AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sri Aurobindo says that the thought comes from outside. If so, one does not perceive in the same way for any given situation. Why is it so🤔? Does each person’s gunas decides. How to differentiate the thought from divine or self?

What is meant by thought in the spiritual parlance is a vibration of light that originates in the Light of the Divine and the descends through several layers where it gets clothed in varying degrees of ignorance. As it enters the human mind it assumes the covering and colouring of our ignorant mind and wears the costume of language and speech to which one is attuned to and conditioned.

Our state of consciousness acts like a trigger to open the channel of Thought vibrations attracting the corresponding level of thought much like a remote displays the program on the TV that it chooses. Once it enters the brain it automatically picks up the dress of language, again just as one can by changing the channel watch the same program in a regional or national language. Important thing is the state of our consciousness and the level to which we open either through habit or conscious aspiration, meditation and concentration. The rest is automatic like the selection of the language and the nature of the program.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

The Life Divine, Chapter IV: The Divine and the Undivine, Page 396, last line: “the concealed Divinity, that has lit the flame of aspiration, pictures the image of the ideal, keeps alive our discontent and pushes us to throw off the disguise and to reveal or, in the Vedic phrase, to form and disclose the Godhead in the manifest spirit, mind, life and body of this terrestrial creature.” – what is the Vedic phrase, its essence? 😊🙏🏻🌻

In our human consciousness there is the image of an ideal truth of being, a divine nature, an incipient godhead: in relation to that higher truth our present state of imperfection can be relatively described as an undivine life and the conditions of the world from which we start as undivine conditions; the imperfections are the indication

Why is it that many parents, especially those in their 50s, often glorify their past struggles, like working long hours to earn an extra $200, and keep reminding their children of the sacrifices they made to raise them? Why can’t they allow their children to recognize it naturally, instead of constantly seeking acknowledgment or credit and glorifying their struggles? 🙄🌻👨🏻‍👩🏻‍👧🏻‍👦🏻

Bringing up a child can be a very challenging task and sometimes it does require quite a bit of sacrifice. But the child has not seen or known this as all this often happens backstage behind the scenes…
