<div style="text-align: justify;">
We wish all our members and readers a very Happy New Year. In this special double-themed issue of our Newsletter, we contemplate awhile on the beginnings and existence of an institution conceptualised to actualise an important aspect intimate to the Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother - Education. The institution is none other than the Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education (SAICE), the first if its kind, closely run and directed by The Mother in the early days in order to practice and experiment with that kind of education that was meant for the man of the future; a man who is tuned to live the integral life on earth and create here centres of existence of a higher order; man aspirimg for the transformation of his nature and making it ready for the descent of the Divine in order to allow the Divine to manifest here in earthly life. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SAICE is a part of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram and therefore integrally linked with the practices of the integral yoga of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother. The Mother opened it first on the 2nd of December 1943. In 1951, The Mother called for a convention which resolved to establish the Sri Aurobindo International University Centre, which was renamed as the Sri Aurobindo International Centre for Education, in 1959. The school holds an average enrolment of 400. The children are exposed to the humanities, the sciences, Languages, Engineering Technology, and Physical Education. The centre offers facilities for drawing, painting, handiwork, music, dancing, dramatics, arts and crafts, libraries, laboratories and practical and manual work. This array of activities serve to expose children to a wide variety of skills as well as the opportunity to excel in any skill that he or she is inclined towards, during his course of study in the centre. Since the ethos of the centre points to self-discovery and perfection in as many parts and planes of the being as possible in order to facilitate the growth of a versatile personality, there are no external pressures in the guise of examinations, nor are the courses children choose meant for career opportunities. Children also do not face the stress of specialization since there is no need for specialization in the school. Notably, there are no degrees or diplomas or certificates. Above all, children of SAICE are led to understand that the true pursuit for them would be to discover their true purpose here and increase their perfectability through the training of all the faculties that make up the integral being. SAICE was never conceptualized as a regional or national body but an international one, where students of all cultures around the world find here their expression. There is much inspiration to be drawn from this centre of education with its multi-pronged experiments with life.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This newsletter edition also highlights The Mother’s words on the descent of the Superman and its significance, on the 1st of January 1969, exactly half a century ago. This is a must read for all of us who want to know even a little of the characteristics of Superman and the significance of that presence here. Through these words, let us be inspired to aspire for a progressive life as we march forward into the year of 2019.</div>

Return to the silence of the hills of God; <br />

As lightning leaps, as thunder sweeps, they pass <br />

And leave their mark on the trampled breast of Life. <br />

Above the world the world-creators stand, <br />

In the phenomenon see its mystic source. <br />

<em><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;">Sometime I would
like to know, Mother, Your intentions with regard to regrouping these classes
in the new year, whether with an examination or without.</span></em><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;">I consider an examination as quite
necessary. In any case there will be one in French.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;">It is not by conventional examinations
that students can be selected for a class. It is only by developing in oneself
the true psychological sense.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;"><br />
Select children who want to learn, not those who want to push themselves
forward.<em><span style="font-style: normal;"><o:p></o:p></span></em></span></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;">The only solution is to annul this test
and all that are to come. Keep all the papers with you in a closed bundle—as
something that has not been—and continue quietly your classes. At the end of
the year you will give notes to the students, not based on written test-papers,
but on their behaviour, their concentration, their regularity, their promptness
to understand and their openness of intelligence. For yourself you will take it
as a discipline to rely more on inner contact, keen observation, and impartial
outlook.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;">For the students it will be the
necessity of understanding truly what they learn and not to repeat as a parrot
what they have not fully understood. And thus a true progress will have been
made in the teaching.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;">I find tests an obsolete and ineffective
way of knowing if the students are intelligent, willing and attentive. A silly,
mechanical mind can very well answer a test if the memory is good and these are
certainly not the qualities required for a man of the future.<br />
It is by tolerance for the old habits that I consented that those who want
tests can have them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;">But I hope that in future this
concession will not be necessary. To know if a student is good needs, if the
tests are abolished, a little more inner contact and psychological knowledge
for the teacher. But our teachers are expected to do Yoga, so this ought not to
be difficult for them.<em><span style="font-style: normal;"><o:p></o:p></span></em></span></span></div>
<br />
<div align="right" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: right;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="color: #00000a;">Naturally the teacher has to test the
student to know if he or she has learnt something and has made a progress. But
this test must be individual and adapted to each student, not the same
mechanical test for all of them. It must be a spontaneous and unexpected test
leaving no room for pretence and insincerity. Naturally also, this is much more
difficult for the teacher but so much more living and interesting also. I
enjoyed your remarks about your students. They prove that you have an
individual relation with them—and that is essential for good teaching. Those
who are insincere do not truly want to learn but to get good marks or
compliments from the teacher—they are not interesting.<em><span style="font-style: normal;"><o:p></o:p></span></em></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The history of the Ashram school – now known as the International Centre of Education – can be probably divided into four periods. The first period is from 1943 to 1950, the second one is from 1951 to 1958, the third is from 1959 to 1967 and the fourth one is the period after that.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />This article will deal mainly with the third period – that is to say from 1959 to 1967. However, the first two periods will be briefly touched upon.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before the 1940s children were, as a rule, not permitted to live in the Ashram. But when, during the war, a number of families were admitted, it was found necessary to initiate a course of instruction for the children. Consequently, on 2 December 1943 the Mother opened a school for about thirty children. She herself was one of the teachers. The number of children increased gradually over the years to around 150 by the year 1950.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first striking feature of the school in those early days was that almost all the students were children of devotees or disciples, most of whom resided in the Ashram as sadhaks.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another feature was that the Mother was in constant touch with the teachers and students, guiding the teachers and following the students’ progress. All students and teachers would meet Her at least once a day and the teachers would submit reports about their classes regularly. Sri Aurobindo too was kept informed of all the developments in the school, although he did not interact directly with the school.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On 2 December 1946, the Mother came for the first time to the playground to see the demonstration of Physical Education. From then onwards, the Mother started coming regularly to the Playground in the evenings.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In 1950, Sri Aurobindo left his body and from 1951 the Mother started taking classes in the playground for the children (known as the Wednesday and Friday classes).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On 24 April 1951 the Mother presided over a convention where it was resolved to establish an “international university centre”, and on 6 January 1952 she inaugurated the Sri Aurobindo International University Centre. In 1959 this was changed to the Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In December 1958 the Mother stopped coming to the playground on a regular basis and the classes too were stopped.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first two periods from 1943 to 1958 may be called the luminous seed-time and a period of enthusiastic effort guided by the direct presence of the Mother. That was the time when most of the basic ideas and concepts on education were expounded by the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. This was done through the classes, their interaction with the students and teachers and Their writings in the Bulletin. As a matter of fact, the Mother was constantly in touch with both students and teachers and intervened whenever She felt the need to do so.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, the outward organisation was not too different from other schools. No doubt, the teachers and the administration were distinctly aware of what the Mother wanted but this was not translated in the organisational structure. The Mother’s direct presence and involvement obviated the need of any such organisational structure. She was there to look after everything in its smallest detail.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even though, the Mother stopped coming to the playground on a regular basis from December 1958, contact with Her continued through letters or through interviews. Indeed, the Mother kept a constant watch over the school and playground activities from Her room.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
During this period, 1959-1967, certain experiments were made which were to have a great bearing on the future development of the Centre of Education.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Firstly, some tentative experiments were made in organising the Free System of education with a small section of students and certain organisational structures were put in place; all these attempts were gradually evolving and were to prove very useful in arriving at the more developed and organised system that was built later on.</div>

