AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

You talk so many times of detachment in general life. Either it’s relationship which hurts anyone or the homely or office life from which one is not satisfied. But how should I detach from the outer things happening in my life whether it’s bad or good. What is the process of that? Can you please elaborate the method. There are times in my life when I have a problem and I am unable to find any solution to that, will detachment to that problem will help me? Will it give me less pain ? Or will it help me to find a way?

By attaching oneself to the Divine one gets more and more detached with the surface play of the world which is essentially a play of ignorance. The process is to step back every time the world forces provoke us to react. Step back and see how important or unimportant the situation is essentially in comparison to the goal placed before us. You will see that most of the time the value we give to an event is way too high than it really is. We also begin to observe that if we pause a little much of the reaction dies down and as the storm subsides we can see better, act better.

Finally since our detachment is not by applying some mental force which creates reactions but due to a growing attachment with the Divine, a new understanding awakens us giving us a better and a total perspective and grasp over the situation. Aided by the Divine to whom we are attached and who is with us, we feel supported and helped by a greater power to resolve our problems and issues than what our limited mind could even conceive of.

Alok Da, I have got attached to someone after a physical intimacy (kind of night stands – about 4-5) but he is not. how to handle it.

I am afraid of conveying my feelings to him as I know he is not going to reciprocate. I am just always craving his proximity, which i know is my problem.. How can I be at peace?? I want to detach myself from those feelings i have towards him?

What has happened has happened. It serves no purpose looking back and feeling bad. Life gives several learning lessons. This is one of them and a very precious one. One needs to understand that the way a woman feels and experiences life is very different from the …

My niece is in Class-9th. She is facing some problems in her class. Students ignore her in the class. She is good at studies. They say she has an attitude. She says that she feels alone in the class, especially during recess. 🏫🤝🌼[…]

Children who are either above or below the average face this isolation in the class. It is more so if the child is inwardly more developed as your niece is. Instead of trying to change to find friends she should learn to accept herself as she is and wait till she discovers someone who shares her tastes and temperament. She will find a few …
