AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sometimes I feel a peace in my lower abdominal part, but it is not everlasting for a long time. Due to this reason, the central pressure of my heart also does not stay permanently, which gives peace, wideness, bhakti and the feeling of fearlessness. Why is this happening? โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿชท[…]

Is there any process of this yoga? But now, when difficulties arise, I smile in every situation. Every time I recite “All this belongs to the Mother”, in this recitation I feel a strong obstacle arising, but don’t affect the peace in the heart. Many types of difficulties come, but something in my sense feels that if the difficulties come, then they must be offered to the mother so that they will be solved. Is my experience right? How to totally get rid of these difficulties?

Difficulties are part of the journey and the work of the Yoga of transformation.ย  It is a long process and one has to go through it. Otherwise, one can stay content with the psychic experiences as in the old traditional yogas. There is no why to it. It is nature and either we accept it as it is or try to change it. Changing it puts pressure over it and hence it reacts. The change comes slowly through the action of the Mother’s Force in the different parts. One has to go through the process with faith and endurance.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Alok da, how much is the body linked to the development of the Will? Do those people in professions which involve a thorough exertion of their hands and limbs in tune with the head (like craftsmen, painters, musicians, dancers, military men, chefs, and even agricultural labourers) have a scope for much development of the Will over those who don’t and are much more in the head(like software engineers, bankers, and students who spend hours in front of dense books reading)? ๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿปโ€๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿปโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผ๐Ÿ‘ฎ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿชท[…]

Those who work with hands or eye or mouth (speech) or brain develop more consciousness in those organs. It is not just the external instruments that develop by use but even more so, the consciousness in these organs that develops.ย 

Similarly with the will. It develops if we exercise it. When we do not give up something, be it an effort to understand, or to work with the hands or simply make an effort to be regular and punctual builds the will. One…

Meditation is not meant for all. Besides it is the difficult path. The better, easier and swifter path is discernment, bhakti and works as Sri Krishna himself advocates. Sri Aurobindo and The Mother speak mainly of Aspiration, opening to the Divine, inner remembrance and offering leading to surrender. In fact these methods give quicker …

It means that we often carry within us the opposite of what we are meant to realise. We all carry in us a divine possibility. But to bring it out we are provided within us the challenge, the opposition to the possibility that we must conquer. Take for instance someone meant to realise true love will find in his life surrounded by some of the ..
