Only For and Only When

Image
Only For This message is only for “a selected few”. Who? Here are Sri Aurobindo and the Mother to clarify: https://zechjoya.blogspot.com/2026/01/a-selected-few.html Only When "Just the state of consciousness when I act spontaneously (the “I” is a habit of speech, it’s to avoid having to make sentences), when I act spontaneously, without objectifying myself, it is generally fairly unbearable: the reactions in others are tiresome. I always have to [contain myself] … It does happen, but generally I am obliged to be careful, especially when I have to speak. And there is a very amusing observation; it’s exactly what Sri Aurobindo writes in Savitri: “The wise men talk and sleep …” God grows up while the wise men talk and sleep. And that’s how it is: wholly unconscious of what goes on. I don’t say it (I am saying it to you), but they are wholly unconscious. I constantly feel I am using a candle snuffer! so as not to be … really unbearable. When this luminous Power comes, it’s so compact...

Who are you?

"The Soul of man, a traveller, wanders in this cycle of Brahman, huge, a totality of lives, a totality of states, thinking itself different from the Impeller of the journey. Accepted by Him, it attains its goal of Immortality. Swetaswatara Upanishad. (I. 6.) "The progressive revelation of a great, a transcendent, a luminous Reality with the multitudinous relativities of this world that we see and those other worlds that we do not see as means and material, condition and field, this would seem then to be the meaning of the universe,— since meaning and aim it has and is neither a purposeless illusion nor a fortuitous accident . For the same reasoning which leads us to conclude that world-existence is not a deceptive trick of Mind, justifies equally the certainty that it is no blindly and helplessly self-existent mass of separate phenomenal existences clinging together and struggling together as best they can in their orbit through eternity, no tremendous self-creation and self-...

An Advancing Science, Not a Religion

Image
For the still a bit doubtful of the Integral Supramental Yoga of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, but still hanging about in Their Auroville for the-Supreme-Divine-Mother-only-knows what 😘: “The Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother is, in fact, a programme of yogic research,—a programme of scientific and applied research. For Yoga is not a closed book. It is not a body of revelations made once for all, unverifiable and unsurpassable. It is not a religion; it is an advancing science, with its field of inquiry and search always enlarging; its methods are not only intuitive but include also bold experimentation and rigorous verification by means of abiding experience, and, finally, even by physical change and transformation. It is in this spirit that Sri Aurobindo and Mother went on testing day and night their experiments and results over decades and decades. Their programme of yogic research took within its sweep all the domains of life, all aspects of culture, and arrived at a sy...

Transformation is IN THE WORK ITSELF

Image
Individual and Collective Here's the Mother revealing to Satprem that “ the individual work of the body's transformation ” is concurrent with and complementary to the work for the collective: "But in your case… it’s your mission, you understand. I don’t know how to explain. I always, always see you in direct and constant contact with… with this Consciousness expressing itself; so when it reaches the mental level, you’re as if… arranging pawns on a chessboard. I’ve looked very, very often: it’s indispensable, it’s an indispensable work, and extremely useful. Naturally, my body, too, might say, “If instead of seeing all these people I were all the time like this (gesture huddled in the Lord), working to hasten the transformation, it would be very pleasant!” For you too, it’s like that, but we’re here to do something. That’s it. And it’s a certainty, a certainty because several times when things became critical, I have told the Lord, “There, it’s for You to decide—whether to...

What is the Good Will for?

Image
“Greetings from Auroville to all men of good will. “Are invited to Auroville all those who thirst for progress and aspire to a higher and truer life.” https://incarnateword.in/agenda/09/february-28-1968 Obviously not for the mere benefit of the human. The Mother was very clear in the link below: https://incarnateword.in/agenda/01/may-2-1956 Getting straight back to the point of “good will” for anyone wishing to engage in Her Auroville, the Mother continues: "But it’s not man who is going to convert himself into a superman! No? Just try a little! (laughter) You see, it is something else that is going to do the work. So we are … Only—yes, there is an ‘only,’ I don’t want to be so cruel: NOW MAN CAN COLLABORATE. That is, he can lend himself to the process, with good will, with aspiration, and help to his utmost. Which is why I said it will go faster. I hope it will go MUCH faster. But even if it does go much faster, it will still take some time!" Crystal clear enough, isn't ...

The Only Thing Truly Effective

Image
“It is indeed possible even while fasting for very long periods to maintain the full energies and activities of the soul and mind and life, even those of the body, to remain wakeful but concentrated in Yoga all the time, or to think deeply and write day and night, to dispense with sleep, to walk eight hours a day, maintaining all these activities separately or together and not feel any loss of strength, any fatigue, any kind of failure or decadence. At the end of the fast one can even resume at once taking the normal or even a greater than the normal amount of nourishment without any transition or precaution such as medical science enjoins, as if both the complete fasting and the feasting were natural conditions, alternating by an immediate and easy passage from one to the other, of a body already trained by a sort of initial transformation to be an instrument of the powers and activities of Yoga. But one thing one does not escape and that is the wasting of the material tissues of the ...