1<sup>st</sup> January 1969, as compiled by the writer.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
</span></div>
<span lang="EN-GB">
</span><br />
<br />
<i><span lang="EN-GB">50 years ago, on the morning of 1
January 1969, a powerful New Consciousness descended into the earth atmosphere.
The Mother described it in Notes on the Way, pp.148-160. The following are some
extracts. <o:p></o:p></span></i><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i><span lang="EN-GB">1
January 1969 </span></i><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">In the night it came slowly and on waking
up this morning, there was as though a golden dawn, and the atmosphere was so
light. The body felt: “Well, it is truly, truly new.” A golden light,
transparent and... benevolent. “Benevolent” in the sense of a certainty — a
harmonious certainty. It was new. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">There you are. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">And when I say “<i>Bonne année</i>” to
people, it is this which I pass on to them. And this morning, I have passed my
time like this, spontaneously, saying: “<i>Bonne année, Bonne année</i>.” So...
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;">4 January 1969 <o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">On the first, something truly strange
happened.... And I was not the only one to feel it, some others also have felt
it. It was just after midnight, but I felt it at two o’clock and the others at
four o’clock in the morning…It was something very material, I mean it was very
external — very external—and it was luminous, with a golden light. It was very
strong, very powerful; but even so, its character was a smiling benevolence, a
peaceful delight and a kind of opening out into delight and light. And it was
like a “<i>Bonne année</i>”, like a greeting. It took me by surprise…But I told
you a word or two about it and I spoke of it also to two or three persons: they
all had felt it. That is to say, it was <i>very </i>material. They all had felt
it, like this, a kind of joy, but a joy friendly, powerful and... oh! very,
very gentle, very smiling, <i>very benevolent.... </i>I do not know what it is.
I do not know what it is, but it is a kind of benevolence, therefore it was
something very close to the human. And it was so concrete, so concrete!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">My
own impression was that of an immense personality — immense, that is to say,
for it the earth was small, small like this (<i>gesture, as though holding a
small ball in her palm</i>), like a ball — an immense personality, very, very
benevolent, which came for... (<i>Mother seems to lift this ball gently from
the hollow of her hands</i>). It gave the impression of a personal divinity
(and yet it was... I do not know) who comes to help, and so strong, so strong
and at the same time so gentle, so all- embracing. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">And it was very external: the body felt it
everywhere, everywhere (<i>Mother touches her face, her hands</i>), everywhere.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">It was luminous, smiling, and so
benevolent <i>through powerfulness</i>; that is to say, generally in the human
being benevolence is something a little weak, in this sense that it does not
like battle, it does not like fight; but this is nothing of the kind! A
benevolence that imposes itself (<i>Mother brings her fists down upon the arms
of her chair</i>). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">It has interested me because it is
altogether new. And so concrete! Concrete like this (<i>Mother touches the arms
of her chair</i>), like what the physical consciousness usually considers as
“others”, concrete like that. That is to say, it did not pass through an inner
being, through the psychic being, it came <i>directly </i>upon the body. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">What is it?... Yes, perhaps it is this...
Since it came, the feeling of the body is a kind of certitude, a certitude as
though now it was no longer in anxiety or uncertainty to know: “What will it
be? What will the Supramental be like? <i>Physically</i>, what will it be
physically?” The body used to ask itself. Now it does not think of it any more,
it is contented. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<i><span lang="EN-GB">Is it something that will suffuse the
bodies that are ready? </span></i><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Yes, I believe so, yes. I have the feeling
that it is the formation which is going to enter, going to express itself — to
enter and express itself — in the bodies... that will be the bodies of the
supramental. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Or perhaps... perhaps the superman (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="color: black;">surhomme<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">)</b></span></i>, I do not know. The
intermediary between the two. Perhaps the superman: it was very human, but a
human in divine proportions, I must say. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">A human without weaknesses and without
shadows: it was all light — all light and smiling and... sweetness at the same
time. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Yes, perhaps the superman. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<i><span lang="EN-GB">8 January 1969 </span></i><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">It is the descent of the superman consciousness

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">It was the first of January after
midnight. I woke up at two in the morning, surrounded by a consciousness, so
concrete, and <i>new </i>in the sense that I had never felt it before. And it
lasted, absolutely concrete, present, for two or three hours, and afterwards it
spread out and went about to find people who could receive it. And I knew that
it was the consciousness of the superman (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">la
<span style="color: black;">surhomme<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">)</b></span></i>,
that is to say, the intermediary between man and the supramental being. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />

