Home » Questions Asked by Children » We have a very strict sir, he scolds us at no reason, he once took my iPad, because it started with a notification😡. When we ask him a very logical question he shouts back at us saying why don’t you understand anything. And when we don’t ask a question he says why are you not involved in the class. In the exam he has given us a topic which he did not teach in class and it was hard. In the mock paper he should have given 35 mins but gave only 15 mins . He also had to check the pt papers within a week but gave in 2 weeks and 1 day. He also scolded us for not doing the homework but that only 4 people did not do out of 24 so why are the rest have to be scolded. What should we do?

You should learn from him how one should not behave as a grown up. And since you cannot change the teacher use it as an opportunity to remain unaffected and indifferent to things you do not like. That is a great power and this is a great opportunity to learn this lesson of bearing things without reacting with anger or frustration when things don’t go our way.

Affectionately,

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🙂.

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…
