AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

To the best of my knowledge, the term “Integral Yoga” was introduced by Sri Aurobindo. How can others use this name? I came across a YouTube channel named “Integral Yoga” and assumed it would be related to Sri Aurobindo, but it turned out to belong to some Swami Satchidananda 😏

It is true that there are at least two organisations or gurus who have used these words integral yoga as well as Divine Life giving them a completely different meaning. One of them even wanted to file a lawsuit for patenting it! When it was pointed out to him that Sri Aurobindo used the term even before he was born, then he simply backed off as far as patenting is concerned. Anyways, to each his own path. Thankfully the Divine is not fooled by claims people make. As to the seekers they eventually reach where they are destined for. 

Affectionstely,

She was underweight according to Australian standards and had a low appetite, so the doctor has suggested iron and multivitamin drops, which she absolutely despises. Initially, I would give them forcefully and we would both end up in tears. 👶🏻🩸😥🙏🏻🌼[…]

First with regard to the value of an action. It is not the action itself but the intent that matters most. Whatever you did was an act of love, with utmost goodwill for your child. That is all that is needed. I am sure this love and goodwill and your prayers all have gone into her improvement and not just the medicines…