<i><span lang="EN-GB">18 January 1969 </span></i><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">It came as a “mentor”, it was <i>practical</i>,
quite practical: “This thing must be rejected, that must be accepted; this must
be made general, that...”; all the inner movements. And it even becomes very
material in the sense that it says with regard to some vibrations: “This you
must encourage”, to others: “That must be canalised”, to others again: “This
must be removed.” Little indications like that. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">…Well, I have first had the experience for
this body: it came like a rampart, and it was mighty! It was a mighty power!
Altogether out of proportion to the apparent action. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">…There is a very marked change in those
who have been touched on the first of January: it is particularly... indeed a
precision and a certitude that has entered into their way of thinking. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">It was there (<i>Mother looks at the
region of the heart</i>). It is curious, as though I was given the charge of
putting it into contact with all those who come near me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Never, never had the body been so happy;
there was the complete Presence, absolute freedom, and a certitude…During these
few hours (three or four), I understood absolutely what it was to have the
divine consciousness in the body…<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">But that state, which lasted for several
hours, nothing similar to that happiness has this body ever felt during the
ninety-one<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>years it has been here upon
earth: freedom, absolute power and no limits (<i>gesture here and there,
everywhere</i>), no limits, no impossibilities, nothing. It was... all other
bodies were itself. There was no difference, it was only a play of
consciousness (<i>gesture as of a great Rhythm</i>) going about. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">It is something very strange, all the
qualities and all the defects of man appear as childishness — foolishness. It
is curious. And it is not a thought, it is a concrete sensation. It is like a
substance without life; all ordinary things are like a substance lacking life —
the <i>true </i>life. Artificial and false. It is strange. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">The special character of this new
consciousness is: no half measures, no approximations. That is its character.
The idea “Oh yes, we shall do it, and little by little we...” — no, no, not
like that; it is Yes or No, either you can or you cannot. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB">But this tremendous Power, it is that
above all; and it is with a compassion! a gentleness!... No, there are no
words, we have no words to describe that, something... Nothing but just to be
attentive and... it is blissfulness. Nothing but just to turn one’s attention
towards that side, immediately there is the bliss. And I understand (that has
made me understand certain things), we have heard of people who in the midst of
torture enjoyed bliss — it is like that. A beatitude. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">“<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">There must be, first the effort towards at
least an initial and enabling self-transcendence and contact with the Divine;
next, the reception of that which transcends, that with which we have gained
communion, into ourselves for the transformation of our whole conscious being;

world.</i>”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">December 5<sup>th</sup> – Sri Aurobindo’s
Mahasamadhi Day<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">We gathered in our
centre premises to observe the occasion of Sri Aurobindo’s Mahasamdhi Day. The
main part of the programme was the reading of senior sadhak’s accounts of the
last few days of Sri Aurobindo’s passing and the significance of the Mahasamdhi.
We read first an excerpt from Amal Kiran’s, ‘The Passing of Sri Aurobindo – Its
inner Significance and Consequence’. We read of the astrologer who predicted
the year when Sri Aurobindo would see to his “self-undoing”, and Sri
Aurobindo’s nonchalant response, though he did indicate that the astrologer was
partialy correct in his predictions; his ‘strange’ display of affection to the
attendants around him; and his sudden interest in hurrying up with Savitri, and
in his own words, “I must finish Savitri soon.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Amal Kiran accords significance to the passing of Sri Aurobindo. Here is
an excerpt from the excerpt, “Everything foes to prove that what happened in
the small hours of that December day was no purely physical casualty…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Following this, we read an excerpt from Nirodbaran’s
account of the passing of Sri Aurobindo titled, Sri Aurobindo “I am here, I am
here!”. The events that specifically took place on the 4<sup>th</sup> of
Decemebr to the 5<sup>th</sup><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and then
to the 9<sup>th</sup> were graphically brought before our minds’ eye. Here are
some poignant lines from this reading, “The news spread around in the early
hours of the morning. The reaction of the disciples can be better imagined than
described. Through the hush of night one by one they came and mounted up the
stairs of Heaven to see what nobody had seen before. It was not eath they saw,
not a resurrection, nor a withdrawal into Nirvana but a grand repose, a death
pulsating with power, light, beauty in every limb as if death had become
immortal in the body of the King of kings.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">We then read words of The Mother written on the
significance of the Mhasamadhi of Sri Aurobindo. One such satatement from The
Mother was:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">“We stand in the Presence of Him who has sacrificed
his physical life in order to help more fully his work of transformation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">He
is always with us, aware of what we are doing, of all our thoughts, of all our
feelings and all our actions.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">We concluded the session with readings from Savitri,
from Book 1, Canto IV: The Secret Knowledge, <o:p></o:p></span></div>

