AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Will ask a very trivial question today, What is your opinion on Vastu based direction🧭? These questions may appear unyogic, but I waited for months to put these questions to you. My apologies if they appear too trivial to you. Please pardon me.

In this new apartment the direction of my bed is towards east, but I am still having difficulty in getting proper restorative sleep. Most of time sleep is disturbed & at times I wake up with a headache. In the earlier apartment the direction of the bed was towards south; I didn’t face such issues. Of course, repeating Maa’s name is my only refuge when sleep eludes me.

Nothing is trivial and everything has its rightful place in the universe. Vastu is one such Science which has studied certain patterns that arise due to change of direction. The apparent cause is the play of the five elements that arrange themselves in certain ways. However when we start making any one factor as if it is the most important or even of exclusive importance then we give it a much larger place than needed and by doing so push away other factors in the background thereby creating another imbalance. The truth however is that there are several factors that operate in an interconnected chain of cause and effect. One cannot alter one link without disturbing the others. Vastu, horoscopes etc are at best intermediary links and often minor ones. The immediate cause of things has to be seen in our own attitudes, psychological movements, life style and the habits of the physical body. The ultimate cause can be traced back to the Divine. Hence instead of trying to manage the intermediary minor links one should look for the immediate causes within oneself and instead of trying to manipulate intermediary links which is likely to create other disturbances one should simply turn to the Highest, the Divine Mother who is the One Power beyond all.

More important than the vastu it is likely that the house has certain formations inhabiting it. But the best way to dissolve them is faith and prayers and turning to Her more and more.

Let Her Peace and Light and Love invade every corner of the new house. Invoke Her Name and read Savitri and play Savitri music all the time and all will be well.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Dada, yesterday during the study circle, we were reading about Purusha and Prakriti. In the course of the discussion, I happened to say that Sri Aurobindo is Purusha and the Mother is Prakriti (the executive power of the Purusha). Dada, please tell us your view. 😊🙏🏻🌼🪷

The truth of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother is that they are human representation of Ishwara and Shakti. Shakti is also known simetimes known as Paraprakriti or the higher Divine Supernature. 

Prakriti generally refers to the lower formulation of the Higher Divine Nature. Prakriti as it operates here…

Wanted to understand what the last line would mean: “there is a determinism, but externally.” If you could shed some light on this. Sharing the lines below: 📖😊🙏🏻🌼[…]

It means that freedom and fate walk together always. There is on the one side the determinisms or the chain of cause and effect that we have created due to the energies and action of our mind, heart, will and actions labouring in ignorance. Their effects continues to haunt us under the pressure of habit and past momentum…

Sir, the popular bhakti song ‘Shokoli tomari iccha….tomar kormo tumi koro ma, loke bole kori ami’, which you often mention, was sung by Pannalal Bhattacharya. He was a legendary Shyama Sangeet singer. Dwijendralal Roy was mainly associated with patriotic songs. One of his famous songs is ‘ Dhono dhanye puspe bhora’. 🎼😊🙏🏻🌼🎶

Yes as a child I was quite fond of Pannalal ji. Actually I was referring to the writer, not the singer. May be you could let me know the author of the song.
