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? ❤️‍🔥😊🙏🏻🪷[…]

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.  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

Dear Alok Ji, can you please tell me how I can get rid of my anger at Sri Aurobindo and also how to regain trust in him? 🙏🏻💗

Trust is a very precious, priceless gift. Even among human beings it is special. But when it is towards the Divine then it should be doubly carefully guarded.  

Again anger is an extremely harmful emotion towards anyone. It hurts and harms both, the one who harbours it and the one towards whom it is directed. But since one cannot harm or hurt the Divine Beings, it falls back upon oneself creating a terrible karma. By all means desist it. It is the straight road to fall…

At one end, aspiration for the Divine and to unite with Him and to have a change of consciousness; to do The Mother’s work; at the other end, need for a proper awareness in the very ordinary and externalised human nature about the deep meaning and implication of what is happening in life and also what the Divine Destiny is. 🌱🙏🏻[…]

It is much better to catch the knot of life at the other end from where it all begins. The riddle of life cannot be understood on the surface. Focus on the one thing needful, the Divine, and all the rest will begin to fall in its place. This has been the experience of all who have gone on the path.

I am reading the Synthesis of Yoga and Sri Aurobindo is speaking about the union having a threefold character (pg. 131). I wanted to understand whether this is a skilful parallel to draw: a union by identity = Atman = Brahman 📖🌟🙏🏻 […]

Here is the passage from the Synthesis of Yoga to which you are referring.

‘That which is thus made manifest to our vision and experience, and the union has a threefold character. There is a union in spiritual essence, by identity; there is a union by the indwelling of our soul in this highest Being and Consciousness; there is a
