Yoga of Synthesis: At the gateway of new Civilisation, Culture and Ideals of the Aquarian Age

Some Excerpts from Vicente Beltran Anglada : "There is, then, from this angle of view, a potential Artist in every spirit soul in Nature, from the tiny soul that informs the delicately perfumed flower to the resplendent Angel who cares for the preservation of the pristine forms which from the most hidden levels attempt to substantiate or materialise. Beauty, the innate sense of approach to the hidden Archetypes which are constantly seeking to manifest themselves, is the peculiar and characteristic Note of Nature, being Man, the being endowed with reason and sensibility and therefore with the greatest capacity for fulfilment, the only being within this magnificent Nature who alters the innate sense of Beauty and fills the vast field of his individual and communal realisations with hideous ugliness. Its work is thus desired, but at the same time feared, by the familiar Angels who watch over the evolution of the social environments of Humanity and whose special mission is to introduc...

 Jail of Material World: A gaol is this immense material world: Across each road stands armed a stone-eyed Law, At every gate the huge dim sentinels pace. A grey tribunal of the Ignorance, An Inquisition of the priests of Night In judgment sit on the adventurer soul, And the dual tables and the Karmic norm Restrain the Titan in us and the God: Pain with its lash, joy with its silver bribe Guard the Wheel’s circling immobility. Page 18, Savitri (A Legend, Symbol, the Mantric Epic of Sri Aurobindo), The Issue. In these lines Sri Aurobindo portrays a huge material world being like a jail.

The word 'Inquisition' means a court to question people about their beliefs with intolerance and cruelty where gloomy council of ignorant judges and dark ministers of religion sit cross-examining and judging a soul. A soul that is o...

 The intense fire and Flame of Savitri: A conscious frame was here, a self-born Force. In this enigma of the dusk of God, This slow and strange uneasy compromise Of limiting Nature with a limitless Soul, Where all must move between an ordered Chance And an uncaring blind Necessity, Too high the fire spiritual dare not blaze. If once it met the intense original Flame, An answering touch might shatter all measures made And earth sink down with the weight of the Infinite. Page 18, Savitri (A Legend, Symbol, the Mantric Epic of Sri Aurobindo), The Issue. How is Savitri different from an ordinary earthbound human ? She is a Force, a power in touch with higher planes of consciousness. Her mold is fully conscious and active. An ordinary earth life is mysterious puzzle difficult to solve. We are in a twilight of God, where the light of truth and darkness of ignorance are almost equally balanced. At our current stage in evolution, the material world is restricting to a limitless soul such a...
