AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

What is the role of Kundalini awakening in the traditional yoga method and Sri Aurobindo’s yoga? I have read in Savitri that when the Kundalini chakra opens, then psycho-spiritual transformation happens. 🪻🌀[…]

Here I have a little doubt, those who have experienced Kundalini awakening, are their beings transformed?

Awakening of the Kundalini does not transform human nature. It only augments certain powers and capacities by opening the inner being to the cosmic consciousness. 

What is described in Savitri is the opening of the centres under the pressure of the psychic being and the descent of the Divine Mother’s Force. Hence, the powers and energies of the centres undergo the psycho-spiritual transformation. The opening of the centres are incidental or a natural consequence of the emergent soul and the pressure of the higher consciousness. 

In traditional Kundalini yoga, there is neither the awakening and discovery of the psychic being nor the descent of the Divine Force into the centres. It is done forcibly by the pressure of human will and certain psycho-physical practices.

So the psychospiritual transformation described in Savitri is not due to the awakening and opening of the Kundalini chakras but due to the soul stepping out and the Divine Force descending into the fields of nature. It is this which leads to the change, as well as and including the awakening of the Kundalini. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da, I have got attached to someone after a physical intimacy (kind of night stands – about 4-5) but he is not. how to handle it. Actually I thought I am in love with him…so I allowed all that to happen…else i happened to be someone who wouldn’t let anyone touch me. What should I do? I am afraid of conveying my feelings to him as I know he is not going to reciprocate. I am just always craving his proximity, which i know is my problem.. How can I be at peace?? I want to detach myself from those feelings i have towards him?

What has happened has happened. It serves no purpose looking back and feeling bad. Life gives several learning lessons. This is one of them and a very precious one. One needs to understand that the way a woman feels and experiences life is very different from the …

Administering medicine to my 1-year-old daughter is a challenge. 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…
