All that is found in the higher states is recreated here as its dark imitation, thereby trapping the fallen beings in a web of lies and propaganda, mixed with terror and fear and the perverted joy of a fallen state.
Important Questions (in Hindi)
Dr Alok Pandey meets with students of Gopinathpur, Odisha, in 2018. The talk is about some of the important questions we must ask and see how their answers change.
12.2 Knowledge by Identification
Is it not possible to know the universe in its reality as it is in itself, independently of the observer or thinker?
Yes, there is a way: it is by identification. But obviously it is a means which eludes absolutely all physical methods.
The Process of Evolution (TH 051)
The Yoga of Sri Aurobindo has taken up the whole nature and life as the field of yoga. Here it is not rejection but to purify the nature and feel the unity and Oneness of God in everything and everywhere.
On Fanaticism and Other Forms of Evil
The focus is on how to deal with the growing fanaticism and evil in the world. Questions on the psychic being and it’s growth.
The Deeper Meaning: The Eternal Mother
Mother, what does this photo represent? … It depends on one’s receptivity…
Explorations in Savitri 146, pp. 353-355
A Mother-wisdom works in Nature’s breast
To pour delight on the heart of toil and want
And press perfection on life’s stumbling powers,
Impose heaven-sentience on the obscure abyss
And make dumb Matter conscious of its God.
Reading Savitri
“Most of all enjoy Savitri. It is Sri Aurobindo’s gift of Love to the world. Read it from the heart with love and gratitude as companions, and drown in its fiery bliss. That is the true understanding rather than one that comes by a constant churning of words in the head.”

The Reign of Hell, pp. 215-216
Aswapati now reveals to us how Darkness and Hell have a hold on the human consciousness and influence our lives, creating here too a reign of Hell. Sri Aurobindo reveals to us what really is Evil and how it operates under the garb of organized religions and creeds.
Peace and Silence
After two days of the higher state, inertia comes, covering up my consciousness. Then the restlessness becomes so overwhelming that I cannot even meditate. Can nothing be done to prevent this reaction?
The peace and silence have to come into the physical and replace the inertia.
Sri Rama, Sri Krishna, Sri Aurobindo
Sri Rama and Sri Krishna are fulfilled in Sri Aurobindo, as with this New Force is the power to transform the animal in us into a vehicle of the Divine Force and convert the Asura in us through the one and only all-powerful agency of the Divine Mother’s Love.