sessions, Jared brought us through the life of Huta with The Mother, especially
in being Her instrument in bringing out the essence and spirit of Savitri, the
epic poem by Sri Aurobindo in the Art form. Huta started her journey with The
Mother into Savitri on her birthday, on 1<sup>st</sup> September 1961. The
Mother herself initiated her into this journey of representing Savitri in lines
and colours, making it clear to Huta that The Mother alone would do all the
work and she will only be a docile instrument in the hands of The Mother. Each
day, she met The Mother twice, once before noon and then in the evening to show
Her the work done and receiving feedback and instructions for corrections. The
Mother worked with Huta from another plane and Huta responded. She relates in
the book her trials and tribulations, attacks and struggles and how The Mother
kept watch over Her and brought her along the journey to complete the work She
had given her on her birthday in 1961. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">It was a beautiful cool and windy
morning when we all assembled at Punggol Point for our penultimate walk of 2018
at Coney Island. It was also a very special walk as it marked our 400th walk uninterrupted
over the many years we have been organizing it.</span><br />
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">With all the fast development
happening in Singapore, it affected our arrival at the meeting point slightly,
as the original Punggol Road was closed to traffic and those driving had to
take a new road to get there delaying them by 10 -15 mins. No problems with
those taking the bus and taxi there as the bus routes were changed and the taxi
drivers probably knew about it. How quickly change is happening here in
Singapore but Punggol Point and Coney Island still look the same as before,
preserving some of the memories we have of the place.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">We started off with a decent
sized group of walkers of around 17 and more joined later on making it close to
25. It was indeed gratifying for our walk commander, Uncle Ramanathan to see
this given the great effort he puts into making sure these walks happen. We did
some warmups led by Uncle Sheel and took the mandatory pictures and wefies.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">As we headed out onto Coney
Island, we were ably led by our walk leaders of the day, Ananya and Deepika who
showed us the way to walk along the various paths. I remember Coney Island also
known as Pulau Serangoon as a youth when we had to canoe from Pulau Ubin to
this deserted island for a quick rest stop and then canoe back. Nothing here
then but white sands to lay on and trees to give us the much needed shade from
the harsh sun. Over the years, it has been transformed into a park where people
can walk, run or cycle onto it through two bridges on either side of the island
linking it to Singapore.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">During the walk, Venkat
interviewed Uncle Krishnamurthy about his experience with the walks, as he had
been in Singapore since Walk No. 16 I believe and recorded it for all of us to
hear. Something truly great to listen to his experiences and definitely one for
our archives.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">It was a good and interesting
walk in the nature and we returned back to Punggol Point to assemble again for
organizing the transportation to Ritesh and Upali's place for meditation and
brunch.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">The atmosphere was befitting a
400th walk. We had our normal meditation and announcements but also had added
special items like a poem recitation by Kiran Sule's sister, mantrams from
Sudha who was visiting from Pondicherry, Jayshree, Uncle Krishnamurthy and Uncle
Ramanathan, ending with the Om Choir lead by Preethi. Of course, not
forgetting the sumptuous brunch arranged by the hosts, Ritesh and Upali for all
of us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">All in all a wonderful 400th walk
and we have to thank the participants on this walk and especially the hosts
Ritesh and Upali for making it such a memorable one for all of us. Looking
forward to our walks in 2019. Wishing one and all a happy and prosperous New
Year ahead.</span></div>

turned up for the walk. The walk started at Punggol Settlement. The weather was
perfect with a breezy atmosphere during our warm up exercises. It was a great

sister, Deepika and I were very energetic as we were assigned leaders for the
walk. Deepika led the way along the boardwalk towards Coney Island. While
taking pictures of the surroundings, I was enjoying the view of the South China
Sea. Behind us, our grandfather, Mr. C. Krishnamurthy, was giving an account on
his experiences on his first walk after he arrived in Singapore in 1980. This
was recorded by Mr. S. Venkat and was circulated in our SAS WhatsApp group.</span></div>

we admired the scenery, we thought of going to the Promenade to see the other
end of Coney Island and we were greeted by the sight of huge ships. As I saw
the beauty of nature and the calm sea, love for it engulfed over me. Coney
island was so huge that we could have got lost. Luckily none of us got marooned
on the Island.</span></div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On the morning of 22 December 2018, an enthusiastic group of 14, with 4 bubbly children and one baby and 9 adults attempted the Big Walk, starting at MacRitchie Reservoir Park and culminating on our Bukit Timah Hill, after perhaps more than a decade. The four children, Anjali, Ananya, Sophia and Deepika have written a review on the walk. </div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;">Rekindling the spirit of
being fit was a big thing this December in the Sri Aurobindo Society, Singapore.
On top of the monthly short walk, a few society members got together and did a
14 km walk through the parks and hiking trails of Singapore. The route went
from Macritchie Reservoir, through the forest hiking trails and ended at the
top of Bukit Timah hill where we had a picnic lunch.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #222222; mso-ansi-language: EN-SG; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Previously, the society had been doing long
walks annually, but, due to a few changes, the tradition had been lost. This
was the first walk after 10 years and was enjoyed by everyone who came.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; mso-ansi-language: EN-SG; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">In those who walked, I observed two different
kinds of people. There were the children, who ran ahead, laughing and chatting
with each other and the adults who walked slowly behind, but almost never got
tired. Joining us this time, for half the walk, was even a 18 month old baby! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

muddy paths and easy flat roads, we saw a variety of flora and fauna such as
monkeys and squirrels. The monkeys were playing on the streets. The climb up
Bukit Timah hill was challenging as we had to walk up a steep slope and we were
tired from the long walk. However, we persevered and made it to the top, while
taking a few breaks along the way.</span></span></div>

Reservoir to Bukit Timah Hill.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="color: #222222; mso-ansi-language: EN-SG; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">After being well rested and re energised, we
decided to head back down. We took different paths to see if they would lead
back to the same destination. While the adults took the road, the children were
determined to challenge themselves and took the rocky, muddy path. </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #222222; mso-ansi-language: EN-SG; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> </span></div>

realised that we had met a dead end. So, we had to head back and take another
path leading us back to the road. We then ran down the steep slope and finally
met the others at the end. </span></span></span><br />

