The Ashram is primarily meant for a higher spiritual evolution. There are no kriyas etc that are taught to overcome these problems. What is adviced is a change of attitudes, opening to the Mother, calling Her Name and practice of aspiration, rejection and surrender. This is the daily sadhana of all who are turned to Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.
I had one question the in one of her books I read she said the more lonely you are ,the more closer you are to the divine. But for the past few months loneliness is freaking me out , increasing my heartbeat rapidly.
Also in that book yoga- aims and difficulties she said that you must make good use to cut off all attachments and think that mother and sri aurobindo are your only caretakers and no more brother, sisters, mother and father. Sir how do I live a life of purpose, gratitude, devotion and surrender..
It is again a question of taking this attitude. It is like this. We have a limited energy and a limited time. We can waste it thinking about ourselves, our outer conditions, situations and circumstances, lamenting and complaining over them. It doesn’t help, rather it makes things worse. Or else instead of investing this on transient things we can direct our energies, thoughts, feelings etc towards the Permanent, the Divine. There is no how to do these things. It is a question of faith and will. We tend to grow into the likeness of what we love and think about. By thinking about the Divine we tend to grow in His likeness whereas by turning our thoughts constantly around ourself driven by anxieties and fears we go further down towards darkness and depression. Surrender, purpose, gratitude, devotion all these grow by taking the Divine Name, by spending time in the company of the Divine through books, through prayers, through meditation upon Him, through the Divine Service, by practicing what is taught. There are no short cuts to it. A patient perseverance in any direction brings results.
Affectionately,
Alok Da
