My question is how to deal with countless past mistakes that we can not correct, but that cause frustration and hopelessness in life. Many present conditions are due to the consequences of past deeds. How do we deal with this? There is always the thought that things would be different if I had acted in a different way.π«¨π₯β³π
‘Mistakes and errors’ are part of the evolutionary process and common to everyone. In the eyes of the Divine they are not mistakes but steps
Sir Aurbindo said something Subtle Physical. What is it, and how is it different from the Physical? And the Mother wrote that you can meet him in sleep, – how is it possible? What’s the purpose of Sri Aurobindo to leave Physical?π€β¨π§ππ
The subtle physical or the true physical is matter before it plunges into the inconscient. It is less dense. As our consciousness becomes subtle and

I have had Psychosis and Anxiety for the past 16.2 years. I have had painful periods in the Past. But instead of growing in strength (by facing a difficult past), I have started fearing pain in life (because my difficult past was unnerving). Is this fear and nervousness because of my Anxiety and Psychosis?ππ€―πͺοΈπ«
It is because the physical mind and nerves react habitually based on past experience. It has no other way to deal with the present or
Sir, I had a dream this morning. Can you explain it? From somewhere I was coming back to somewhere and I have booked an autorikshaw. After travelling some distance, I realised that I am going wrong, so I told him to stop there or turn the rikshaw. π΄π€ππΊπ±[…]
The autorickshaw driver is the mind which believes it knows the way and takes us through a long tortuous road that ends abruptly. It is
If Souls come with Human Birth, how can every Soul have an Animal Past?π΅πππ₯

Jay Maa, I have been reading Savitri for last few years, recently I heard that people also write passages from Savitri daily as a part of their Sadhana. Can you please explain about how it has different effect than reading Savitri?ππ€ποΈβοΈ

While I understand that Helen had to leave her daughter for a greater work (though on the surface it seems selfish), I want to know what kind of compensation such souls, who have suffered directly for the Divine, get. Do they get some special Grace and do they get to be near the Divine as Avatars?β΅ππ¦’π₯π°
Yes, certainly. As the Mother put it, ‘there is a divine recompense for every struggle and suffering.’ Generally this recompense is in the form of

Recently I had watched a video in which a recent monk from Vrindavan, who appears to have some spiritual awakening. He preaches the traditional ascetic ideals, denies creation as illusion and a bondage, and speaks of liberation in some heaven beyond as the only solution etc. But in recent videos he was seen to be moving in a lavish Land Rover with his disciples. He even takes allopathic treatment regarding his kidney problem. But I can not say anything about it in my surroundings as people around me may get offended. But honestly I think this is a hypocrisy. Am I right about it?ππ₯π
I have also found it a hypocrisy. In fact if you really believe that the world is Maya then there is nothing to preach anything

When life feels heavy like everything is crumbling and when one is utterly helpless and cannot support a loved one. And of course, these life situations have weeded out family and friends showing the painful reality of relationships. How is one supposed to have faith and work towards the new creation? Like at times like these, all the emotions go towards finding solutions. And all the enthusiasm and positive emotions towards serving the Mother and Sri Aurobindo just vanish-it is like one could care less about the future and new creation because the present is so challenging and has been so for a very long time! It just feels very very hard. How to direct these painful emotions?π§ π§βοΈβοΈπ₯Ή
These and other challenges are part of the journey of life. Leave the New Creation aside for a moment and see if there is any
I would like to learn the yoga of sleep. The Mother and Sri Aurobindo have spoken (from my limited understanding) on the importance of the yoga of sleep and how that can be a powerful sadhana, where we can enter the subtle physical and into the realms of Sri Aurobindo’s abode. Without Ma and Sri Aurobindo’s physical presence, how can one receive the guidance if one aspires to learn this beautiful knowledge of sleep? πππ΄π€
It is not a separate yoga of sleep that one has to practice but the integral yoga which, in the course of its progression enters
A question came to me when I was listening to one of your recent talks. You were talking about Ilion and the Trojan War there. When Helen of Troy left with Paris, she left behind her little daughter, Hermione. I don’t want to judge the Divine but wouldn’t that have been traumatizing for Hermione to see her mother leave her for her lover? I know in the grand scheme of things the emotions of a little girl hardly matter but I can’t help but feel bad for her. How does the Divine compensate for such sufferings?Β β΅ππ¦’π₯π°
