AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

What steps can I take daily to increase my love for Krishna? I do 2 japa a day and some bhajan and read books of Sri Aurobindo and Maa. Apart from that my whole day is a day of indulgences which take me towards darkness. I can never keep habits for long. Do I don’t want to change bad enough that I’m not changing. Regret and lament🫣 is all that I do after hasty decisions

First thing is to cut out regret and lament. That only saps energy and makes us feel increasingly underconfident and eventually give up effort.  

Next is to make Krishna a friend and treat him like a living being. How do you relate with a friend? You share everything with him. When you go out you take him along.  In case you go somewhere you let him know and stay connected.  Offer all your activities and actions to the Mother and Sri Aurobindo wherever you may be going and whatever you may be doing. As for Krishna take him along wherever you go as a bosom friend.  Write a daily diary to the Mother and remember Her first thing in the morning and last thing at night and as often as you can.

You will slowly see the difference. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

The Mother and Sri Aurobindo laughed at the stupidity of religous conversions. They saw Religion as a spent force which is destined to be overpassed by the growing spiritual impulse in man. The upsurge of conversions, whatever its temporary success is destined to fail. The evolving human soul cannot be satisfied for long in any …
