What points ascending Nature to her goal?
’Tis not man’s lame transcribing intellect
With its carved figures rigid and erect
But the far subtle vision of his soul..."

"...Although our fallen minds forget to climb,
Although our human stuff resists or breaks,
She keeps her will that hopes to divinise clay..."

And nothing shows the Glory that is here."

"...Infant self-feeling grew and birth was born.
A godhead woke but lay with dreaming limbs;
Her house refused to open its sealed doors."

"...Our truths discovered are but dust and trace
Of the eternal Energy in her race."
"...the transcendent and universal person of the Divine conforms itself to our individualised personality and accepts a personal relation with us ...as our Master, Friend, Lover, Teacher, our Father and our Mother, our Playmate in the great world-game..."

"...An ocean of electric Energy
Formlessly formed its strange wave-particles
Constructing by their dance this solid scheme,
Its mightiness in the atom shut to rest"

Беседа Д-ра Алока Пандея (на английском языке с переводом на русский).
"… [Savitri], a revelation coming from the very highest summits of consciousness and embodying the sublimest and subtlest Wisdom and Power, is best received as a gift of Grace.

Hence we do not intend to offer any ‘explanations’ or ‘analytical understanding’ of Savitri through these pages."

A little mind winged through wide space to run.
It lived, it knew, it saw its self sublime,
Deathless, outmeasuring Space, outlasting Time.

A FIXED and narrow power with rigid forms,
He saw the empire of the little life,
An unhappy corner in eternity.
It lived upon the margin of the Idea
Protected by Ignorance as in a shell.
A talk by Dr Alok Pandey (AUDIO IN HINDI)
Narad, the heavenly sage, has been blessed with the ability of seeing the scroll of fate. This foresight is a mixed boon since it can see and hear the far approaching feet of pain even as the individual is rejoicing in the present moment. He circles around the truth that is appearing before his eyes...
