Guiding Light of The Month

O Lord, how ardently do I call and implore Thy love! Grant that my aspiration may be intense enough to awaken the same aspiration everywhere: oh, may good- ness, justice and peace reign as supreme masters, may ignorant egoism be overcome, darkness be suddenly illu- minated by Thy pure Light; may the blind see, the deaf hear, may Thy law be proclaimed in every place and, in a constantly progressive union, in an ever more perfect harmony, may all, like one single being, stretch out their arms towards Thee to identify themselves with Thee and manifest Thee upon earth. - The Mother

Question of The Month


Q: You spoke of Sri Aurobindo’s birth as “eternal” in the history of the universal. What exactly was meant by “eternal”?

The sentence can be understood in four different ways on four ascending planes of consciousness:

Physically, the consequence of the birth will be of eternal importance to the world.
Mentally, it is a birth that will be eternally remembered in the universal history.
Psychically, a birth that recurs for ever from age to age upon earth.
Spiritually, the birth of the Eternal upon earth.
