At the Feet of The Mother

Opening Remarks for the Canto Five

Thus swimming upstream Savitri reaches the doorways of her soul. She has travelled far and deep and at each step there is a discovery she has made. Yet the final step requires a renunciation of all this and stand at the doors of the soul even as a naked child who knows nothing. Indeed true knowledge begins with the discovery of our soul. This discovery is like a new birth with a complete reversal of inlook and outlook, with emergence of new powers and possibilities that were hidden in our depths like unseen pearls and diamonds buried in the depths of the sea and the earth.

This discovery of the soul is the first indispensable step towards Savitri’s further journey. It is not just the foundation but the doors through which she has to enter into higher and higher states of consciousness. This discovery is like a rocking of our inner space and a rebuilding of our life in the image of God.
