AuroMaa - At the Feet of The Mother

Explorations in Savitri 126, pp. 318-320

One grew the Spirit’s secret unity,
All Nature felt again the single bliss.
There was no cleavage between soul and soul,
There was no barrier between world and God.

Savitri Satsang 109, pp. 189-191

A weekly sharing on Savitri by Alok Pandey (an audio recording in English).

A Changeless Change, p. 198

Selections from a performance in Auroville, based on Sri Aurobindo’s Savitri, Book 7 ‘The Book of Yoga’. Recorded and edited by Manohar, Auroville.

He tore desire up from its bleeding roots
And offered to the gods the vacant place.
Thus could he bear the touch immaculate.

The Subconscient

Subconscient and material are parts of the lower nature. The subconscient is the basis of conservation. There is a general violent resistance by the vital in the sadhaks against change, a resistance for which there is no true reason except the subconscient unwillingness to alter the obscure foundations of human character.
