Love

Iโ€™ve been trying to develop a healthy outlook on the dynamics of man-woman relationships in the midst of a lot of mutually contradictory advice from parents, friends, and other parties. As of late, I started to investigate the old and still popular idea of the man being the dominant side of the relationship, with the woman submitting to his will and being obedient to him.

The idea of male dominance is outdated and outrightly childish. Men and women are and should be equal partners. In fact if one is to

My Guruโ€™s wife (Guruma) is still in this world. In the practice of Siddha Yoga worship, Gurudev has always been foremost, and during his lifetime, he never openly spoke about Guruma. I donโ€™t know why, but Iโ€™ve always felt a deep love for Radha Ma, and I would get emotional and cry. I kept having visions of Guruma as well. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐ŸŒธ[…]

The true basis of relationship between the Guru and the disciplle is the seeking for Truth or Wisdom and Light. This seeking formulates itself in

I genuinely love a guy (or at least I feel that way), but we are not in a relationship because we know that we are not perfect for each other. We live in different places, so we don’t meet. There were times when we had an argument and we stopped talking for months, but we ended up together. ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿฆ‹[…]

There is evidently a vital attraction which is very different from love. It usually wears off with time unless there is a strong deep affinity

Hello Alok da, what are your views on the young students of India demanding accountability from the ruling government and being brutally oppressed and crushed by the police of this country? What are your thoughts on the incompetent, corrupt and ego-filled politicians of modern India who are not at all caring for the people of this country? ๐Ÿ˜ฃ๐Ÿชง๐Ÿ‘ฅ๐Ÿชง๐Ÿ‚

As a starter it is harmful to involve students in politics. It is as good as destroying their future. But almost all the political parties

I am facing depression and a lot of anxiety attacks. No matter how much I pray to the Lord and the Mother, I still cannot overcome it. I tried to analyse myself in my free time and observed that, in any relationship, I am more of a giver than a receiver. ๐Ÿ˜ฃ๐Ÿซด๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŒธ[…]

First thing is not to analyse oneself in an effort to understand the reason for one’s depression. The mind, especially when in a state of

To look for your videos on Love, which are on the YouTube Channel ‘Auromaa’, whenever I feel my love(may be attachment), whatever it is, is turning towards blame, criticism.. To not feel that I have been betrayed, to feel that the other side must have reasons for doing what he is doing, and when I see videos on Love, Sacrifice, Self-Giving, I feel a little relieved for some time… ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐ŸŒผ[…]

But there always is true love in everybody. But it is covered by the smoke of desires, clouds of doubt and the curtains of ignorance

I was listening to your recent conversation on Social Media. While discussing about body positivity, you’ve so aptly brought out the counterfactual of what if the female lead with whom the male protagonist is romanticizing happened to be ‘visually not fair and pretty’- which actually has been what I too used to think. ๐Ÿซ‚โค๏ธโœจ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ‘จ[…]

Yes love, like most things in our life is fed by certain stereotypes and social constructs. Hence it suffers deformation and distortion like everything else.
