Who Coined "Divine Anarchy"?

It was the Mother, but with the proper guidance:

"What political organisation do you want for Auroville?

"An amusing definition occurs to me: a divine anarchy. But the world will not understand. Men must become conscious of their psychic being and organise themselves spontaneously, without fixed rules and laws―that is the ideal.

 

For this, one must be in contact with one’s psychic being, one must be guided by it and the ego’s authority and influence must disappear."

 

28 December 1972

Thus in “To Be A True Aurovilian”  the Mother was very specific on the first necessity, of being conscious of the psychic being:

 

“The first necessity is the inner discovery in order to know what one truly is behind social, moral, cultural, racial and hereditary appearances.

 

At the centre there is a being free, vast and knowing, who awaits our discovery and who ought to become the active centre of our being and our life in Auroville.”

So before the discovery of the psychic being of enough humans, the message below applies:

 

“320—The anarchic is the true divine state of man in the end as in the beginning; but in between it would lead us straight to the devil and his kingdom. ...

 

319—Governments, societies, kings, police, judges, institutions, churches, laws, customs, armies are temporary necessities imposed on us for a few groups of centuries because God has concealed His face from us. When it appears to us again in its truth and beauty, then in that light they will vanish.”

 

(Clearly “temporary necessities”, even as the Administration of the Central Government of Mother India is needed to counter-check the anarchic tendencies of egoistic “self-professed Aurovilians” prior to the Divine Manifestation of the new apex species the Supramental being which is estimated at around 300 years, “a few groups of centuries”, from 29th February 1956 (see below PS). Who anyway but the Supreme Divine Mother is modulating the Play of all Her children, including all in the Central Government assigned to Auroville. So more intense compelling circumstances to come. That is why the willing servitors and Hero Warriors were lovegifted the easiest and most joyful Sunlit Path of Bhakti to the Supreme Divine Mother MahaShakti to view and engage in the Play from a higher vantage point in Yogic Samatā)

 

“Someone from Auroville wrote to me that he thought he had come here to obey no one but himself (or words to that effect), but he noticed there are rules and laws. And he said, “I am not going to do any of this; I am a free man and refuse to do this.” This was reported to me, naturally, so I wrote to him (I don’t remember): “One is free only when one is conscious of the Divine and conscious that it is the Divine who makes decisions in everyone, otherwise one is the slave of one’s desires, one’s habits, of all conventions….” I sent him that, and he kept quiet.

 

That’s what I wanted to add here [to this aphorism]. We should say: One is free only when it is the Divine who makes decisions in each of us, otherwise men are the slaves of their desires, their habits, of all conventions, all laws, all rules…. And the more they think themselves free, the more bound they are!”

As the Mother has already left Her human physical body, we now know the answer to the question "Who will check the “ego-anarchists” Aurovilians?"

 

. . .

 

PS: But there is always the hope, the possibility of “perhaps sooner. It will depend on men, on nations.”

 

“One must have an absolutely transparent sincerity. Lack of sincerity is the cause of the difficulties we meet at present. Insincerity is in all men. There are perhaps a hundred men on earth who are totally sincere. Man’s very nature makes him insincere―it is very complicated, for he is constantly deceiving himself, hiding the truth from himself, making excuses for himself. Yoga is the way to become sincere in all parts of the being.

 

It is difficult to be sincere, but at least one can be mentally sincere; this is what can be demanded of Aurovilians. The force is there, present as never before; man’s insincerity prevents it from descending, from being felt. The world lives in falsehood, all relations between men have until now been based on falsehood and deceit. Diplomatic relations between nations are based on falsehood. They claim to want peace, and meanwhile they are arming themselves. Only a transparent sincerity in man and among nations can usher in a transformed world.

 

Auroville is the first attempt in this experiment. A new world will be born; if men are willing to make an effort for transformation, to seek for sincerity, it is possible. From animal to man, thousands of years were needed; today, with his mind, man can will and hasten a transformation towards a man who shall be God.

 

This transformation by the help of the mind―by self-analysis―is a first step; afterwards, it is necessary to transform the vital impulses: that is much more difficult, and especially to transform the physical. Every cell in our bodies must become conscious. This is the work I am doing here; it will enable the conquest of death. That is another story; that will be the humanity of the future, perhaps after hundreds of years, perhaps sooner. It will depend on men, on nations.

 

Auroville is the first step towards this goal.”

Who could those sincere courageous “men” and “nations” be?

 

We all continue on together with “the smile of love that sanctions the long game…”
