Sri Aurobindo reveals the nature of darkness that precedes dawn. This darkness is pregnant with a greater Light that is about to take birth. Such is the cosmic state before creation.
An opening of the Savitri Study Camp with Dr Alok Pandey from August of 2007. The talk gives a general introduction to Savitri, its main characters and the core message.
Though this oneness is the eternal Truth of our being and of the world this is normally hidden under the thick cover of ignorance. Now that this ignorance is slain, this deeper hidden Truth is uncovered and emerges unhindered. Held by this tremendous Oneness and Love Aswapati witnesses the birth of a New World.
Even as Aswapati waited at the gates of the Supermind with a nature that has grown tranquil, pure and still, bereft of ego and desire, one with the cosmic consciousness, he is suddenly drawn inside as if a vast sea was turning its waters inside.
Aswapati has performed the final act of Sacrifice, the last offering into the Fire of aspiration that has carried him thus far. He has offered the refugee instincts chasing them from the dark subconscient domains. He has plucked the very roots of desire and offered his life at the altar of the Divine Mother.
