QUESTION:
The Mother says that Savitri alone is enough to guide one on the path. How can it practically help a Sadhak?
ANSWER FROM ALOKDA:
Savitri helps to grow in consciousness through the consciousness contained within the words. It is something similar to the action of a mantra. When we read Savitri we come in contact with the consciousness of Sri Aurobindo (the author) and the Mother (whose story is being primarily told). This contact starts acting upon us and changing us along the lines indicated in Savitri.
