Savitri asks the gods who are hurrying to help the world. They show her the way to reach her soul.
At the Feet of The Mother
Canto III: The Entry into the Inner Countries
Savitri leaves the fixed bounded station of the Mind and plunges deeper into her soul.
Savitri seeks to pass beyond the world of mind in search of her soul.
After introducing us to the workings of the mind, Sri Aurobindo now takes us into the Mind realm where Savitri enters through her soul depths.
The Mind restrains life so that it does not stray into extremes. It determines the paths along which the river of life flows.
The action of mind is to limit and restraint life as well as the Infinite.
Savitri now moves beyond the realm of life into the domain of mind that puts a chain upon life.
The force of life moves in a dangerous Intermediate Zone from where it is difficult to escape.
Savitri hears the cry of life and its surge towards power and lust and joy.
Savitri now enters the realm of Life and its powerful giant head.
Savitri now strives to step out of the consciousness held in the grip of senses and the elemental energies.
Savitri forces her way through the gates of Matter into the subtle realms.
Savitri now turns within in search of her soul. She becomes conscious of her work and mission.
Savitri now embarks upon a long and tremendous journey in search of the secret of fate and the way to conquer death and destiny.
