On the occasion of Sri Aurobindo's Mahasamadhi day we discuss an aspect of His vast yoga which baffles many. It is this possibility of physical immortality.
This talk cum interaction centers around the psychic approach to the Yoga. Questions such as relevance of old forms of worship, love for the Divine, intuition have been discussed. A talk by Dr Alok Pandey.
Death now enters the realm of collective subconscious where the records of past events are kept. He shows here how ideals, systems, creeds, revolutions, philosophies have ended. He once again questions the possibility of ever changing the law of earth.
Yoga is a concentrated evolution; it is a means of bringing out the highest and deepest possibilities latent in man. Right now our life is hampered and limited in many ways. The human mind and senses as they are presently organized are fundamentally incapable of overcoming these limitations. Yet there is, in man, a quest sublime to exceed and transcend himself.
What is the essential core of Sri Aurobindo's vast and complex personality? On the one side we see him as an embodiment of tyaga (renunciation) and tapasya (concentrated spiritual endeavour), on the other - his tremendous compassion for earth and humanity.
This talk is based on the boons granted to Savitri, especially the Supramental Creation and the coming of a New Race upon earth as envisaged in the passages on pp. 704–710 (B11).
Each world is governed by its own inherent and intrinsic law. Its beings and creatures as well as those who act under its influence come under this law and experience things accordingly.
A talk at Savitri Bhavan on 25th April 2009 by Prof. Arabinda Basu (1918 - 2012), who had first darshan of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother on 15th August, 1941. Several important letters on the Mother were written to him by Sri Aurobindo.
