A synthesis of Savitri and Theosophy - Painting No 11

 "Once more a tread perturbed the vacant Vasts;

Infinity’s centre, a Face of rapturous calm

Parted the eternal lids that open heaven;

A Form from far beatitudes seemed to near.

Ambassadress twixt eternity and change,

The omniscient Goddess leaned across the breadths

That wrap the fated journeyings of the stars

And saw the spaces ready for her feet.

Once she half looked behind for her veiled sun,

Then, thoughtful, went to her immortal work."



Note that Sri Aurobindo has always portrays the Godhead or Logos as feminine a Goddess or Shakti (being on Rays 2,4,6 which are soft mystic theosophy rays). Once again a march of the Goddess begins to disturbs the boundless spaces of inconscient as her divine form approaches for her immortal mission. She sits at the centre (representation of the Central Spiritual Sun) of an measureless heavenly abode, with an ecstatic calm. An all-seeing emissary amid change and eternity, She leans across the Vast spaces enfolding the destiny of the celestial bodies which have become ready to welcome her trod. A look in the opposite direction of enveloped (central) sun, She boldy goes on her mission of raising the inconscient matter into a radiant immortal Supermind consciousness (systematically through rounds and races on globes in the occult philosophy of theosophy). Huta sketches a calm rapturous face of the Goddess.

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...
