the child or get carried away by the money. The
So sir if one is struggling financially, depression, loneliness and clarity how should one take help from the Mother or which mantra, book or meditation or deity (devi devta) to worship. Why the author of das mahavidyas say ki mahavidyas can give moksha?πποΈβ¨πβΎοΈ

“Perhaps the yogis who will come hereafter will be able to perceive this new being as part of the manifestation of the Vigyanamaya”. Is there any yogi, right now who could distinguish that new being as part of manifestation of vigyanamaya?βοΈπ½ππΒ [conti]

Your words there have stayed with me, and they gave me the confidence to reach out now for guidance on an important inner dilemma. I come from a family where the worship of Lord Shiva has been passed down for generations.

In the Savitri Study Circle on Sundays, we are reading Book 10: The Book of the Double Twilight. I would like to understand wider and deeper what is meant with the DOUBLE Twilight?πποΈπ€βΎοΈ

If this body is dead and consciousness or I am the one who knows it, then what will happen if I just keep looking at the body without breathing attentively?π«π§π½ββοΈβ¨ποΈ

Kindly Help me to understand and what attitude I should take according to the meaning of Sri Aurobindo’s aphorism ‘Hate not the oppressor, for, if he is strong, thy hate increases his force of resistance, if he is weak, thy hate was needless.’ because my individual will is too weak. How to strengthen the will and follow the path without deviation?πͺ·ππβΎοΈ
