Sri Aurobindo writes, “The evolution has a purpose, but it is a purpose in a circle.

Is it just a coincidence that Sri Krishna was the de facto ruler of Dwarka and Sri Aurobindo started his work as the de facto ruler of Gujarat? I feel as if it indicates that he has started his work from where Sri Krishna left. ๐ฆ๐ชท๐๐
There are quite a few other similarities. Sri Krishna was brought up in a foster home away from his parents and so was Sri Aurobindo.

In Sri Aurobindo’s writings, he very much stresses the need for sexual discipline and Brahmacharya during the student phase of life, and I remember reading Schopenhauer on how the childlike curiosity, inquiry and energy get directed towards sexual mating with the coming of puberty.๐ฏ๐ฆโจ๐[…]

I listened to your most recent Savitri audio. You are on “towards the black void.” You mentioned the Vaitarani. Can you explain what that is? And how do we cross it in the context of the Mother’s Yoga? ๐ผ๐โจ
