At the Feet of The Mother

To Understand the Sri Aurobindo Ashram

The Sri Aurobindo Ashram is the Mother’s creation. Sri Aurobindo stands behind it as the backbone and support. The Mother stands in the front as the leader and the executive Power that is ever engaged in a labour of Divine Love to transform all who enter and work here.

Of course not all are conscious of Her Working but take it on faith. Others resist trying to judge and understand things by the mind. Still others simply open to Her Grace and Love that surround this space from the most physical to the subtlest dimension.

The Ashram is not just an extension in physical space, but like the great pillar of creation itself, it extends below into the subconscient realms and above in subtler domains accepting in its complex organization and occult design the titans and the gods as well as us humans.

It is His Idea-Force that moves the steps of the Divine Shakti that works in the Ashram, now putting a pressure here, now releasing it from there. It is Her Love that embraces all, moves all, transforms all depending upon the degree of our receptivity and resistances.

That is why it is impossible to understand the Ashram with the help of the intellect alone. It is only by entering into the touch of oneness with Her through love, devotion and faith that one can get a glimpse into this mystery-space and wonder and marvel and rejoice at this divine creation.
