You mentioned in one of you answers that Sri Aurobindo wasn’t Sri Rama. But aren’t both Avatars ☀️of the same Purushottama? Then how are they different?
All Avatars come from the same Divine Source. In this sense they are one. But there is a difference in manifestation hence we cannot say
Recently while you replying to a letter💌 told that taking up spirituality early in life is not desirable. But if a call comes early, what will he do then?
By early I meant adolescence. It is because the vital nature at this age is full of passions and desires. Taking to spiritual life can
What is the meaning of inner Ashram bhaiya 🤨?

Kindly elucidate the following lines of Savitri-1)The chamber where the glorious enemies kiss (Book 3 Canto 2 line 34)🤔
The Supramental in which the Spirit and Matter both meet in their respective truth, as complimenting rather than opposing each other…
Keeping small temple at home and doing puja of the statues, is it right? The statues are from ages being prayed at home🙏 ?
They are certainly not idols or statues but the living Presence of Lord Rama and Sita Mata. Their dual Presence brings the courage and strength
Hi sir, my nerves often get overwhelmed by strong emotions. When I feel afraid or angry, my nerves get overwhelmed extremely shaken up. Sometimes even when I have to perform in a musical instrument, my hands get so shaky that I start making a lot of mistakes. People have pointed this out to me. Perhaps other people also feel afraid and nervous, but then my nerves get incomparably more affected😨. Are there any practices that are known to help increase one’s nervous strength and equality?
You should do regular deep breathing exercises and Nadi Shuddhi pranayam. It calms the nerves. Even merely observing the breath has a calming effect on
I had a dream in which I saw myself telling my wife that I will get married twice. She then pointed towards the window in the room, and there were two lines written on the glass. I don’t remember the upper one, but the lower one read: ‘Kabir, Dadu Dayal, had one wife.’ Do the lines seen in the dream have any meaning, and what is the meaning of this dream😐?
This kind of writing is definitely significant. It is an indication not to have a second marriage if ever such a suggestion …
Mother says in Agenda that “when the Lord draws nearest to men to establish a conscious relationship with them, it is then that, in their folly, men do the most foolish things.” She says that some do this out of panic and some because they cannot bear the Light. What exactly are these foolish things and how can one be vigilant enough to avoid being trapped and fail to respond when the Hour of God is near🤔?
The most foolish thing is to turn away from the Divine out of fear. They panic because they fear losing their ego and their limited
Does the will of a person and his free choice depend totally on an individual or there are other forces,factors or circumstances which influence his will and choice?Are the changes which are coming gradually just because of people experiences of their past or something more than that which decides to bring a nation out of its darkness towards light? What are the important aspects of the Divine Play🤨?
If you ask in an absolute sense then of course there is no such free will operating independent of everything else. Always we are pushed
Is there a story or legend about a Rishi who cursed the land where Auroville now stands? If so, what is that story, and how does it relate to the Mother’s vision for Auroville 🤔?
It is a few centuries old legend of a Shaiviite Siddha who was the patron saint of the area now known as Auroville. Once when
Would you please elaborate your answer to a question “Who am I”. Specifically the last 2 lines “Individually you are a portion of the Divine Mother, Her beautiful child whom you will gradually discover and identify with one day. Spiritually you and all of us are the Divine wearing a human form and name.🤨”
It means that we exist at several levels each with its corresponding identity. But the core identity, the permanent truth of our being, is that
You said that destruction was completely avoidable if those involved in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata responded to the Divine Will but it is also said that Divinity of an Avatar will be fully manifested when there is great darkness or adversity at the other side. Without Ravana how the Divinity of Rama would have been fully manifested and also without Kansa or Duryodhana how the Divinity of Krishna would have been fully manifested? There is also the story of Jai – Vijay so is it the leela of the Divine for his complete manifestation or the distortion in creation🤔?
Yes this is the other complimentary truth that the greater the darkness, individually as well as collectively, the greater the possibility of Light. India is
Dada now I experience that when I open to the mother and Sri Aurobindo I feel the difficulties in lower part but when spontaneously my thought turns to Sri Krishna all the obstacles of lower nature vanishes and I feel peace. Why this is happening? Due to this unknowing difficulties I am not able to turn The Mother and Sri Aurobindo. When I think about Sri Aurobindo I feel causeless doubt, depression, no aspiration and bhakti towards mother and Sri Aurobindo. What should I do😥?
It is definitely the play of the mind making you feel like this. The only truth, if at all, could be that turning towards Sri
Being a bad friend: I see a certain insensitivity in me to other people. I lack empathy in some situations, and it makes me feel very bad about myself. I have lost friends in the past because of this. While I generally try to help people, there is something in me unsympathetic towards others. Because of this tendency, I feel myself incapable towards building lasting friendships. I have cried about it, and at this point I don’t even feel like having friends anymore because I’m conscious of this defect in my nature, so I don’t want to repeat the same cycle again and experience the same moral pain that I feel. For now, I can only observe it and feel bad about it. How to change it I have no idea🫤.
This is not such a big defect and in certain ways it is not necessarily a defect. It is possibly because you make your own
I often experience a Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) when I’m not active on social media platforms like Instagram or when I think about deleting my accounts. It’s about missing out on what’s happening in other people’s lives, falling behind on the latest trends, conversations, or even useful content related to my interests like painting, health, and more. What if I feel disconnected without being on these platforms? Also, Why do these feelings arise, and how can I manage them in a healthier way without relying on social media for a sense of belonging or staying informed😥?
These feelings arise from the collective suggestions that are floating around. The more one externalises through these means such as the social media provides, the
Last night, I read a page of ‘Savitri’ before going to sleep. Whenever I read something from ‘Savitri,’ it feels like something is descending within me. It’s like a kind of intoxication that comes with peace. Around 4 AM, I heard a voice within me saying, ‘I am The Mother, I am within everyone, and it is I who is doing everything.’ Are these just my thoughts that are coming to me? Besides this, it has happened two or three times that the name ‘Radha’ starts within me at night. Could there be some deep truth to all this🤨?
Thoughts are not formed by the individual brain or mind but received from several cosmic agencies. The reading of Savitri opened the doors of your
When Sri Aurobindo came back to India, the darkness left him. What does it signify🤔? India was still under British oppression that time.
It means that he overcame the first battle, the inner battle, though of course, as Sri Aurobindo would always say, it happened as a gift
Can you please explain these lines from Savitri🕊️: Even Light and Love by that cloaked danger’s spell Turned from the brilliant nature of the gods [conti]
These lines from Savitri, Book Two Canto Seven, The Descent into Night, reveal the action of the forces of darkness upon earth nature. These forces
