Progressing towards the Supramental Victory

Here is just one of the Mother's Visions of Auroville from 64 years ago:

"It was the idea of an ideal city, the nucleus of a small ideal country, having only superficial and extremely limited contacts with the old world. One would already have to conceive (it’s possible) of a Power sufficient to be at once a protection against aggression or bad will (this would not be the most difficult protection to provide) and a protection (which can just barely be imagined) against infiltration and admixture…. From the social or organizational standpoint, these problems are not difficult, nor from the standpoint of inner life; the problem is the relationship with what is not Supramentalised—preventing infiltration or admixture, keeping the nucleus from falling back into an inferior creation during the transitional period. ...

I am constantly seeing images! Not images, living things—like answers to questions. A magnificent peacock was taking shape (it’s the symbol of victory here in India) and its tail opened out, and on it a construction appeared, like this construction of an ideal place…"

Fast-forward to the present Circa 2025...

Go out and about in the emerging City of Dawn and the surrounding districts and explore, engage... feel the swirling energies of seeming contradictory yet complementary progress. The ever-hastening Renaissance of Mother India is pushing Auroville to fully awaken to its raison d’être.

"A protection against infiltration and admixture..."

We altogether continue on, with the Supreme Divine Mother MahaShakti orchestrating the progress of Her City of Dawn, amongst other very interesting goings-on. Matrimandir as Her Temple magnificently stands beside the central Banyan Tree as the Golden Beacon beckoning all receptives towards the Divine Manifestation of the new apex species the Supramental being.

For the curious non-initiates and confused:

Sri Aurobindo and he Mother as Avatars always reveal for a specific reason and purpose.

Envision a future-oriented Gurukulam, a car-free Garden City similar to a secured and well-managed university campus ++, the Greatest Seat of Knowledge for the Integral Supramental Yoga, which includes the study of all the inner and outer knowledge and experiences humans have accumulated acting as a living experimental center in preparation for the advent of the new species, to be manifested in a few generations' time. So the informed systematic preparation is crucial, which has always been the Agenda even before Auroville's inception in 1968. May we always remember. This is the unique particularity of this City of Dawn, Cradle of the Supramental being. It is no coincidence that Auroville has evolved under the Ministry of Education and within Mother India the Guru of the World, now in an unstoppable Renaissance. Even the theme of the recent visit to Auroville of Mother India's President Droupadi Murmu is titled "Aspiring for Supermind (Supramental) in the City of Evolving Consciousness". Connect the dots.

Thus Auroville's purpose is for a totally New Supramental World. This is crystal clear in our integrated Core Ideal Vision-Goals:

We are not invited here just to live out the same old human ways.

Surrounding the City of Dawn will still be the buzzing mental-human world. But once inside the Protected City it should be a whole different vibes and experience, acting as a transformative contagion for the whole Earth.

Again from the Mother:

“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.”

There are, as usual, the old world forces averse to this Original Radical Ideal of our Avatar founders who have and are influencing unawakened humans here in Auroville, vehemently resisting change and creating disharmony and chaos, which is exactly what the ongoing evolutionary battle is all about. It is high time they are courageously faced, tackled and rejected head on, faithfully supported by the easiest and most joyful Sunlit Path of Bhakti to the Supreme Divine Mother MahaShakti.

The Kurukshetra War of the Bhagavad Gita is as always an excellent reference in understanding this Divine Play and making a conscious choice for the New Supramental Dharma. Sri Aurobindo's Essays on the Gita is a must guide for all aspiring willing servitors and Hero Warriors of the Divine Consciousness-Force:

"Oohlala!" is an apropos joyful remark as we observe and experience the intensity of the current upward push, another renewed and reinvigorated consolidation phase in the progressive march towards the Supramental Victory.

Ultimate Aim

"Yogic Samata is equality of soul, equanimity founded on the sense of the one Self, the one Divine everywhere—seeing the One in spite of all differences, degrees, disparities in the manifestation. The mental principle of equality tries to ignore or else to destroy the differences, degrees and disparities, to act as if all were equal there or to try and make all equal. It is like Hriday, the nephew of Ramakrishna, who when he got the touch from Ramakrishna began to shout, “Ramakrishna, you are the Brahman and I too am the Brahman; there is no difference between us”, till Ramakrishna, as he refused to be quiet, had to withdraw the power. Or like the disciple who refused to listen to the Mahout and stood before the elephant, saying, “I am Brahman”, until the elephant took him up in his trunk and put him aside. When he complained to his Guru, the Guru said, “Yes, but why didn’t you listen to the Mahout Brahman? That was why the elephant Brahman had to lift you up and put you out of ha...

A Shared and Lived Divinity

Image
"The Divinity mentioned by Sri Aurobindo is NOT A PERSON… He insisted a lot on this. “… is not a person, but a condition to be shared and lived by all those who prepare themselves for it.” To those who "are silly, they still feel, “Oh, if I could stay very quiet, then I would change.” They need a slap. That’s all. There's still some friction." From who, again? Here, for those who still don't get it: "There was a rather interesting phenomenon (it was yesterday or the day before), amusing little details: now the last member of the Government of India has been converted, so to speak. All the members of Government (the Central Government—I don’t mean the whole country, but of the centre), all the members of the Central Government are … (what should I say?) I could almost say “apprentice disciples of Sri Aurobindo,” with a great goodwill to serve. And everywhere, everywhere in the world, the signs of a CONSCIOUS goodwill awakening." "And then, resistanc...

The Supramental Solution

Image
"What is the solution?" Amidst the intense collective churnings, this question was again asked by another aspiring True Aurovilian, and surrender as an answer is highlighted. This Sunlit Path of Surrender or Bhakti has always been the anchor of Auroville’s Three Core Ideal Vision-Goals. ¹ But surrender to who and for what? Here are our Avatar founders Sri Aurobindo and the Mother for guidance: "But something has happened in the world’s history which allows us to hope that a selected few in humanity, a small number of beings, perhaps, are ready to be transformed into pure gold and that they will be able to manifest strength without violence, heroism without destruction and courage without catastrophe. But in the very next paragraph Sri Aurobindo gives the answer: “If man could once consent to be spiritualised.” If only the individual could consent to be spiritualised… could consent." ² "And even this unification which already demands a return to the Spirit...
