Home » Questions on Mother, Sri Aurobindo and Savitri » Will the Mother get angry if I pray to other gods? I understand that she is a divine being, unlike humans, but I often feel guilty about it. Why do I have these feelings😥?
Why should She get angry? All is Herself. The gods themselves are Her children though She has a very special affection for mankind. In any case since all the gods are Her powers and aspects, it is She who grants the prayer and acts from behind even when we pray to the gods.
Affectionately,

Tapas leads to an increase of energy. Faith in the Divine increases its potency whereas doubt and a sceptic questioning does decrease it. But there can be a questioning that seeks to understand and know better. Such a questioning may well consolidate the tapas more by giving it clarity of the mind.
To quieten the mind and vital one should learn to live within rather than projected on the surfaces of life, reacting and responding to every stimulus. We should try to practice equanimity in the face of the touches of nature such as heat or cold, remarks of people such as praise or insult, gains and losses, success and failures, pleasure and pain. This is the foundation.
