Meditation on Savitri - Sketch (1,3,4)

 Meditations on Savitri: Book 1: The Book of Beginnings,  Canto III: The Yoga of the Soul’s Release

 

"He sat in secret chambers looking out

Into the luminous countries of the unborn

Where all things dreamed by the mind are seen and true

And all that the life longs for is drawn close.

He saw the Perfect in their starry homes

Wearing the glory of a deathless form,

Lain in the arms of the Eternal’s peace,

Rapt in the heart-beats of God-ecstasy.

He lived in the mystic space where thought is born

And will is nursed by an ethereal Power

And fed on the white milk of the Eternal’s strengths

Till it grows into the likeness of a god.

In the Witness’s occult rooms with mind-built walls

On hidden interiors, lurking passages

Opened the windows of the inner sight.

He owned the house of undivided Time.

Lifting the heavy curtain of the flesh

He stood upon a threshold serpent-watched,

And peered into gleaming endless corridors,

Silent and listening in the silent heart

For the coming of the new and the unknown."


Sketch by The Mother guiding Huta on few of these lines with actual painting by the disciple Huta (Savita Devjibhai Hindocha).


A meditative experience: 

These lines give a magnificent picture of vale of bliss in yoga of synthesis. The yogi sitting in the secret chambers of a silent mystic heart, dreams of a luminous image of his true immortal self. There, the fiery will of an agni yogi is nursed by ethereal power and fed on the milk of it's strength and the yogi gets gradually transformed into his highest self. This self experiences eternal now (undivided time) hearing the voice of silence announcing the coming of a new era.

Aphorisms as seed-thoughts

 Subsequent to our discussion on seed-thoughts, another great example of seed-thouht I think is an aphorism. The complete agni-yoga series of books by Roerichs are aphorisms of Ethical living (and give Ray 1 flavour of fiery will to the yoga of synthesis). Similarly the temple aphorisms of Francia A. La Due give a Ray 5 flavour of occult science to the works of H.P. Blavatsky and William Q. Judge. We quote those aphorims (as seed-thoughts) from temple teachings of Master H. (with his image):  "Days come and days go, but if thou watchest thou shalt see: THE LOAD thou hast laid on the heart of a friend will God transfer to thine own heart; heavy as it presses on the heart of thy friend, heavier will it press on thine own heart in the days to come. THE STONE thou hast cast from the path of the blind will smite the adder lying in wait for thee. THE WEIGHT thou hast clamped on the feet of another will drag thine own feet into Hadean desolation. THE SHELTER thou hast given the wayfa...

A synthesis of Savitri and Theosophy - Painting No 9

 "A glamour from unreached transcendences Iridescent with the glory of the Unseen, A message from the unknown immortal Light Ablaze upon creation’s quivering edge, Dawn built her aura of magnificent hues And buried its seed of grandeur in the hours." An occult meditation with a theosophical perspective: In these lines, Sri Aurobindo renders a captivating mood of a magical Dawn. It has an allure of inaccessible supremacy and is glittering with Unseen glory. There appears to be a message from an eternal Light, on fire upon a shivering rim. A splendid atmosphere with glorious tones seems as if the Dawn has planted its seed of splendour that will sprout in hours into a majestic day. The painting attempts to reproduce that magical Dawn. As stated previously, a Dawn might refer to any general beginning, an illustration in theosophy being a manvantara (manu/Ray 1 + anatara/gap or distance) generally valid from a microcosm (atomic life) to a macrocosm (man, planet, solar system and s...

Esoteric astrology & psychology of Alexander Grothendieck part 1

A disciple from the inner ashram of Hilarion (Ray 5) I am trying to discern here energetic (seven rays) pattern in Grothendieck's esoterically challenging life through perspectives offered by Esoteric Astrology, Psychology and the Science of Seven Rays. The exoteric life details of this great disciple can be found on Grothendieck Circle Website, which will be the reference for the exoteric facts of this post. 1. Grothendieck (born in Germany) remained stateless throughout his life but choose to settle in a country (France) whose Soul Ray is fifth and Personality ray is Third reflecting his estimated ray profile through my research. 2. I hypothesize that Grothendieck subconsciously responded to energies from the Avatar of Synthesis by influencing the work of Saunders Maclane giving rise to a foundational branch (although he didn't give first definition of a category) of Mathematics called Category theory which is precisely the synthesis of entire mathematics (not yet fully ackno...