“This day” had arrived and
knocked on Savitri’s door. In a brief 5-paged canto, ‘Death in the Forest’, Sri
Aurobindo brings us through the culmination of Savitri’s year-long ordeal.
“This day returning”, Satyavan dies. In that one brief year, Savitri herself
has progressed in her consciousness. We saw her inner greatness come up to the
surface and doing its work of transformation. She now was a changed being,
illumined by the knowledge of her innermost world, enriched largely by her
identification with the Divine portion in her, the Psychic as well as her
alignment with the higher worlds of Light above her. Even so, she suffered in
her heart the pang of Satyavan’s impending death. Sri Aurobindo paints a
graphic representation of the last earthly moments Satyavan and Savitri spend
together. It is as intense as the agony and pang suffered by her. One sees the
brave soul, Savitri, fronting it all, alone, unknown to others. What strength
must be hers! When she sought the permission of Satyavan’s mother to walk into
the forest with Satyavan for the last time before be would be slain by dire
fate,<o:p></o:p></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">One often faces in day to day life situations
such as these, though usually of a far lesser magnitude, where one is besieged
by the urge to be transparent opposed with the need to be opaque. However, Savitri appears clear in this ‘conflict’. She
is probably convinced of a greater good. She seemed to be buying time. </span>So
too did she watch over Satyavan, watching over his every move with an
intensity, all concealed within her. Not once did she let loose the weight of
what she was carrying within her. Not once did Satyavan suspect what was amiss
in her heavy heart within. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Another poignant passage in this
canto was when Satyavan wielded his axe for the third time and he fell, himself
stricken by the axe of Death. The moment she dreaded comes before her, but now,
Savitri showed her true self of power:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="NoSpacing1">
<i><span lang="EN-SG" style="font-family: "times new roman";">All grief and fear were dead within her
now
<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="NoSpacing1">
<i><span lang="EN-SG" style="font-family: "times new roman";">And a great calm had fallen. The wish to
lessen
<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="NoSpacing1">
<i><span lang="EN-SG" style="font-family: "times new roman";">His suffering, the impulse that opposes
pain<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="NoSpacing1">
<i><span lang="EN-SG" style="font-family: "times new roman";">Were the one mortal feeling left. It
passed: <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="NoSpacing1">
<i><span lang="EN-SG" style="font-family: "times new roman";">Griefless and strong she waited like the
gods.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
And we see another side of
Savitri from hence; an epitome of still, godly strength she sat. The real task
for which she came was about to begin; she was poised, and ready.</div>

<span style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">This is clearly an earlier draft of the poem, not
fully brought in tune with the new inspiration. The opening canto itself, after
describing 'The Symbol Dawn, refers to Savitri awaking among the forest tribes
and hastening "to join the brilliant Summoner's chant", and the
second canto states that "twelve passionate months led in a day of
fate"; thus Book VIII almost harks back to Book I, mentions the same
details though from a rather lesser height of poetic inspiration, before
continuing the story. In the present version we have the bare bones of the
Mahabharata story transformed into the flesh and blood of a spacious narrative
poem like Urvasie and Love and Death of Sri Aurobindo's Baroda period; what is
lacking in Book VIII is the epic amplitude, the luminous extravagant richness,
the cosmic overtones and the more or less consistent overhead inspiration
behind the rest of the poem.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">After a moment of silent prayer before the image of
the Goddess Durga, Savitri approaches 'the pale queen mother', asks her permission
to accompany her son, Satyavan, to the forest. During her year's life with
Satyavan, Savitri hasn't once explored the silences of the great forest with
him, and might she not this day go with him and satisfy her longing? The
queen-mother readily consents, and so "the doomed husband and the
woman" go out with linked hands "into that solemn world".
Satyavan shows her,<o:p></o:p></span></div>

remember Dr Mangesh Nadkarni using these lines as invocation to the Divine
Mother before his wonderful talks. In the words of Dr Prema Nandakumar, the
prayer in these lines are the same as Devi Mahatmyam. For the new generation
alien to traditional chanting, these passages are revelatory. The following
lines taken from Completed Works of Sri Aurobindo. She, the Divine Mother,
stands at the head of Time, She is the luminous heart of the Unknowable. All
Nature calls to her alone. She is the Way and She is the Goal. Her rapture
fills the limbs of Aswapathy; all his seekings are fulfilled in Her. He
realises, however, that his single freedom cannot satisfy him. He asks for Her
light and bliss for all earth and men. He is aware that his own strength is
inadequate for this purpose and he surrenders all of himself to Her so that Her
vast Power can act and fill the finite with the Infinite, bring Her healing
touch of Love, Truth and Joy into the suffering world. He gives his freed soul
to her and her alone. Standing above She controls the cycles of birth, labour
and fate and also alone can alter the mighty foundations of inexorable TIME. Being
the Silent power in depths and also luminous core and force She effectuates the
joy, adventure and the light on the life on earth. We are yet to get the full
Might of Her on the earth. Nature Herself being the Divine Mother’s another
form dumbly calls to her to break the seals that keep the soul of man in
obscurity. One day all here shall be the home of her felicity. All the present
contraries are really preparing in their clash the advent of her harmony. Our
knowledge climbs up to her, our passion gropes towards her; what is pain now
shall be transmuted by her clasp into ecstasy and in that miraculous rapture we
shall dwell. When our life becomes one with her it gets transformed into her
superlife and gets established in her; then is it fulfilled and then it
discovers the still vasts of bliss above and the wondrous clasp of the Divine everywhere
on earth here below. This Knowledge flashes to Aswapathy and the rapture of the
immortal invades his being. His senses are overcome by bliss and lie amazed.
His spirit is seized by the conquering flame of the Divine Mother. Once he has
seen her, his heart acknowledges her alone as its sovereign. Only the devouring
hunger of the boundless bliss remains; all his previous aims merge in her and
then find themselves in her. His whole foundation gathers into a single high
pointing cone.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

