The Divine Understanding of Humility

Image
As invited participants in Auroville this City of Dawn, let us repeatedly look very carefully at the Symbol of our founder the Mother and realise where Humility is situated in the progressive Integral Yogic practice towards Divine Perfection: https://incarnateword.in/agenda/13/january-19-1972 " The first eight concern the attitude towards the Divine... " (Mother was very specific, that is, Humility is not towards the compromised transitional ego-bound human, but towards the Divine who speaks and works through Her surrendered instruments acting in Sincerity ) " ...and the last four towards humanity " (upon perfection of the first eight, with Equality as a proactive Samatā ¹ ) Why do we need this divine understanding of Humility? Because there is a dark side to using “humility” as a debilitating tool for psychological warfare. This group conditioning phrase "you must be humble, must be quiet" has been deviously used by many religious and ...

The World Redeemer

Image
Here is the video of the Dawn Bonfire at the Matrimandir Amphitheatre celebrating Sri Aurobindo's 152nd Birth Anniversary on 15th August 2024: You can listen to or download HERE the high quality music soundtrack. The transcript of the poetry readings are as follows: From : A SONNET THE ONE SELF All are deceived, do what the One Power dictates, Yet each thinks his own will his nature moves; The hater knows not ‘tis himself he hates, The lover knows not ‘tis himself he loves. In all is one being many bodies bear; Here Krishna flutes upon the forest road, Here Shiva sits ash-smeared, with matted hair. But Shiva and Krishna are the single God. In us too Krishna seeks for love and joy, In us too Shiva struggles with the world’s grief. One Self in all of us endures annoy, Cries in his pain and asks his fate’s relief. My rival’s downfall is my own disgrace: I look on my enemy and see Krishna’s face. SRI AUROBINDO . . . From: A SONNET - 1934-1947 KRISHNA At last I find a meaning of soul’s...

An Assurance and a Certitude

Image
"Yes, that’s better, a theme that can interest the whole world. Basically what would be good is to say, “Sri Aurobindo came to tell the world the beauty of the future to come.” And then, explain it. “ He came to give—not a hope: a certitude of the splendor towards which the world is moving….” That’s exactly all the experiences I’ve had recently. And I see Sri Aurobindo’s letters, that’s what he says. “ The world is not an unhappy accident, it is a marvel moving towards its expression. ” And then give all the quotations from Sri Aurobindo on the subject. I think that’s what the world most needs now, a word that gives the sense of what is to be realized—of what will be realized. And then, to awaken in each one the desire to collaborate. To understand oneself and transmit it to others. The world needs an assurance of beauty—of the future beauty. And Sri Aurobindo gave the assurance. https://incarnateword.in/agenda/12/november-27-1971 In the meantime Earth continues on in its ...

What 'Human Unity'?

The Core Vision-Goal behind Human Unity in Auroville In the context of the Core Vision-Goal of Auroville, we can clearly see the dilemma from the ongoing contrasting narratives of Human Unity that must be properly understood and harmonised in accordance with the Integral Supramental Yoga of our Avatar founders Sri Aurobindo and the Mother: human unity only to maintain the old pitiful ways of the transitional mental human being Human Unity to prepare for the advent of the new apex species the Supramental being Do you see the glaring distinction? Thus the Integral Supramental Vision-Goal must be properly understood, especially for all invited participants who are seriously engaging in Auroville. Otherwise the undivine false-separative mental call for Human Unity is hollow, dispersed, without cohesion, without the Unifying Power and Spirit of the Supramental, the Divine Truth-Unity Consciousness-Force. Please read again and again, and understand deeply Auroville’s Three Core Id...
