Me and my wife used to fight a lot on various things….we went through this phase for more than 4-5 years. Two major points of our fights was (1) me not being straightforward in my communication and actions (2) Me not being like her father. We went through therapy and a lot of hard times to get through that phase and now we are kind of over it. Now she blames me for being too straight forward and being too much like her dad. Please advice what should I do…..I can’t go back to being to old person I was😬?

Regarding controlling one’s mind and thoughts, it is often said by meditation teaches that all you need is remain fully conscious and the mind and thoughts fall into place. A fully conscious and concentrated man finds that his mind no more controls him. It is being unaware of oneself that results in a disorganised and scattered mind, they say. Is it right that awareness in itself is enough to conquer the mind😬? There is a question of willpower as well.
It is easier said than done. In my personal interaction I have met meditation teachers who went into quite a depression and needed help. There
Social drinking 🥂is common among young people who drink occasionally, very responsibly without harming health or life in general or getting addicted to alcohol. So is this kind of responsible drinking ok? What is your advice? What if the person is a non believer and is not seeking spiritual life? And just wants to live well on earth
Believing or not believing is not an issue. The question is why does a person drink? In the absence of faith one uses reason to
I don’t feel like do anything. It seems that aspiration and will are being exhausted. Earlier, there was so much devotion, there was aspiration and there was a desire for progress, but now only destruction is visible on all sides. Why are there so many difficulties😥? Mind, vital, physical all are creates obstacles. Neither to study nor to make efforts, no one can do it. Without any reason the mind doubts. As this is his habit. The automatic sees any thing and suddenly judge it. I am not experiencing anything and it feels like I am not progressing. One thing has happened during this, I have realized that the evil that is in everyone’s heart is also in my heart. Why does this happen and what should I do in this situation?
These are phases that come in every seekers life because there are many parts and aspects in us. That is why taking to spiritual life
Sri Aurobindo writes in his book Essays Divine and Human: “Matter, Life, Mind, Supermind or Gnosis, and beyond these the quadruple power of a supreme Being-Consciousness-Force-Bliss—these are the grades of the evolutionary ascent from inconscience to the Superconscience.” (pg.249) He also writes that “The evolution of the earth nature is not finished because it has manifested only three powers out of the seven-fold scale of consciousness that is involved in manifested Nature. It has brought out from its apparent inconscience only the three powers of Mind and Life and Matter.” (pg.244) Can we infer from this that after Supermind, the luminous planes of Sat, Chit and Ananda will be evolving here on earth🧐? Of course, the question is mainly to know if I have correctly comprehended Sri Aurobindo’s vision of evolution and its fulfilment here on earth
Absolutely so. After the Supramental Manifestation and the Supramental body there will be the Manifestation of Bliss and the bliss body. Sri Krishna worked for

Is having an female orgasm a animal thing? And yet why is it an enjoyable feeling so if we are suppose to move away from animal feelings then why is it given and if it is natural then why in yoga it does not have its place, so how to overcome these sensations?

From the lines of Savitri🕊️: I will pursue thee across the centuries; Thou shalt be hunted through the world by love, Naked of ignorance’ protecting veil And without covert from my radiant gods. Gods are generally considered a benevolent influence. So what does the line ‘without covert from my radiant gods.’ mean?
There are these two masks that prevent us from realising the unity of the Divine and His direct unfettered action in us. The first is
Following is the loose translation of what I heard in one of the podcasts about Tantra recently:- Supreme mother is Creatrix. She is constantly creating forms by constraining her aspects. In this process of constraining, negative forces like evil, ignorance, sufferings etc come into existence by default. To change this natural course of involution to evolution at an individual’s level, she needs to be worshipped as no one other than her has that might. Tantra is all about her intense worship like this by involving all the triple aspects of the individual – sharira, vicharna and bhavana. Here various higher deities play an important role by providing support in their power if approached by the individual. Your kind thoughts🙏
The traditional Tantra understands the Mother and her Powers as manifested so far in the lower manifestation of which we are a presently a part.

Don’t to you think this marriage is more risky gamble for Man now since laws are also not very supportive for them? Is it better to avoid marriage😡?

In one of your answer you said “Yoga is a psycho-spiritual science and not a rule book of moral science”. Please Explain what does The Yoga as a psycho-spiritual science mean🤔?
It means that the practice of yoga implies an understanding of the psychological forces that ordinarily move us, such as the dualitues of love, attachment,
