This passage is from your book, Footprints of God, and is by Sri Aurobindo. Could you explain this in a little more detail—what exactly does it mean?👣🪷✨🌌
If we are spread out everywhere as individuals, something no doubt will be done; if we are spread out everywhere in the form of a
I have a question on “When he mentions to his brother Barin that he is able to enter into the first layers of the Supermind or to Motilal Roy that he could dwell in the Parabrahman (the Highest Reality) for 18 hours a day.” When Parabrahman is beyond Supermind, how could the experience of Parabrahman come before Supermind to Sri Aurobindo?🧠⚡☀️🌐
The terms beyond, higher and lower ceases to exist as soon as one steps beyond the cosmic consciousness of the Overmind. What one experiences then
Kindly add more words to, “Nay, He is nearer still to you. HE is in you. HE is you.”🧘♂️✨💖🕯️
It means that the Divine is not far. He dwells within us as our most intimate and true Self. Not only does the Divine dwell
What does lower manifestation mean?🪞➡️👁️🪨

I have difficulty understanding these lines of Sri Aurobindo’s Synthesis of Yoga ‘There can be no Yoga of knowledge without a human seeker of the knowledge, the supreme subject of knowledge and the divine use by the individual of the universal faculties of knowledge;…🧩📜❤️⚡
Yoga implies that to begin with there is a state of separation. This separation awakens the need for union because deep within there always is
From many nights, I have not been able to sleep properly, there are just too many dreams, all different kinds. On waking up my body is shivering and is quite tired. In some dreams I am running in those dreams, sometimes there are places that are very scary. In one or two I did even take up a fight in a dream.💭🌜😴💤
The activities of the day, especially our thoughts and fears determine the quality of our sleep and the nature of our dreams. It is as
Sir, in our home there are lots of Mouse. They make our kitchen dirty. I’m thinking what should I do? Killing them is okay by giving them medicine? What solution will be best?🐭🏠😱
There are three things you can do.
1) Pray to the Divine Mother for help and then sincerely pray to the spirit of the species
I have read or heard that The Mother was not insisting on medicines. Ayurveda was still fine. Is this correct? How medicines are perceived in spiritual life?🌿🥣🍵🍃
The Mother was not fond of Allopathic medications, especially surgery and strong medicines. However She did not insist upon anything and let the disciples make
We read often words by realised being like the Buddha or Swami Vivekananda that ‘We are what our minds make us, we are what our thoughts shape us.’ To change yourself and your destiny’, they say ‘change your mind and your view of life itself changes.’ Is it true that mind is all? What about vital being, the real creator of storms and the real misleader in life?🧠🤔💭🧘
Yes, quite so. The realised beings have gone beyond the sphere of suffering where good and evil, positive and negative are locked in a struggle
Sir, please explain how Darwinian evolution theory is same/ different from the evolution theory of Hinduism.🐒🦧🏃♂️🧬🌱🌳
Darwin focused only on the outer aspect of evolution, that is to say the change of form leading to a new species. He did not
I am more inclined towards Ayurveda against allopathy? Is Ayurveda preferred in our yoga? 🌿🌱🥣🍵
Yes, Ayurveda and Homeopathy or very simply opening to Her Grace are preferable. But one should not be rigid about it since healing is a
Referring SriAurobindo on “The yoga and its objects”, SriAurobindo says. “You must put aside what you want and wish to know what God wants; distrust what your heart, your passions or your habitual opinions prefer to hold as right and necessary, and passing beyond them, like Arjuna in the Gita, seek only to know what God has set down as right and necessary.” How am I to know if my choice of this yoga is God’s wish, He has set it right and necessary or my heart’s passion?🏹🐎 🛞⚖️
All being taken is a big thing. But the Call to this yoga is certainly there, otherwise you wouldn’t have felt anything at all, like
As I read Sri Aurobindo, He emphasizes virtues and scriptural adherence are a way binding, without taking Man further towards liberation. So this question, How can we Catogrise The King SriRama as per Bhagavad Gita? How should His emotions and actions be described as per BG? Sthitapragya!!?? 🛞⚖️☸️🐎
Sri Rama is the Avatar who sets the supreme example of an idealized humanity, what it truly means to be a man, paurusham. Though he
Transformation of nature seems a long journey, but realizations had been achieved in past by many. So why can’t in our yoga we focus more on realization compared to Transformation. If so, will the below method will work or some other method & practices to follow? 🐛✨🦋☀️🍁❄️
It is a question of one’s aspiration. Certainly one can strive for the Divine Realisation which is anyways the first indispensable basis. But there are
You said once in a talk that generally in path of Yoga we are alone .. i mean the detachment has to be there and later in one of the talk you were saying The Mother has told that as partners we can coincide and make our goal one that is to be in the Divine path or attain the Divine.🎈🕊️🪷✨🌊
ut u see once u have that true vision or even the opening for a while even you would agree how things change how our
I wanted to ask you about how should I deal with the resistance, revolt and bad will that rises in me when I try to remember The Mother and surrender to her?🧱🤫🔒⛓️💥
Refuse to listen to the resistance and the revolt and the badwill. Tell these parts that you have nothing to do with them. Separate yourself
The Mother says in a conversation that the Vedic Rishis were involutionary beings, but their bodies came through evolution. These were beings who descended from higher planes and who utilized these bodies. Sri Mother’s Collected Works, page 316 What meaning is being expressed here for Involution and Evolution?⬇️🌌🌀⬆️✨
Yes, it is in the sense of the descent of beings from higher worlds from the mental and spiritual planes into the human world, upon
What do I need to do to live in Ashram? Right now, I don’t have any money. With Mother’s grace, I’ve only recently started working. As for my parents and my first wife, I feel they will never be ready for my Ashram life. My second wife can certainly join me. In this situation, Dada, please point me in the right direction, because I don’t think it will be easy for me to practice yoga here at home. And if I even discuss Ashram life with my family, they will start to oppose it. So, Dada, please give me the right guidance so that I can truly surrender myself to yoga and The Mother.🧘📜🌹🌳
I would advice you to make a visit first, for a week or so. Perhaps sometime in the coming year. Then we can personally meet
