Canto Five gives us a powerful and detailed description of the experiences during the passage to one’s soul. It gives us an insight into the psychic being and its function.

The hidden Serpent power coiled at the base of the spine begins to uncoil itself and the Mother’s Force begins to stream downwards as the descending current that opens up the centres of consciousness in the subtle body of man. The opening of these centres takes place from above downwards in the scheme of Integral Yoga and is accompanied by corresponding changes in our nature. It is truly like a new birth, a reversal of consciousness and a radical change in the way we perceive, understand and respond to the world. Once this psycho-spiritual transformation is the first indispensable basis for the yoga of supramental transformation and freedom from the law of death and ignorance. It creates the first meeting ground between Heaven and Earth or Soul and Nature bridging the apparent gap between God and World that our mind has created.