prayer becomes a more meaningful one when the essence of this passage
assimilated in our being. Though our prayers start with asking the Divine for
some material things, over the time it takes a much higher step where we enjoy
the prayer with motiveless devotion. Then the devotion paves the path to
relation with the Divine as our Father, Mother, Friend or Guru.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Aurobindo gives a very clear picture of What is real renunciation. He gives a
very beautiful analogy of how we are stuck in a web of “I ness” and “myness”
like a spider which hates to be transplanted in another web though it gives a
fresh view points and formations! He says that if our seeking for Divine works
and divine delight is sincere, we should cut asunder the snare of mind and the
senses, any intellectual thought system and even the religious dogmas. With lot
of Self Will with Sri Aurobindo and The Mother’s grace, we should be able climb
a few steps in this ladder of freedom which renunciation gives.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-SG" style="font-size: 11.5pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-SG; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">Thanks
to Mr Jared for introducing us to this eye opening truth about ourselves. The
first 4 passages we read shows how we are struck with automated mechanism of
running our life. Right now the individual and social life is run by two
complementary powers. First the inherent will in us takes over the functions of
physical and vital beings fulfilling its needs to persistence, growth,
expansion and enjoyment etc......<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The partner
of this instinctive will is the will of mind in man to give constant
orientation and personal identity. Now the “Buddhi” that is the intellect power
in the will of mind should seek the answer to what is our business on this
earth. Is it only enjoying and suffering and dying? Or can it find a better
purpose finding the seed of divinity concealed behind the coating of our lower
nature?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sri Aurobindo says that when this secret seed
of divinity is discovered and delivered, luminous above the mind, the wide
ground upon which a divine life of human being can be with security founded! Right
now the idea of superman is abnormal or supernormal to our present nature. The
human mind in us very much at ease and happy with mechanical cycle of this life
and is not ready to be pulled out to receive a more perfect life and become
half god. Abnormality in nature is not to be deplored since it paves way for
immense vista of self-development like from animal to man and man to superman.
Though it seems like a arduous labour of growth, splendid crown of victory is
at the end! Reading these passages is like chanting mantras to elevate
ourselves to a higher level to reach the goal, what Sri Aurobindo and The
Mother has prescribed for the present human kind.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Some information about the
park...<b><o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Chestnut Nature Park is the
Singapore’s largest nature park. Found along the western edge of the Central
Catchment Nature Reserve, Chestnut Nature Park is Made Up of Two Parts Chestnut
Nature Park consists of Chestnut Nature Park (North) and Chestnut Nature Park
(South). The southern portion of the Park opened in April 2016 while the north
section of the Park opened in February 2017. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The north section of the Park is
approximately four times the size of the south section of the park. It starts off
with a paved road before becoming a meandering walk along an
almost-cobbled-stone pavement, and then a dirt track. The Northern Trail
is an enjoyable trail to explore. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The Southern Trail is the “Rocky
Trail”. A characteristic of the Southern Trail is the rocky granite
boulders that dot the trail. The rocky terrain is contrasted by sections of the
trail that lead across fields of <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">lalang</span> the
height of a man. It was amazing to see such a forest kind of park just behind
the Petir Road lined with so many highrise buildings. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Since regular members could come
on time, with warming up exercise lead by our dear Anju, we started the walk. I
really feel blessed to be part of our Sri Aurobindo Society. I not only get to
spend some spiritual time at the Center on Sunday evenings but also the first
Sunday of the month walk with our society members in these gardens is
truly beautiful; that leaves me feeling very peaceful and at one with the
splendours of nature. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Thanks to Mr Ramanathan
for taking time and effort to spot these gems of Nature and lead us in the
trails. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I get to walk along with
different groups depending on my pace. This time my walk with Jayanthi
Ramanathan was really enlightening. Every other step she picked up some
beautiful flowers and gave me the spiritual significance Mother gave for it. I
was amazed at her '<span lang="HI" style="font-family: "Nirmala UI","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Nirmala UI"; mso-bidi-language: HI;">परिपूर्ण</span>'<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(Plenary)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>bhakti for Sri Aurobindo and The Mother. We found a lot of Nagalinga or
Shiva <b>Linga</b> trees.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In
Hindi, it is also called Shiv Kamal or Kailaspati., or Nagalingam in Tamil. In
English, it is known as Cannonball tree. The flower name in English is<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Couroupita guianensis whose spiritual
significance Mother gave was Prosperity - Remains only with him who offers it
to the divine. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I felt the park can be
renamed as Cannonball Park instead of Chestnut Park after seeing so many
cannonball trees.<o:p></o:p></div>

Kaurav Pandav Flower --
Passiflora incarnata<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Another very rare flower we found
was Kaurav Pandav Flower. Spiritual significance given by Mother for this
flower - Silence, The ideal condition for progress, Rich, profound, multiple. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Mother Nature just stole our
hearts with her beauty in different types of trees, foliage and flowers. We
also had to focus on the pebbled path way and slippery path filled with
littered leaves. On the lighter note, Singapore government levies no fine for
these trees which litters so heavily. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
After the walking Tapasya in the
Chestnut forest Park, we arrived at our hosts’ - Mr Kiran Sule and family –
home. It was a very divine delight being with such dedicated sadhaks of Sri
Aurobindo and the Mother. Mr Kiran gave a summary of certain cantos in Savitri
on how Aswapathy’s tapas brought Divine Mother Savitri to descend on the Earth.
We were amazed at his memorising many cantos of Savitri and it flowed like Ganga

