AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Please explain Sri yantra. Few say that it is the geometrical depiction of all aspects within the universe created out of the union of Shiva & Shakti (Bindu) and thus is the true representation of the Adi Parashakti – Dynamic Aspect of the Divine🤔.

Sri Yantra is a symbol depicting the perfect harmony and unity of the three higher three lower worlds leading to a blossoming of creation towards fullness and eventually perfection. The fullness (circles) is indicated but the perfection (square open on all four sides to infinity) is hinted. It is indeed a most powerful tantric representation of the World Mother who joins the creation with the Creator. However we must not forget that no symbol or pattern can bind the Supreme Goddess who manifests only by Her own will, if She so Wills, and is not subject to any vidhi or upasana. These are at best aids, sometimes a powerful aid, but unsupported by corresponding inner movements they remain like an invalid ticket whose secret unlocking code is not in the geomatric design but in the soul of the sadhak. The Bindu is the individual soul which is the meeting point for the union of Purusha and Prakriti. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Referring your quote from Sri Aurobindo in your answer “The ideal is not allowed to mould the whole life, but only more or less to colour it; it is often used even as a cover and a plea for things that are diametrically opposed to its real spirit. Can you give an example , where  “The Ideal is used  as a cover and a plea for diametrically opposed to its real spirit”🪷☀️✨✍️📜🌌

You can see it all over the world. Almost all religious institutions, exceptions apart, pay only a lip service to God. The priests and the adherents hardly try to change their life by the teachings. There are number of followers but hardly anyone tries to understand, let alone follow. Christianity died with Christ on the Cross and Islam was killed …
