Auroville - The Mother's experiment of manifesting synthesis

It has almost been a year now that I have been residing in and out of Auroville as a volunteer. There is no place like this on the whole planet as far as I know where The Mother dreamt of human unity for the incarnating souls who will be faced with the onslaught of the forces of darkness (which always are looking to create separation). The Brotherhood envisioned and taught in Theosophy was one step taken further in this century amidst forces of darkness, chaos, hatred and divisiveness.

The barren land of 1960s has been transformed into a dry tropical evergreen forest through permaculture patiently practiced over half a century.

Today Matrimandir (An inner temple of the Divine Mother physically manifested and treated as soul of AUROVILLE ) is seen from above as shown below

The book Auroville: Sun-Word Rising by Savitra (Alan Shasha Lithman) aptly captures the battle being fought to manifest Auroville soon after physical passing away of The Mother in 1973. An image of this book (from Auroville's Library) but can be freely downloaded from auro e-books website.

Ofcourse Auroville is still admist new battle of seemingly varying ideologies. Unfortunately residents of Auroville forgetting their divinity are succumbing to human ignorance and weakness and are fighting amongst each other by forming two groups (common black and white thinking or duality of good and evil explained by the great Initiate Jesus in Kim Micheals' books). Yet still here is a place which has manifested despite humans as The Mother had prophesized at the end of her incarnation. Savitra one of true Aurovillian's book captures the initial period of turbulent manifestation during 1980s.

A synthesis of Savitri and Theosophy - Painting No 15

Today we continue to contemplate on the remaining lines from Page 5 of the Symbol Dawn of Savitri. "Here too the vision and prophetic gleam Lit into miracles common meaningless shapes; Then the divine afflatus, spent, withdrew, Unwanted, fading from the mortal’s range. A sacred yearning lingered in its trace, The worship of a Presence and a Power Too perfect to be held by death-bound hearts, The prescience of a marvellous birth to come." 'Here' stands for our ordinary human world where the vision and prophetic brief light of Goddess lit the ordinary shapes miraculously into divine meaning for few moments. But then the divine creative impulse or inspiration was spent and feeling unwanted withdrew and faded from the range of mortal men. Once gone it left behind a sacred yearning in the hearts of those later realized what had happened. The presence and Power of Divine Goddess was too perfect to be worshipped to be held steady by death-bound hearts of ordinary mortals. ...

Seeds of synthesis

Some of the seeds of synthesis I have discovered (experiments are ongoing to give fair consideration and enlighten ourselves) so far between sciences, religions, philosophies are listed below for the lovers of truth and wisdom - Synthesis of mathematics - Category theory (Grothendieck, Saunders Maclane) Synthesis of religions - Theosophy (Helena Blavatsky) (A mathematical expression of the law of Karma or cause and effect is in my thesis) Synthesis of philosophies and Human Knowledge itself - A treatise on seven rays (24 Books of Djwal Khul and Alice Bailey) Synthesis of pyschology - Psychosynthesis (Roberto Assagioli), Humanistic astrology and soul-centred psychology (Dane Rudhyar, Alan Oken) Synthesis of ancient systems of Yoga - Synthesis of Yoga (Sri Aurobindo),Auroville (Experiment of synthesising city), Agni Yoga (Nicholas and Helena Roerich) Synthesis of agriculture - Permaculture (Masanobu Fukuoka) Synthesis of signal representation - Functorial Signal Representation Synthesi...

The Yoga of Synthesis Diary Leaves 4

Album The Yoga of Synthesis Dated 22 January 2025 The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali give us four stages of meditation and when applied on symbols we find: 1. First, as the form is pondered upon, the realisation begins to dawn that it is but a symbol of an inner reality. 2. Second, there is a recognition of the quality or nature of the form—its subjective energy, the quality of the force that seems to flow through it, the emotion that the symbol arouses. 3. Third, as we concentrate on considering the quality, we arrive next at the purpose, the motive, and the idea that the symbol has held concealed. 4. Fourth, in the final stage of identification, one becomes at one with the symbol; one shares its quality; one participates in its purpose, and through these stages one arrives at a unity with the creator of the form. When applied to the four symbols (of Helena Blavatsky, Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, Alice Bailey, and the category-theoretic model of Cause-Meaning/Quality-Effect), we...
