AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

People here are calling me a gossip monger because I happened to have confided into a few people (X & Y) around me about how another person(Z) ‘s behavior made me feel bad at a point of time. I never told that Z is bad but told I felt bad because of Z. I feel there is a difference between the two. I am feeling drained here at my workplace What to do, Alok Da? Kindly tell๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ฅ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ“ข

Anyways, I regret to have confided unto X & Y. I am called to be someone who lacks credibility and integrity, and seemingly everyone have lost trust and respect towards me. They (X, Y) even call me selfish, a masochist and a pushover – for tolerating a certain kind of behavior of disrepect from Z . Though X and Y themselves have conveyed all that I told about Z to Z himself. Also, people take my words and my personality mockingly and give rebukes behind my back.

It is a lesson of life and often a painful lesson that it is best to focus upon one’s progress and never ever to discuss what other’s are doing. The Mother would remind the sadhaks here to mind their own business. Anyways we all learn from our mistakes. Once the lesson is learnt we should get back on the main path of progress leaving behind the old ways and the world. The more you bother about the world the more it will trouble you. Focus instead on aligning oneself to the Divine Will and our true Divine destiny. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

She was referring to a possibility, a possibility that was strong at that moment as well remains a risk for the future. Sri Aurobindo also said that they are very restless and saw the threat of Red China invading India through Tibet. As long as the Communist party …

I have recently started my residency in MS opthalmology. My schedule runs from 7am to 11pm with two 36 hours shifts each week. Throughout the day I am constantly surrounded by seniors and immersed in work and we are not allowed to leave the wards during working hours. I get no time for meditation or reading books of Maa and Sri Aurobindo or even some time to sit in silence.
