AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Opening to the Mother

This question is connected to my own sincerity. I find myself in situations where I have to compromise my sincerity and integrity and speak lies for the sake of maintaining my relationships with my friends. I can’t break the relations. But it becomes very hard and extremely difficult for me to be in a situation that needs sincerity and integrity both for me and my friends. 🥀😥❤️‍🩹🫂[…]

Sincerity is a most rare and difficult quality to acquire. Besides it is in relation to the Divine that we must grow sincere. What you

Dear Alok Da, I write with deep respect to navigate a personal dilemma as I seek to purify my bhakti in the flames of knowledge rather than rely on borrowed piety. While I fully embrace Sri Aurobindo’s vision, I struggle with praying to the Divine in human form when subtler, transcendent dimensions of that same reality exist, and I find opening to The Mother through mental instruction or tradition challenging from a distance. 😥🙏🏻🌼🍂[…]

There is nothing disrespectful about what you write. There are many seekers who start this way. The Mother herself has confirmed that generally seekers turn

When working in a collective space on Integral Education, what should be one’s attitude towards work? If a few people are aligned to work with an attitude to be more open and receptive to the Mother’s force while others are not ready to do so or to follow any daily practice to be connected internally to the Mother – how can harmony get established? 🙄🙏🏻🪷🍂[…]

The thumb rule of working in any collective space is to stay focused upon one’s own inner connection with The Mother, deepening it more and

Sir, why in Sadness and in Grief, we seem to be more Open to the Divine Mother?

Grief is a state of intense concentration and can, if the consciousness makes just a little shift open the doors the Divine. As the Mother

Alok da, when one has an Aspiration for Spiritual Rebirth in Life, along with old patterns, and it also feels like Memory is one other thing that torments me in trying not to let me have an Absolute Fresh Beginning because it brings with it so many emotions, fears, desires, hopes and whatnot and makes me cling to the current of old life. 🪦😣🙏🏻❤️‍🔥🌷[…]

Aspiration is itself the sign of a spiritual new birth. What you are referring to is the pull of old nature which is felt by

I was listening to the podcast on Psychic, Spiritual and Supramental Education. I wanted to clarify something. To make sure that we do not end up liberating ourselves (Spiritual Education), is there any effort we need to put in from our end to work towards transforming the world (Supramental Education), other than opening ourselves gradually to the Mother?💭😇🌈

If one opens to the Mother with complete trust and dependence, then all else is taken care of since She will release your deepest and
