AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Why does disease happen in the body in spite of taking all care, eating healthy, doing exercise etc.? How can one cure oneself without seeking medical help or relying on it totally? Does body respond to self-healing? How is it done🤔?

It is a vast and complex subject given the number of factors involved in health and healing.  For instance too much care of body may be due to an obsession, or out of fear in which case these psychological factors undo the good by exercises etc. Most important is the principle balance and moderation,  and a simple happy harmonious life, a calm mind and having faith in God. 

In our present condition, it is best to combine self-healing alongwith the use of gentle, mild medicines. Faith in cure and the will to get well are two most important factors in healing.

At one end, aspiration for the Divine and to unite with Him and to have a change of consciousness; to do The Mother’s work; at the other end, need for a proper awareness in the very ordinary and externalised human nature about the deep meaning and implication of what is happening in life and also what the Divine Destiny is. 🌱🙏🏻[…]

It is much better to catch the knot of life at the other end from where it all begins. The riddle of life cannot be understood on the surface. Focus on the one thing needful, the Divine, and all the rest will begin to fall in its place. This has been the experience of all who have gone on the path.

I am reading the Synthesis of Yoga and Sri Aurobindo is speaking about the union having a threefold character (pg. 131). I wanted to understand whether this is a skilful parallel to draw: a union by identity = Atman = Brahman 📖🌟🙏🏻 […]

Here is the passage from the Synthesis of Yoga to which you are referring.

‘That which is thus made manifest to our vision and experience, and the union has a threefold character. There is a union in spiritual essence, by identity; there is a union by the indwelling of our soul in this highest Being and Consciousness; there is a
