Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

December 27, 1933

Last night as I was meditating in a half-sleepy state, I had a vision of a most gorgeous auroral display of colours in the eastern horizon, one colour being added to and superimposed on the other in a quick succession; the sort of display one sees before the sun rises, only infinitely grander. I don’t remember whether your image flashed through before or after the vision. Has it any significance?

The play of colours is the play of forces and on the east indicates something that is beginning or about to begin.