The Undivine Human Life

Image
This must first be fully acknowledged before the aspiration for a Life Divine irrefutably comes. "…our present life is undivine and all the life too that is below us." “...the distinction between the divine and the undivine has an insistent value, a very pressing significance. This then is an aspect of the problem which it is necessary to bring into the light and assess its true importance.” https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/21/the-divine-and-the-undivine Victory Over Falsehood "The lords of Falsehood hold, at present, almost complete sway over poor humanity. Not only the lower life-energy, the lower vital being, but also the whole mind of man accepts them. Countless are the ways in which they are worshipped, for they are most subtle in their cunning and seek their ends in variously seductive disguises. The result is that men cling to their falsehood as if it were a treasure, cherishing it more than even the most beautiful things of life. Apprehensive of its safety, they tak...

Who Do You Think You're Not?

Here are the answers from the Dual Supramental Avatar Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, founders of Auroville who have invited us to participate in their collective experiment of transformation: https://incarnateword.in/cwm/08/14-march-1956 https://incarnateword.in/cwm/08/29-february-1956 " In fact, this is what we have said more than fifty thousand times... " This inner realisation of who We truly are behind the human "appearances" is the first necessity for anyone aspiring To Be a True Aurovilian: https://auroville.org/page/core-documents This "must" understanding is to arrive at a conscious proactive participation in the hastening of the Divine Advent of the new species the Supramental being. This preparation will take a few more human generations of willing servitors and hero warriors of the Divine Consciousness-Force. Thus the founding of Auroville the City of Dawn for this specific Vision-Goal and Purpose. “ Humanity is not the last rung of terrestrial c...

Destruction by One's Own Resistance

Image
Continuing from my last post ' Auroville's Raison D’être ' with the Mother's crystal clear declaration for anyone participating in Her and Sri Aurobindo's Auroville: “Humanity is not the last rung of terrestrial creation. Evolution continues and man will be surpassed. It is for each one to know whether he wants to participate in the advent of the new species. For those who are satisfied with the world as it is, Auroville obviously has no raison d’être.” Mother continues in the following to make us understand the mechanics, of how the Action of the Divine Supramental Will and Force works, and the dire effects of the resistance to It: "For national events, relations among nations, world circumstances, it acts like that, constantly, constantly, as a tremendous Power. And so if one is oneself in a state of union with the divine Will, without any intervention of thought, or any conception or idea, one can follow it, one sees and knows. The resistances of the inertia...

Auroville's Raison D’être

Some musings on 15 June 2026: “Humanity is not the last rung of terrestrial creation. Evolution continues and man will be surpassed. It is for each one to know whether he wants to participate in the advent of the new species. For those who are satisfied with the world as it is, Auroville obviously has no raison d’être.” The Mother https://incarnateword.in/agenda/07/september-21-1966 (it's all there, so no more secrets nor excuses nor complaints for one's own karmic consequences) To anyone who is compelled to participate in Her Auoville but is not yet too sure and asks “Who is the Divine Consciousness-Force incarnated as ‘The Mother’?”, here's Sri Aurobindo: https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/32/the-mother-vi There Sri Aurobindo fully reveals Mahashakti. Simply use ‘Search’ or ‘Find in page’ 'Mahashakti' and read carefully to fully understand who She is. In the Mother's Symbol, the Center which is coloured either White or Gold, is Mahashakti. https://incarnateword.in...

Are You Ready for Her Auroville?

This popped up four days ago: “When I invited you to a journey into the unknown, a journey of adventure, I did not know I was so close to the truth, and I can promise those who are ready to attempt the adventure that they will make very interesting discoveries.” https://incarnateword.in/cwm/09/19-february-1958 Carefully read it all and understand, and decide if you are ready for Her Auroville... “Greetings from Auroville to all men of good will. “Are invited to Auroville all those who thirst for progress and aspire to a higher and truer life.” https://incarnateword.in/agenda/09/february-28-1968 . . . Commentaries: From an Auroville participant: " ‘They’ always tell before they do it…..have a look at this clip from a 1996 film… https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1Gorj4f4cS/ ….and the dystopia that's at the doorstep https://www.facebook.com/share/v/14hZ3b7FvQk/ " . . .

A Greater Purpose

Image
A Greater Purpose must first be set as Prime Directive and Narrative before not only CIRHU (Center for International Research on Human Unity), the collective Prosperity System and  Auroville itself to take off as it was envisioned by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother for 50,000 consciously aspiring invited participants: “A Greater Endeavour of Transformation and Transcendence” — Sri Aurobindo  “The whole earth must prepare itself for the advent of the new species, and Auroville wants to work consciously to hasten this advent.” — The Mother  “The object is transformation, and the transformation can only be done by a force infinitely greater than your own; it can only be done by being truly like a child in the hands of the Divine Mother." — Sri Aurobindo  Only with this Narrative of Inner and Outer Transformation can we fully reject and overcome all the blocking but needed ( "their insistence is not allowed to slacken" see below) elements of the dying old world that r...
