AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Third question, you are going to laugh at, I did! I listen to old Hindi songs when I am cooking/cleaning, old habit. But a song came on from Hathi Mere Sathi 🐘 that Rajesh Khanna sings after K N Singh, kills his elephant Ramu, Nafarat Ki Dunia Ko Chodke Pyar Ki Dunia Me Khush Raho Mere Yar. This was movie, but in real life what would happen to that elephant’s soul?

Most animals do not have a crystallized individual soul. They are generally governed by the soul of the species. That is why they rarely have distinct individuality.

However this particular elephant may have acquired an individual spark having been in close contact with the human. If so its soul will leap through certain other animal births and take a first human body, starting its journey in a human form.

At that point in evolution, was that elephant’s soul evolved enough to decide that this is what I want to learn/gain in this lifetime? or is someone else making these decisions at that stage?

No at this stage there is no individual soul and even after that it takes a few or number of human births before it can make such a choice.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

We recently brought a Shivling from my in-law’s place as they are not able to take proper care of it. My in-laws used to worship it with elaborate rituals. We have also been advised to follow it. To be honest, I don’t have much faith in their long rituals which were advised by our family priest. To me a simple ritual with faith & devotion is what is actually needed in worship🤨.

I understand your situation and have experienced this with other families as well. Ritual involves a,material and a spiritual aspect. The material side is to give bath (wash) the Shivalingam daily and keep it in a …

Dear Alok da I am a woman so it’s very easy to look at Divine as a lover… but how can a man relate to Divine like a lover ? Like when Sri Aurobindo writes the poem on Krishna I can relate feel Krishna in that form but what about a man? This was just silly curious question but thought to ask🙂.

This is something that i struggled with for a while as to how could I see the Beloved in the Mother or bring before Her all my different parts for the needed change and transformation. Soon I realised that it …

Last night, I had a dream where I saw that my father and I were getting a tubewell installed, and at the end, when we inserted the pipe, a lot of water came out and it was sparkling. Then, Grandpa came and asked why we had the tubewell installed, saying that the water is salty. When we drank it, the taste was a bit salty, so I said at least the water would be useful. Later, I saw that my brother and I were checking the car’s headlight, but it didn’t light up. So, I said, doesn’t the light work? What’s the problem? He said it’s fine, and when I turned it on, the light was very dim. Then, we removed the mirror from the headlight and saw that it was giving off very little light. What could be the symbolic meaning of this dream🤔?

I don’t think it has any deeper symbolic meaning. Looks more like a dip into the subconscient where the water is not tasty and the lights are dim. But it could also be…
