AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Home » Dreams » Recently, I had a dream 😴 There was a very clean beautiful, big, old temple (Indian style) where some humans were staying, taking care of the temple. Suddenly, one day, tall, dark, strong people from far away lands came, fought to conquer the temple. They were hugely strong, slender, tall with pitch black skin carrying maces with thorns (all black). They were the most uniformly colored people I have seen ever, uniform black throughout the body. To me, they looked like well-looking, well-built rakshashas. A fight was scheduled, and the caretakers didn’t seem to mind much. They were willing to fight but they were not matched with the black people. The black people were all sitting on the trees around the temple and the leader was explaining their terms to the caretaker leader. While the fight was being prepared, I managed to divert their daughter of the caretakers and secretly took her away in a bus without anyone knowing, maybe the mother came with us too. I was more like a power telling her what to do, I was not physically on the scene. The daughter was crying but escaped. It seemed like the black people were arguing to get the daughter from the family if the conquering of the temple were to be successful. That’s the reason why I told the daughter to escape, however I didn’t have power to protect the temple. It seemed like this dream was happening in my physical body. Does this mean some health issues?

This is an amazing archetypal dream with very clear symbolic meaning. The temple is your heart, the caretakers are the positive godlike energies and forces. The tall, dark beings who are planning to attack are the negative rakshasic, adverse forces that want to take away the daughter of the priest. The daughter who is apparently important for the conquest to materialise is your developing psychic being that is helped by the Mother to escape from the attack of the adverse forces. The dream does not explicitly indicate what impact this inner event may have, if at all. In all likelihood the attack will not happen. But it does mean that you are marked out for some work of the Mother and for the spiritual life. It is important therefore to focus on strengthening the psychic being through reading and contemplating on the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. Keep Her always in your heart and call Her Name as often as you can. I think the proposed attack was not on your body but on your inner life. May Her Grace surround your life.

Affectionately,

My parents both have contracted viral swine flu. They are both very old: 74, 82. I am in the US, and they are in India. At this age, I feel guilty about not being there to take care of them. At this age, they have gotten a bit more obstinate than usual and it’s tough to negotiate with them on the phone. 👵👴🌸🙏 […]

It is not uncommon that children move to far and distant places for better financial and professional prospects. It is part of the general social mobility and I am sure your parents would understand if someone close in the family tried to explain. To leave the work and …

There is a concept of ‘Supreme Self’ which is associated with divine personalities. Can the Mother, with her numerous powers and the role she has taken up on earth for all of us, be included as a Supreme Self? 🌸⚡✨🙏

She is not only the Supreme Self but even more so the Consciousness and Power of the Supreme Self. Without Her the Supreme Self would not know Itself as the Supreme. Without Her the Supreme Self will remain unmanifest as the Being of Sacchidananda. Here is what Sri Aurobindo reveals to us in The Mother about the ..

Whenever I turn my attention inward or close my eyes, a very gentle current begins to descend—what is this? Secondly, during meditation, my consciousness follows wherever this current moves, and at times it spontaneously draws me deep into the heart. 💗🌊🧘🙏[…]

This soft flow is the psychic feeling. It originates from the depth of the heart and flows towards the rest of your nature.

During concentration it is better to go deeper towards the source of this soft current in the depths of the heart. It will lead you to your soul.
