AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

There is a saying in the words of many saints that the human birth is attained after going through 8.4 million other animal births. Is there divine truth in this? And my second question is, after attaining human birth, can a person fall back into the animal kingdom? If so, what could be the reasons that lead to this downward journey🤔?

I think this has been answered earlier.  Both Science and Vedantuc Scriptures tell us that man is presently, so far at least, the last product of a long evolution through many forms that proceded it. But human evolution itself is through number of lives beginning from the crude type of humanity closer to the animal kind right upto the highest evolved so far as the saint and the seer. It is quite possibly that in early stages when the consciousness is just emerging out of the human and though in a human form the actions are more like an animal or rakshasa that it may, for a while revert back to the animal life for a while and pick up the human body and the human momentum again.  But this would be quite rare.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

और मेरा दूसरा प्रश्न यह है की मनुष्य जन्म मिलने के बाद क्या मनुष्य वापस पशु योनि में जा सकता है और अगर वापस पशु योनि में जाता है तो उसके क्या कारण हो सकते है जो उसकी यात्रा को वापस नीचे की ओर ले जाते है ?

It means that it is better to live according to your own inmost impulsion of truth, even if it brings outer failure, than to achieve success by following a way of life that is not in tune with your own inmost truth, even if it brings success. ..

I am unable to understand this said by The Mother. Please explain to me: “You must use everything for the purpose for which it is given, otherwise you commit a crime. I am not speaking merely of physical things. All the inner things that I am giving you all the time, all the strength, light, energy and life that are being poured into you all the time, are meant for the service of the Divine, for the sake of transforming you. If you use them for any other purpose, you are a robber and your crime is the worst possible.” ~ The Mother (CWM 13:183)

It means that all the capacities that we have, – physical, vital, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, should be offered at the Feet of the Divine for His Work and Service. Most of the time however we take these capacities to be …
