AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sir, I have tried to find an action that is free from its results, but I could not find any action that is free from results. Is there any action that is free from results🤔?

There is obviously no action that is without consequence. Even inaction and refusal to act has its outer as well as inner consequences.  However the same action has different inner consequences based on our inner attitude and motive. That is the teaching of the Gita. Action done unconsciously in tamasic indifference makes our consciousness dull and obscure. Action done under the stress of desire and rajasic ambition brings joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain as consequence. Action done in a sattwic state considering the right time and place brings peace and light. But the same action done without desire for fruits and as an offering to the Divine brings inner spiritual freedom and growth of the soul. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Dear Alok da, I would like to know more about Dutta, who was Mother’s companion from Britain. Are there any books that write about her? Or can you tell me something about her? What did she represent? 💫❤️‍🔥

The name Dutta was given to her by Sri Aurobindo meaning ‘Offered one’. 

She is indeed the one who was the first one to exclaim on the Siddhi day ‘The Lord has conquered death’ which…

Today, my parents were listening to a very popular Shiva Mahapuran Kathavachak. During the Katha, he mentioned that Lord Shiva is superior to Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma. The reason he gave was related to the position of their respective Shaktis. 🙏🏻🪷[…]

This is even factually incorrect. Saraswati has been revered and worshipped since the Vedic Age. At that point she is not regarded as a consort of Brahma but as the goddess of Vak, the Word of creation. There is no Brahma but Brahmanaspati, or Brahaspati in the Vedic Age. Later Puranic legend shows Saraswati brought out from Brahma but it is she …

Namaste Alok Da. I want to learn about the Typal Beings. What are they, and when did the typal beings appear in the Involution or Creation process? Were they created after the 4 fallen Emanations (Consciousness or Light; Life; Love or Beatitude; and Truth), as the 4 Emanations fell, as the Mother took the plunge; or after creation and during the evolutionary process? 🌌⚔️✨🙏[…]

The typal beings are not evolutionary. They are fixed to type. The gods, the titans, the beings of the mid-worlds are all typal beings. 

Creation began with the first four emanations (Sat-Chit-Tapas-Ananda). These are the four original aspects of the Divine. Each being an aspect of the Divine acted in complete freedom sharing the absoluteness of the Divine. But this very sense of absolute freedom led to their being ‘apparently separated’ from the Divine Origin. There could never be any real separation. But each perceived the sense of absolute power as if independent of the Origin…
