About Savitri | B1C3-06 The Divine Successor of Man (pp.27-28)

 

A magical accord quickened and attuned
To ethereal symphonies the old earthy strings;
It raised the servitors of mind and life
To be happy partners in the soul’s response,
Tissue and nerve were turned to sensitive chords,
Records of lustre and ecstasy; it made
The body’s means the spirit’s acolytes.
A heavenlier function with a finer mode
Lit with its grace man’s outward earthliness;
The soul’s experience of its deeper sheaths
No more slept drugged by Matter’s dominance.
In the dead wall closing us from wider self,
Into a secrecy of apparent sleep,
The mystic tract beyond our waking thoughts,
A door parted, built in by Matter’s force,
Releasing things unseized by earthly sense:
A world unseen, unknown by outward mind
Appeared in the silent spaces of the soul.

Again it is the very exact and correct description of what happens when the consciousness is united to the Higher Consciousness, when man is no more limited to just his vital-mental self. The inner opening puts you in connection with all the inner worlds and then the knowledge becomes quite different and changes into a direct vision of everything.

He sat in secret chambers looking out
Into the luminous countries of the unborn
Where all things dreamed by the mind are seen and true
And all that the life longs for is drawn close.
He saw the Perfect in their starry homes
Wearing the glory of a deathless form
Lain in the arms of the Eternal’s peace,
Rapt in the heart-beats of God-ecstasy.
He lived in the mystic space where thought is born
And will is nursed by an ethereal Power
And fed on the white milk of the Eternal’s strengths
Till it grows into the likeness of a god.

This is the promised successor of man upon earth, the being that will be to man what man is to the animal; the successor of humanity hoped for, which is the expression of all the aspirations of humanity; a being that can grow out of suffering and limitations and unconsciousness, and can rise into Light and Knowledge and Power; the creature that will be the raison d’etre of the creation, the legitimation of the creation; the being that will be the coming back consciously of the Divine towards the Divine.
All the sufferings, all the hardships, all the miseries of humanity will be effaced, annulled, conquered by the conquest of a true and powerful Consciousness: the next step that is to be made the expression of all our aspirations.
