AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Regarding the process of reading the original texts of Sri Aurobindo, like The Life Divine or The Synthesis of Yoga and others,ย generally, I follow the following process:ย 1] First, I read the paragraph loudly, in a lower volume, and finish the paragraph. 2] Then I go through it silently, only lip-syncing, and try to follow and understand.ย Am I following the right process? Please provide some guidance.ย ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿชทย ย 

Yes, it is a wonderful way. Additionally, you can write some of the passages that touch you deeply.

Affectionately,
