AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

The other night I had a dream that my younger sibling -sister was dying 😱 and she said she did not want to die but her state was such that I told her it’s time to go, I got up heavy feelings, What does this mean?

Often names give us the clue or else the nature of our relationship with the person. Or the state of consciousness this person represented to you. In other words what that person means to us in terms of the intrinsic value. It is the part in you that corresponds and responds to the person who is dying is leaving you. And something in you wants to let it go but yet with a heavy heart perhaps.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

The Divine is not there to fulfil our ignorant desires. Why push and force our ignorant will on God, who knows much better than us as to what is really good for our lives. While I understand the desire for motherhood in a woman, yet that cannot be made the goal and centre of our life.

What if the desire to hold on — the attachment — isn’t rooted in pride or the need to show ownership, but rather in a deep sense of care? A quiet protectiveness, born not from materialism, but from love. What if it’s not about clinging to possessions, but about holding close the people who matter most — not out of selfishness, but from the fear of loss?🤔🌼✨[…]

Yes, attachment and care are not necessarily a negative movement. They are indeed a form of Sattwic love which is certainly higher than the gross rajasic pride and attachment that wants things and people only for one’s …
