We know of so many people who are facing impossible situations and problems and they are helpless. They do not know what to do or whom to ask.
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.
What is real happiness, and where do Sri Aurobindo and The Mother truly want to lead us through Integral Yoga? I struggle to understand why dishonest, unspiritual people often thrive effortlessly with wealth, fame, and societal respect, while an honest devotee is consumed by domestic conflicts, illness, self-doubt, and constant hardship. 🧭💛[…]
First of all this is an overgeneralised statement. Most alcoholics and people who are engaged in crime are not happy. They are in great distress
I don’t know if my question is valid or not, but I am still asking: all souls (potentially an infinite number of souls), when all combined together, have emerged from an infinitesimal portion of the Divine Mother? ✨🌱
All souls have emerged from the Divine and since the Divine is Infinite the number of souls are also potentially countless. But this emergence is
1. Will they allow us to go to Sri Aurobindo’s room on our birthday like before, or how is it now? Should we go and tell them a day prior to our birthday? Whom should we inform? 🌸📖 […]
Now a days, since last few years birthday visit to Sri Aurobindo’s room is not allowed. But there is a special meditation for birthday persons
I was riding in the back of an army jeep driven by a decorated veteran, speeding violently over rubble into enemy lines amidst brutal urban combat. As the driver launched the vehicle off a collapsed structure, I was thrown clear, landing among allied soldiers amid horrifying scenes of fire, death, and relentless artillery. 👶🏻🌿[…]
Once again the dream indicates a gradual movement away from the zone of conflict that the vital nature represents. The army people are the divine
Even without overt inner realizations, the growing conviction that the Mother has chosen and cares for us is itself an active nectar—a true sanjivani for the being. 🌸🙏🏻[…]
This itself is the sign of psychic opening. All the rest comes through this door.
While having a conversation with my physical mother, she told me an interesting thing that I also related to my childhood. She told me that when I was in her womb, she used to hear the hissing of snakes often, and as far as I remember, in my childhood till around age 20, I had many dreams of snakes. 🐍📖 […]
It is not necessarily bad energies. Snakes also represent evolutionary forces that chase us until we take the needed leap. Whatever it be, they have
When Sri Krishna played Raas Leela with Gopis who were married and had left their husbands and children, He was hardly 10 years old. How could they be roused by Krishna’s beauty with romantic feelings towards a child who is like their son, if not like a younger brother? 🪈🙏🏻 […]
The Bhagawat Purana is written by a Rishi no less than the calibre of Vyasa. The entire Purana is profound in its depth, spiritual and
I am wondering if you have anything to say on the order of practice. And in the relation to quite detailed descriptions of processes, with a certain order and division, we may see this in Sri Aurobindo’s writing on the Sapta Chatusthaya, and in the Mother’s sometimes very simple quotes on simply remaining open to her. 📖🙏🏻[…]
The Saptachatustya described in the Records of Yoga is the program given to Sri Aurobindo as part of his personal sadhana.
Its general version
I understand that we should live in the present moment and remain open to the Divine Will. However, I find it difficult because I do not really enjoy the work I am presently doing. How can I remain peaceful, sincere, and open to the Divine while being fully present in a work that I do not enjoy? 🌱🙏🏻
The Gita gives us the complete answer to this problem.
First thing is to take up an activity that is in line with your
For quite some time now, whether I am awake, moving about, or simply sitting, I have been seeing visions—such as symbols of animals or the sun. I neither consciously think of them nor deliberately visualize them; they appear on their own, sometimes clearly and at other times faintly. 🔥🕊️☀️[…]
These seem to be true visions possibly due to an inborn faculty in you which has continued from previous life.
Fire in the heart is
Recently I began meditating on my psychic being behind the heart. I have also made a concerted aspiration to the Mother to bring my psychic being to the front. I felt a good deal of progress and had some dreams that also encouraged this feeling that progress was being made. 🌸🛡️ […]
The explosion is clearly the sign of entry into forbidden and uncharted territories of consciousness. It is an early sign of opening to the cosmic
Dada, here, “find your own partner and make your choices” do you mean a life partner? 🤝🧭
Yes, a life partner with whom you can walk your life together and share the journey. Unless you have decided to stay alone. Getting married
In this context, I have one more humble question for which I seek your guidance. What is the spiritual significance of the sacred soil on the Samadhi? Furthermore, if and when this sacred soil is removed or replaced, what is done with it? 🌸🙏🏻 […]
It is a similar if not the same significance as of something touched by the Master or the Mother. In India it is a common
Can you please give an example of how I can take up different works with my Swabhava being the same? I’m accustomed to thinking about Swabhava as a natural aptitude, and a predisposition, or an inclination for a particular field of work. 🧭🌱
Natural aptitude is fine but the same natural aptitude adapts itself in different streams of work.
Take for example a seeker after knowledge. The
In the context of love, The Mother has said, “not to insist on the other’s response”… What does it mean in a more elaborate sense? 💛🌸
There are gradations of love as it evolves in creation.
The first stage when one wants someone or others to love us. Next, we
What is the meaning of the tale of Kacha and Shukracharya in Mahabharata? What is the symbolic meaning behind Kacha bursting out of Shukracharya’s belly and then making him alive? Also, why is Shukracharya guru of the asuras?
Oh, that’s a most fascinating story, one of my favorites. The story is from the Adi Parva of the Mahabharata. The daitya guru Shukracharya has
Earlier, I asked you about the line in Savitri: ‘It tired of its unchanging happiness’. You explained that the central being got tired of sameness even when it was the most delightful one. 📖✨ […]
The tiredness was due to sameness. The supramental world, on the other hand is an ever new marvel renewed constantly due to the full awareness
We are a family of two brothers and one elder sister. Since our childhood, our parents have inspired all of us to develop faith and devotion towards the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. As time passed and our understanding of life evolved, our faith sometimes grew stronger and sometimes became weaker. 🏡🙏🏻 […]
I completely understand your situation. Unfortunately it is far too common and a problem quite universally. An ancient saying goes that children of the same
