AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

What is the difference between realising one’s psychic being🌟 and realising one’s soul? Both are immortal in essence, both are a portion of the Supreme and both give us liberation from our surface nature. Of course, while the Atman is a static entity and psychic being evolutionary, I was still wondering where exactly is the difference between these two realisations?

The soul is the seed,  the core around which the psychic being develops through an evolutionary process. In essence they are one and the same.  To realise the psychic being is to realise the soul. But there is the individual central being that is beyond Time and Space. Realising the central being follows a little later and when that happens one becomes conscious of one’s work upon earth.  The Self or the Atman is the same for all. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Dada, there is a professor at IISC who is a sadhaka in the sampradaya of Madhvacharya, and he says that, according to him, the way to find your Swadharma is to do what you can persistently despite failure. I want to ask, is this a good way of practically knowing, or is it too reductionist? And according to you, what can be the best practical way for a young child?🧒📚✨🌱

That is one way of looking at it. But a slightly negative and outer way of looking at it. There are plenty of things we do which do not involve success or failure. We do it because we find a natural joy in it. This spontaneous joy …

Is drinking small quantities of alcohol really that bad? Most people I know consume alcohol in some measure. I noticed that the ones who quit it completely face backlash from Society. For example, I heard business people say that you can’t trust a person who doesn’t drink. 🥂💬🍸🎶[…]

It is not a question of good or bad from a moral point of view. But drinking alcohol is certainly harmful for the physical, as well as psychological and I would even say spiritual health. The list of physical problems is too long and generally too well known to elucidate. …

Yesterday suddenly realised during my prayer with my mother that the seat of the Psychic Being is Highar Vital, in the Hridaya Chakra. Initially, I feel Peace, Bliss and Delight up to the Vishudhi Centre. Suddenly realised that my heart has received The Mother’s Peace and is spreading to all the centre of my all the inner parts and similar to the mother light also. Suddenly feel that the heart centre is doing everything. Alok da, is our Sadhana going in the right direction? Please guide me. 🪷✨💖🕯️

Yes absolutely, the psychic being is behind the heart centre and when open and in the front then all becomes easy and natural. 
Your prayer is a beautiful psychic prayer and the yoga going in the right direction.