We were wonderstruck by the array

Preeti and her cousin were giving finishing touches to the celebratory dishes

<div style="text-align: justify;">
In this November edition of our Newsletter, we continue on our journey with Savitri on the quest for the deepest, most resplendent in her. She is seeking for her soul and is well on the way, having met the triple soul forces and given them her word that she would return with the Force, Wisdom and Light so that they may manifest their true selves in the life of the now embodied being who knows not yet the truth of herself. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So “Onward she passed seeking the soul’s mystic cave.” She was at the threshold where the next journey into the soul-space began. Here too there was a pitch darkness she encounters but the truth is that dawn breaks out only when the night is darkest. Here is a message for us, and the truth in the words that urge us to cling on, and that, it is only when all seems down, gone and finished that a ray of hope steals in, announcing its end and promising the light beyond that announces its end. Here too, she comes face to face with symbolic figures and motives, and divines the nearness of the Truth of her being, her Soul. The path to her soul is not easy, as made out by the imagery used by Sri Aurobindo. Rock after dense and hard rock has to be excavated as Savitri makes her way within, heading towards a ‘rock cave’ where probably the resplendent Light she is looking for is kept hidden, awaiting her arrival into that chamber of Light. And Savitri does arrive therein after a challenging journey, it seems, only because she bore in her a quiet resolution and probably knew at that point that it was this or nothing. The revelation spins forward in her being a transformative force which courses through her nerve and tissue and brings about a change in her fringing on divinity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Reading the lines in, ‘The Finding of the Soul’ in its self offers golden opportunities of contemplation; Words, other than those from Savitri, will be poor conveyers of the protagonist’s experience as well as ours following the thread of the magnitude of what is presented. One could gain from the canto in any which way; one could take it as a wonderful poetic description of Savitri’s journey, an aesthetically pleasing experience, or in knowing all the inner elements not so obvious to the eye of our own experiences, or listen the lines speaking to our inner ear, urging and guiding one to look within too, and embark on such an immaculate journey. It could be that each of us will live the lines in that way which our own point in evolution dictates. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Is there a Savitri in us too? And who is Savitri? She is after all the daughter of the Sun, the Light Supreme. Is this daughter of the Sun seeking her radiance out now, having forgotten her lineage through the shock of her re-birth in human time and form? Here we have Savitri set out on a journey to seek her Self, to know it as the raison d’etre so that she could exist in and from that Truth. Life had thrown her into this quest, it appears, at that juncture when she realised that she stood to lose everything that she cherished and gave meaning to her life till then – Satyavan. It is this supreme spirit in her that does not quit when faced with adversity, but looks for another truer platform to stand on and proclaim her divinity and act from that. Simply mind blowing and highly inspirational for any spiritual seeker, reading and re-reading the canto plunges one into oceans of ecstasy at the mere realization of all the possibilities that await one, if only one plunges within. </div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">The long night's journey into
day is over; Savitri has explored the inner countries of the spirit, much as a
modern visitor to one of the big temples in South India might explore
concentric courts, the prākārās, the numerous shrines within, the statues of
the minor gods and goddesses and the bhaktas and the god-intoxicated, the
paintings on the walls and the sculptured pillars and walls reproducing scenes
from epic and purana, the cosmic play and the tāndav dance, and moving from
sacred enclosure to another enclosure, always moving within, observing the
vāhanās, being enraptured by the ritual, the swaying of the lights and the
chanting of hymns, dazzled by the bejewelled gold-shaped outer manifestations
of the deity and his consort, and penetrating at long last to the ultimate
sanctum, the innermost home of the deity, and receiving the ineffable impact of
the 'mystical tremendum', the blaze of the total truth that blinds, the shower
of the Grace that cleanses; Savitri has at last seen and grown into her secret
Soul. She is now back in the world of man, the same yet different; she is
filled with the glory and power of God, and all in her have undergone a
"high celestial change"; and henceforth her every act will be
"an act of god". Head, brows, throat, heart, navel, all coiled petals
of the unfolding bud of this lotus flame have received the impress of new
divinity, and in the apparently human mould of Savitri "a first
perfection's stage is reached at last":<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-SG">Earlier,
through our deep voyage into the unknowable, (Book 3, ‘The Book of the Divine
Mother’), over several months, we were trying to form an idea of the infinite
powers of our Divine Mother in our minds; all these are like the Silent witness
behind everything, experiencing the marvel of the dynamism of the diversifying
and integrating Spirit; it is as if this unfathomable Consciousness-Force, has
kindled in us a mystic flame of pure Love of aspiration, silently creating
a need behind our hearts to experience Aswapati's Boon: “… one shall
descend and break the iron law, Change Nature’s doom by the lone Spirit’s
power”. This has led us to explore and experience this All powerful Savitri,
at the conclusion of Her yoga, through the Canto 6 (Nirvana and the Discovery
of the All-Negating-Absolute) and 7 (Omnipresent Reality and the Discovery of
the All-Fulfilling Godhead) of Book 7: The Book of Yoga. It is now an
invitation to view the experience not only of the Spirit's view on the Silent
Force behind but also to integrate these two views (of one looking at the
other) to reach the MahaShaktit dynamising the Absolute. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-SG">This
month, when we took a deeper dive into Canto 6, we were reminded of 'The Issue'
(Book 1, Canto 2): "An Absolute Supernatural darkness falls on man, when
he nears God ..... That hour had fallen on Savitri". What we think as
naught (zero) is actually unmanifest infinity; the seeming falsehood, ignorance,
division, evil, incapacity, hatred, finite-view, commotion, ugliness,
time-trap, disharmony and suffering hide behind the Divine Substance as Occult
clay as Truth, Knowledge, Unity, Goodwill, Power, Love, Infinity, Silence,
Beauty, Eternity, Peace and Delight. We seem to constantly fight the cross
currents by taking either the side of the Spirit or Matter: Outside VS Inside,
Liberty VS Fraternity, Time VS Timelessness, Form VS Content, Personal VS
Impersonal, Head VS Heart, Profit VS Purpose etc; we can all embrace the
paradox of integrating both the sides and enjoy the powers of Savitri, The
Mahashakti.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Aim and Life<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">Sri Aurobindo gives us a clear understanding that true aim of the spiritual society is for
the soul incarnated in the human body to fulfil its diviner purpose rather than
succumbing to just the satisfaction of physical, vital and emotional well being
or to flee away to its freedom from the diseased prone body.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">The individual soul in man is the collective form of
the Infinite. It will hold sacred every aspect man’s physical, vital, emotional,
intellectual and psychic evolution. Inspite of the manifold manifestation of
the soul as an individual, human society, nation, it is one divine reality, the
conscious infinite in Man.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">This reality as a dogma or creed does not impose on man’s
lower natural being. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">To raise to a spiritualised society, large liberty
