Many people ask me why I don’t enjoy life the way others do. I don’t smoke, drink, party, or dance. Instead, I prefer spending time alone, sitting by the beach🌊 or in the mountains🏔️, and reading the works of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. Some even say, “Why spend your whole day immersed in spirituality? Enjoy life a little!” They tell me I can focus on such things when I’m 60. But is there really an age for this?
People have a very limited idea of enjoyment and even more limited idea of spirituality. Personally I feel the joy of being alone, with oneself

Young people nowadays prefer casual relationships. Even serious relationships outside of marriage have the drawback that the partners are conditioned to be ready to withdraw any moment, undermining the basis of life-long relationships. I, as many people, don’t live in one place — I travel due to my work and studies. In such a context it is hard to be in a serious relationship that would lead to a marriage. The question is: how do people like myself who still have a desire to engage in romantic relationships find their way out of this dilemma😯?
I don’t think there can be a how to it. Love either happens or does not happen. As to the stability of a relationship, physical

I’ve been pondering on the question why you get attracted to certain people as friends. Somebody quoted mother as saying that it is because people recognise each other in the subtle physical. Can you explain this🤔?

In the opening chapter of the human cycle, there’s a passage on how over time prakriti is devalued and became a subject of purusha and in western research there is this observation that with the axial age around 500bc with Buddhism, Jainism and later Plato in Greece etc.. where man felt truth as up there and something above and earthly realm is denigrated and in the 20th century philosophy, literature and culture there was a revolt against this notion and this vitalist affirmation of life here and now happened. So is this phenomenon in a way unconsciously a return of the worship of the mother and her dance in this earthly life cos humanity seemed to have stopped worshipping her in favour of Nirvana/god the father up in the sky above😏
Absolutely. The conception of God who is averse to beauty and rhythm, in general with Nature, a strict and intolerant judge who is quick to

Earlier I was in a relationship and had decided to get married but my parents opposed and also I felt it was not based on anything higher and no joy was there being with that person so I left him. Afterwards when I decide to get married I feel guilt and feel that its not something a noble person would do, that it would be better to remain single. Even if I decide to get married I am scared my mind might change later. But I am not able to remain single also. However there is no obstacle when it comes to having a relationship without marriage. But i am not ready for that too. Many times i felt marriage is not meant for me. I think with some kind of support i will be able to live a single life. How to navigate such a situation? How do i bring about a balance? Or should I try to get married😬?
Guilt is out of place here, if it ever has a place. The nobility or ignobility of an action depends upon the motive and not
