“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 ...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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 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...

Sri Aurobindo continues articulating on the Divine and undivine, on the reason of the imperfection here in the law of the manifestation: “One side of the truth of these things we discover when we get into a deeper and larger consciousness; for we find then that there is a cosmic and individual utility in what presents itself to us as adverse and evil. For without experience of pain we would not get all the infinite value of the divine delight of which pain is in travail; all ignorance is a penumbra which environs an orb of knowledge, every error is significant of the possibility and the effort of a discovery of truth; every weakness and failure is a first sounding of gulfs of power and potentiality; all division is intended to enrich by an experience of various sweetness of unification the joy of realised unity. All this imperfection is to us evil, but all evil is in travail of the eternal good; for all is an imperfection which is the first condition—in the law of life evolving out of ...

Still undivine... thus the proactive aspiration To Be a True Aurovilian. https://auroville.org/page/a-true-aurovilian (the acknowledgement and solution to humanity's existential problems declared in crystal clarity to all invited participants since 1970, integrally inseparable with A Dream and The Auroville Charter) Auroville is no utopia, before, now nor in any coming transitional human generation. Here's Sri Aurobindo to remind us of our still quite obvious undivine human nature, the " humanity in the mass (that) is still a hard, crude and vile ore ": "The universe is a manifestation of an infinite and eternal All-Existence: the Divine Being dwells in all that is; we ourselves are that in our self, in our own deepest being; our soul, the secret indwelling psychic entity, is a portion of the Divine Consciousness and Essence. This is the view we have taken of our existence; but at the same time we speak of a divine life as the culmination of the evolutionary pr...

What to make out of the ever hastening and intensifying Lila that is unfolding not just within the City of Dawn but beyond? The confusion and churning continue for the purification to deepen as an unfolding and unveiling of all that is hidden. All this we must experience in the transitional stages. Here are Sri Aurobindo and the Mother's intense warnings, with not just the hope but the certitude of the eventual outcome of this Divine Play: https://incarnateword.in/cwm/09/27-march-1957 In the meantime, without the inner and outer Supramental Transformation that is the Core Narrative and Vision-Goal of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, the superficial old world will take a bit more time to be transcended. Anyway, each must play their unique roles within the full spectrum of Light and Dark, and the Supreme Divine Mother modulates us all. "When darkness deepens strangling the earth’s breast And man’s corporeal mind is the only lamp, As a thief’s in the night shall be the covert tread ...

Here's Sri Aurobindo articulating what a conscious community should be even before the Mother physically manifested Auroville the City of Dawn: "For here there will be an evolving being, an evolving consciousness, an evolving delight of existence. The gnostic being will appear as the sign of an evolution from the consciousness of the Ignorance into the consciousness of Sachchidananda. ... The spiritual man is one who has discovered his soul: he has found his self and lives in that, is conscious of it, has the joy of it; he needs nothing external for his completeness of existence. The gnostic being starting from this new basis takes up our ignorant becoming and turns it into a luminous becoming of knowledge and a realised power of being. All therefore that is our attempt to be in the Ignorance, he will fulfil in the Knowledge. All knowledge he will turn into a manifestation of the self-knowledge of being, all power and action into a power and action of the self-force of being, ...
