AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Sir, I think you missed to explain 🙄last part of the sentence (but still it has a real power and significance) yesterday.

Yes, even a crudely formulated childish prayer has in it a real power. This power of the prayer lies in the bhaava, the inner state from which it emerges. Its significance lies in the fact that it brings us in contact with the Divine. It is like reaching the river or the sea. Whether a person came with dirt upon his body or all neat and clean, the river still would cleanse. So too even a crudely formulated prayer can bring us in contact with the Divine which will eventually have a cleansing effect upon us.

Follow up of previous question

Kindly explain the sentence on Prayers, in the book📖 – The Synthesis of Yoga. “Its forms are very often crude and not only childlike, which is in itself no defect, but childish; but still it has a real power and significance.”

Before coming to the Mother, I used to give my everything to my friends around me even at the expense of myself. However, I always have given my all to these friends, and yet when I needed them most, the majority were not there for me. The girl I considered my best friend literally does nothing for me, even on my birthday. For a while I thought that it was because she just didn’t know how to express but yet she does so much for my other friends. So clearly she can but she doesn’t want to for me. This broke my heart. I know expectations spoil love, and I need to purify it, but it’s still hurtful to see. Now some new friends are slowly coming into my life, but my closest friends in the past are those whom have hurt me quite hard a few times and now I just don’t even see the point in making new friends. For me, Mother, Sri Aurobindo and my sister give me all the friendship I need. But even in the Ashram, there were beautiful friendships. But now 😔

The urge to be alone, the dropping off of old friends, the inner distancing from old ties, the new preferences indicating progress in different dimensions of our being, the distaste for the old ways such as weddings, parties, family get-togethers are all very good sign of the emerging spiritual life. This budding …

Many times I feel a burden with my relationship with my sibling, though he is an middle aged adult, my parents treat him like a child and they expect me to do so, our relationship is one sided one as I can hardly can rely on him, where else everything I am expected to do for him. Here I am not complaining as I don’t feel it’s right to constantly protect and spoil someone like a baby when I do not do that same things for my own children🙄, how can I manage this as all this hinders in my work and my purpose of life?

Relationships need to be nurtured from both the sides, otherwise it is not a relationship but a sacrifice.  And sacrifice of this kind, done out of blind attachment does no good to either the giver or the receiver. It increases obscurity in both as it is tamasic in nature, sapping out the…
