The Peace and Quietude within me is increasing day by day but Iām having to protect it like a precious flame. When I work itās fine, mixing with others is fine (in small doses), and all the other outer movements Iām finding ok. However, at certain points I become quite externalised and then feel a tremendous pain coming out of touch with this inner quietude and then I have to sit and concentrate to regain it. It comes back quicker each time is what Iāve noticed, but is it ok to avoid certain people, situations, interactions if it causes me to become so externalised š¤Ø? I donāt want to be ascetic but then I also donāt feel like frankly that Iām at the point where I can just do whatever and not lose that inner peace and joy from Mother.

I had a dream of which I canāt fully understand the message. I dreamt Iām in my room which is well lit but due to some work going on there are some boxes piled up on my bed. The floors are bare and the room is bare. I think that I will have to sleep in my motherās room in that case. I enter my motherās room and see that it is semi dark. I can see the bed but itās not a well lit room. I tell my mother I have to sleep in her room. Somehow a light catches my eye and falls on something above the bed. I canāt tell at first what it is but with more light it illuminates an alligator in silhouette above the bed. So the alligator is dark and I canāt see any details and it seems to be waiting for me. At this point I wake upš¤Ø
The new well lit room are portions of your being touched by the higher Light. It is however yet to be organised for you to

I had a dream. I was in a weird tunnel of whitish light like a river šand was underground in sort of a tunnel but I was not human but a ray of smth and I couldn’t be distinguished from the flow of that whitish river and there was another person in the form of me with me swimming ahead of me and I could communicate with the man without talking and I was going or more like swimming through that light and then a ball of light comes through an Opening from above the tunnel and turns into lady who is warning about the dangers ahead and that there will be rain of fire from all sides but I look at the man in front of me and go undettered swimming. That lady keeps the warning and stays there while I move ahead

Those who try to escape every problemāwhether in work or relationshipsāby constantly jumping from one thing to another, or by using money as a shield, by constantly changing relationship, often justify their actions with the phrase, āIām just being practical.ā But is being practical always the right approach, especially when it comes to emotionsš¤Ø?

What is infrarational in Sri Aurobindo’s terminology? In our today’s society, what are the infrarational elements? The new-age movement seems to have absorbed some spiritual intuitions but their expression is distorted. Are these infrarational in some wayš¤? What’s the best solution to develop in the upward route from an infrarational position? I work in a scientific research background and a lot of confusions arise from within science itself and how most scientists/researchers explore the reality. The scientific method itself seems to have been diluted and an approval of masses are enough to establish the status quo. It’s not the same everywhere, but it is hard to fight this tendency in the current times.
Infrarational is primarily the vital animal, the physical and sense driven as well as the entire subconscious life of man. It also includes those elements