will be the means to give the freedom to raise the society from its yoke of
slavery to beliefs, customs and authority. By shaking of all these fetters man
chooses to wear the yoke which helps him to find his diviner inner nature and
its aspiration.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">The true spirituality is the one which does not lay a
yoke upon for example science, philosophy or any art forms or compel them to
square their conclusions with any statement of dogmatic religious or even of
assured spiritual truth as some of the old religions attempted. If let free in
their action will find the unity of Truth with Good and Beauty and God.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">The true Spiritualisation of humanity happens when the
true inner theocracy is established removing the false theocracy of dominant
church or priesthood. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt;">
<span style="line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 16.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">This chapter ends with the word “Sarvabhavena” from Bhagavad Gita where Lord
Krishna says one who finds true divinity in everything in and around himself
will be free from all illusion and delusion, the freedom which Sri Aurobindo
talks about!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">Uncle Kashyap used to
say that Gardens By the Bay is a treasure trove - once you visit this place you
will be addicted to it. Therefore there were no two opinions when it was
suggested that the October walk be held in his cherished venue.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">A small group of
enthusiastic walkers assembled near the Magnificent Bull Statue at 8 am sharp
(Memories keep flooding to me that Uncle Kashyap would always make it a point
to be at the walk venues two minutes early). Another group of around 13 people
ventured out straight away to jog/explore the Wonderful Wizard of OZ in Flower
Dome.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">Ably guided by
Praveen with the warming up exercises, the group, after reaching our favourite
“Planet” spot ( a hefty seven tons bronze sculpture of a baby floating in the
air), set out to explore different territory this occasion. Alok volunteered to
take us through the adjacent Marina Bay Sands. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">It was indeed a walk with a difference – an unforgettable experience.
This is the first occasion when substantial portion of the walk was inside an
air conditioned mall. </b>Crossing the Dragon Fly Bridge over the ECP into
Marina Bay Sands (MBS), travelling the ups and downs of the escalators
marvelling at the ambience of F&B Celebrity restaurants, engaging in
vertical climb (Just only lifts!) soaring up to the 57<sup>th</sup> Floor to
enjoy the panoramic view of Singapore shorelines, coming down to the fourth
storey for viewing the Singapore Floating Platform and our Nation’s Pride
Singapore Merlion, not to miss the luxury fashion brands shops catering to the
exclusive elite of market and the Sampan rides along the canal at the Shoppes
at MBS, we had feast for our eyes throughout. As Praveen remarked it was good
that we came in very early in the day without our spouses when the grandiose
shops were still not open for business, lest we should have burnt a big hole in
our wallets.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">Thereafter we came
back to the Gardens by the Bay to enjoy the Heritage Gardens. We were
overwhelmed with joy upon coming to know that many of the inscriptions
depicting the diverse history and Singapore culture told through fascinating
story of plants in the four themed garden were contributions by Uncle Kashyap’s
eldest daughter Savita.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">Rounding up our walk
with a visit to Sun Pavilion, home of a large collection of cacti, we
reluctantly bade adieu to the Gardens by the Bay and reached the host’s
premises. True to the Kashyap tradition, we were warmly welcomed by the entire
Family. Musical performance followed our meditation and reading of prayers.
Ramni and Praveen with their kirtans and bhajans ably assisted by unle Kashyap’s
Music teacher and our K V Rao on the tabla were indeed a treat to our ears. The
pinnacle of course is the lovely rendition of the song “What makes you
Beautiful” by our little Deepika captivating the entire audience. I am sure
Uncle Kashyap would have felt proud that the October brunch Sangeeth tradition is
kept alive and humming.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">As usual, we were all
treated to a sumptuous brunch by the Kashyap Family.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-SG;">It was a worthwhile
day spent in the Park which Uncle held dear to his heart and in the Kashyap
Nivas where lived and loved.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The October edition of our Newsletter has as its theme canto 4 of Book Seven of Savitri, in the Book of Yoga, The Triple Soul Forces. Savitri’s yoga continues as she seeks out her soul. She was then on the highway that led her past luminous souls. She met luminous beings along the way and felt a deep silence in her midst and fathomed her nearing destination. However, such luminous destinations rarely come so easy. Savitri still has vistas to cross. In this canto, Savitri comes face to face with the triple soul forces, and the alter-egos of these divine forces, now muted, restricted, curbed and curtailed, not being able to carry out their divine work, but which, with an awakened Psychic would be able to realise and execute the true purpose of their existence in the being. It has been an amazing journey that we have had with Savitri as she traversed rough roads earlier and who now stands close to the gateway leading to her soul. It is exhilarating even to know that we are indeed travelling with Savitri and discovering our own inner world and its inhabitants. In this particular juncture of the journey, we stand face to face with the Divine powers residing within us but Divine powers left bereft of the means to express themselves fully. They appear in their limitation and yearn to be realised and expressed in their fullest. But this comprehensive expression can never be, unless the Soul emerges from behind the dense dark clouds of our nature and comes forward, resplendent and shining, removing the clouds forever, and giving the full power to the now limited Divine powers to exist in their divinity fully. In order, the first force or power we meet is the Power of Divine Compassion. She embraces the agony of the downtrodden, the beaten, the defeated, the incapable, and all that suffers in the night of God in incapacity. As she completes her introduction, another voice rises from the void, the voice from the shadow of Divine pity, which is Self-Pity. This creature is steeped in the toxic waste of self-pity, and writhes in pain, seized with dejection and rejection, accepting its lot as given. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next on the journey, she meets with another force, the power of Divine Strength, who is here to help the being stand strong and do a work for God, who is still striving to perform her work but who waits faithfully for God to come and give her the Divine Power to express herself fully. The alter-ego of this power of Divine Strength speaks next, in ignorance. This is the ego of world desire, which brags about all its achievements here. It reeks strongly of our modern thinking mind, devoid of the expression of the workings of the higher consciousness. Savitri moves on and comes face to face with another being on a higher ground, the force or Divine Power of Light which is the reason of all true wisdom, bliss and peace. She too is awaiting the fullest expression of her power since the reigning power of the soul is still in the background, denying her the power of true expression. The voice of the alter-ego, the lower mind in man cries out its misery of being bound to the body, which at this point is still limited, receiving its inputs from the limited senses to fathom its truth, and express it, in its smallness and deformation. To all these divine powers which are yearning to exist in their truth, Savitri gives the assurance that she will bring to them that Light, Love and Life that alone will save and continues on her upward journey.</div>
