– Self-Dynamising Meditation using Savitri and Huta Paintings
We continued our self-dynamising meditation viewing the Huta Paintings
of all the Cantos of Book 3 (‘The Book of the Divine Mother’) along with
Mother’s organ music and Her Voice. We continued our attempt to weave using the
threads of the last nine months of glimpses into a Spiritual fabric. This Book
provided us the perfect framework for aligning with the Future Poetry Jared is
navigating us through. Here we can discover the essence and secret of the whole
creation of which poetry is just a part.
This is an unending delight and even though we just managed to scratch
the surface, we were thrilled with the experience of the journey to the
transcendental world of The Absolute, The Supreme Mother and Her infinite
aspects including the Flame, the symbol OM, Satchidananda and The Godhead of
the Whole (Supermind and its comprehending (Unity) and apprehending
(multiplicity) aspects).
April 8th – The Future Poetry
Jared navigated us through the key points of Chapter 5:
Vision and The Mantra. The poetic vision, like everything else, follows
necessarily the evolution of the human mind and according to the age and
environment, it has its ascents and descents, its high levels and its low
returns. The eye of early man is turned upon the physical world about him. Next
there comes a period in which he feels the joy and curiosity and rich adventure
of the expanding life force within him. Afterwards he begins to intellectualise.
The poet can attempt to reveal unsuspected ranges and
motives and use the outward physical and vital and thought symbol only as a
suggestion of greater things. Yet a higher level can be attained, deeper
depths, larger horizons when the soul in things comes nearer to man or when
other worlds than the physical open themselves to him. And the entire
liberation of the poetic vision to see most profoundly and the poetic power to
do its highest work will arrive when the spiritual itself is the possession of
the greatest minds and the age stands on the verge of its revelation. We
enjoyed as Jared covered sample works of Homer, Shakespeare, Dante and our
Master highlighting the different levels of focus.
April 15th – A Talk by S K Sunil
S K Sunil from Pondicherry who is visiting Singapore
joined us on the morning walk, April 8th evening and April 15th evening. He
shared his experience in creating the Divine Plan diagram with detailed notes
as well his website www.sriaurobindo.love. He
walked us through our Master’s words on our Yoga:
“Renunciation of ego, acceptance of God in life
is the Yoga I teach, - no other renunciation. As the mind is a permanent state
of consciousness in humanity, so also we want to create a race in which the
supermind will be a permanent state of consciousness. Live always as if you
were under the very eye of the Supreme and of the Divine Mother. Do nothing,
try to think and feel nothing that would be unworthy of Divine Presence”.
