Alok da – How do I silence my mind?🤯🧠💡🌊
Silencing the mind is relatively difficult because it depends ultimately on the descent of the Divine Silence or an ascent into it. What is easier
Jai Maa Dada….. In ordinary life when some time due to some unwanted situation, toxic people we make false or negative formation consciously or unconsciously……does it impact to that person or that situation???? please put light on it…… Jai Maa🤮☢️🐍🦂🚩
Yes, it impacts both persons, the one who makes such a formation as well as the person towards whom this formation is made. Formations are

That way people say so many things in the Ashram but these need not be true. You have to go by what you feel. See
I am now reading the canto “Issue” I understand within my mind’s capacity. I have a question here. In the beginning of this Canto, Savitri’s thought process to cancel the fate (death of Satyavan) is described. Can you give the main idea by which she wants to cancel the fate to bring a new life to Satyavan? ☀️🌌🕊️📜
It is mentioned in the Canto itself, for example.

Sir, what is subjective and objective?🎨🎭📐🔬
आत्मनिष्ठ or आत्मपरक is that which we know with reference to our self. It is real to us because…
My question is: in all religions, there is a concept of calling out to God in a time of need, anxiety, or other tough states of mind. My question is, calling out to The Mother in such a time, is it more a request for direct intercession (like Prahlad and Lord Narasimha) or more a reminder to ourselves to be less fearful? 👑🌌♾️🛡️
All religions do not believe in the intercession of God in human affairs. Religions like Buddhism and Jainism do not even believe in ‘God’. Vedanta
Jai Maa Alok Daa. I wanted your guidance. A few months back, I had a dream where I saw Mother coming towards me with a luminous white light. But the problem is that I got scared and opened my eyes, and I was shaken. Why did this happen? It was a good dream, and I should have been happy to see Maa. What could be the reason for this fear inside me? I want to call Maa to my side again. Please guide me on what I should do.💤😴🌙💭
It is the ego-individuality that shrinks at the contact of the Divine as it is afraid of losing itself. It is not uncommon for the
Do Elves, Gnomes, and other such beings have a physical-material body? We hear stories of them acting directly on physical objects, like fixing machines and taking care of gardens.. wouldn’t vital beings require a medium? If any such beings are around, would we be able to see them with our physical eyes, without requiring any special capacities? Can they be photographed? In one of your talks you said that a being from other world can materialise for a short while, but they would be uncomfortable here. Is that proper-physical matter with Mass, that can be seen, touched etc…🧘✨🌈🧬⚡
These beings belong to the subtle physical world very close to the material. If the physical senses are developed one may sometimes catch a hurried
Mother mentions ‘equality does not mean indifference’. Please explain how to differentiate between equality and indifference.⚖️🟰🤝🫶
Indifference is useful to develop equality. It is a tool, one of the processes, not equality itself. Indifference helps us not to react to the
The fulfillment of human life is by attaining all Purusharthas, Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha. Then Human life fulfills its purpose. Where as by The birth of Superman from human, The Srishti , the creation itself fulfills its Divine purpose of manifestation. So one can finish his life as a fulfilled human existence or evolve further into Superman by fulfilling The Divine purpose in manifestation. If so, please tell me if I am right? ⚡🌤️🪷🌌
There are different ways of looking at it. But the simplest of these is that ‘he who choses the Infinite has been chosen by the
In my college, I have a friend who is a good person, but she often speaks in a low-energy, negative way—mainly complaining, criticizing, or focusing on things she wants but doesn’t have. I’ve tried explaining that this kind of conversation affects me and makes me uncomfortable, but there hasn’t been much change. Even after keeping some distance, she doesn’t seem to understand. Whenever we meet, either I end up hurting her by not engaging much, or she starts the same low-energy conversations again. I don’t want to hurt her, but I’m not sure how to handle the situation.🙄🗣️🙅♀️☁️
You can try explaining to her that a critical negative attitude towards others harms both. It only strengthens this tendency. Everyone has their faults and
Thank you very much Alok da – this is very helpful. As a westerner reading Sri Aurobindo and the Mother alone here in Canada, I don’t always understand references that are made in the writings or podcasts. I came to Sri Aurobindo through the writings of Ken Wilber and find really no need for any other writings than the words of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. I have found your books and podcasts very helpful in trying to understand them both. Thank you once again.📜📚✍️☀️
Yes their books are complete in itself, honey combs extracted from the treasure trove of the gods.
I wish if I could somehow know what The Mother is Saying to Me Or Telling Me to Do, that If I Could Really Know…🪷🌹🌌🤍
To know what the Divine is saying requires an inner quietude and peace that comes by removing the noise of desires. The Divine does not

Last night I had a dream where I, along with my two cousins (one brother and one sister), went to the market to buy some things. First, he gave me a bag full of screws and nut bolt openers, saying they would be useful to me. Then I started to defecate there, and my sister said that her baby was about to be born. She then gave birth to a baby right there. The baby didn’t cry when it was born; instead, it smiled. I said it was a boy, but he wasn’t crying at all, he was completely silent. I was wondering why he wasn’t crying.🌙🌃😴💤
The dream indicates a ‘purge’, a release of certain unwanted energies and at the same time birth of new possibilities, perhaps as the result of
Can you please tell me how to recite or do sadhana of Sri Aurobindo Gayatri mantra?🪷☀️❤️🔥📿
There is no fixed way to recite the Sri Aurobindo’s Gayatri though you will find quite a few on the YouTube. More important is to
