A so called prestigious university from USA came up with a survey that 60% of Krishna does not exist based on historical and archaeological evidence, what should be tell such morons? And how to shut them up😡?
The Western world today is sunk deep into scientific materialism and hence it regards only these things as true that can be seen, heard, touched,
Alok Da, Please provide a solution to a problem. Sri Aurobindo says that the soul of a nation is not subject to the law of Karma. It would be a great kindness if you could guide us about this. In fact, we see that what imperialist Britain did, it is now having to suffer the consequences. There will be other examples as well. Is India also grappling with the problems it faces today due to its own actions, its own Karma🤨?
The law of karma is a law of evolution through experience and learning rather than of reward and punishment. This happens ordinarily through rebirth because
What is the cure of sufferings😪?

Alok da, I had a bad dream that I got injured very badly by needles all over😧.
The needles are simply small little things that irritate us. By remaining indifferent towards them, by not reacting to what people say you can become
Alok da, I’ve noticed lately that people around me are so focused on themselves—constantly talking about what they like, how good or sensible they are, and endlessly bragging about themselves. They don’t even bother to ask about your life, and if they do, it’s only for a moment before they steer the conversation back to themselves. They seem to care about no one but themselves. What’s happening to human interactions these days🙄?
Well much of humanity has always been like this, self-centered around their little self and its meaningless achievements. It is best not to bother about
Is daily journaling (to the Divine) a spiritually helpful activity? Does it help us in establishing a conscious contact with the Divine and change our nature in some way📖🖋️?

Do affirmations like “I am love, I am kind, I am grateful” help in personal growth🤔?

What does it mean when someone in real life who is very moderately tall appears a bit tall in a dream😴?
It means one is seeing that person in the vital world.
Sri Aurobindo writes about Mahalakshmi as embodying harmony and beauty in thoughts, feelings, actions, and outward movements. However, most of us know Mahalakshmi or lakshmi only as the goddess of wealth and seek her blessings primarily for financial gains. If our desire is solely for wealth, to whom should we pray🙏? And is she not related to money?
Mahalakshmi is related primarily to inner wealth. Now when we try to cultivate beauty and harmony within and around with people and forces and the
How can one discover their inner truth or true purpose🤔?

Could you provide us details about the ongoing Kumbh, including its history, story, and spiritual significance?, its importance for India and Indians. If possible, I would also request a talk on this topic🙏

How should I handle it, if friend seems to show off their materialistic achievements, like buying the latest phone, a house, a car, and affording branded clothes and shoes, while taking great pride in emphasizing that their hard work is finally paying off because they can now afford these things. Whenever I talk to them, I feel a sense of competition🤨, as if I need to earn more and more, and it seems like they take satisfaction in knowing that I earn less than them.
You should simply laugh it off. It is the sign that they have not outgrown the child stage where one displays one’s toys. It also
Dear Alok da, since it’s festival time the atmosphere is full of vital energies and all day I have to meet people and socialise, the days I don’t meet many and in my routine I can concentrate and so my dreams too are clear and symbolic but these days due to the situation all is spoil and dreams are of subconscious chaos, past memories or I don’t remember, so can you advise what to do? Though since more than a month every nite as I sleep off Mother’s Savitri commentaries with Sunil da’s music is on only but other than that what can I do🤔?
Yes, socialization is almost like a disease that is difficult to get out of the system once it settles as a default program of life.
Why did Yudhishthira gamble everything? Why did Sri Krishna, who was physically present as an Avatar, allow him to do that? How can he be considered the paragon of Dharma? I just cannot understand how a man like Yudhishthira could put everything, including his wife, on the gambling table🙄?
Yudhishthira’s situation shows that even a man of virtues can make errors and mistakes. Great individuals can commit great errors. Yudhishthira made a significant mistake
“If a man dies suddenly in a state of passion with numerous attachments, different parts of their being are dispersed and live for a shorter or longer time their own life in their own domain” this is a quote from mother 12th February 1958. Is this what ghosts are? If not what are ghosts👻 then?
Yes, ghosts are generally disembodied vital entities thrown in the atmosphere after death.
How to get rid of regrets of an action😨?
By understanding that life does not, in fact has never followed a rule book of the mind. The mind, especially reason must develop discernment and
