AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Why do we need Shiva 🌙 (Godhead) & Shakti (Energy) both to explain the creation? Why can’t it be done only through the concept of Shakti (Energy)?

Creation implies a dynamic process. That is Shakti. In the western world the term is nature. It is true that in itself Shakti explains everything.  

The unsolved question would then be on what stable basis or ground of existence is this enormous dance taking place? The stable ground then provides the basis, the foundation, to steady the feet of Shakti else everything becomes too chaotic and falls apart. It is like the canvas on which the cosmic painting is taking place. Shiva provides the stable ground on which the dynamic dance of Kali (the power that drives Kala or Time) is taking place. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

All I see in these questions, asked by everyone, including both the right wing and the left wing, is that they are driven by ego, self-righteousness, and opinions. I don’t know where this sense of certainty comes from. I want to ask you the same thing, sir. I see all of you in the same boat: holding strong opinions and connecting every random issue to Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.

In the last chapter of Mind of Cells and Agenda, it is written how the Mother had given instructions that her body would be transformed and to wait and not disturb it when it may physically seem she has left it. Then why did people not follow her instructions? Nolini da, Amrit da and others must be intuitively linked with the Mother, so why did they not intervene? 📕🙄🙏🏻🌼🍂

I have actually given a couple of talks on this question that people raise based on Satprem’s personal comments in the Agenda which are often taken as gospel truth. No doubt Satprem has done an admirable job in printing the Agenda but we should not forget that The Mother herself did not want the entire Agenda to be published! In fact She mentions at a few places that we better not publish it. But Satprem went ahead and published it! That gives us a little hint about his rebel personality that saw everything from purely personal point of view and …
