Is Supramental is below Sacchidananda or Sa Chidananda is beyond  Supramental?☀️🔽⚡💎🪷

The terms above and below do not apply for realms beyond Time and Space. The Supermind is the Omnipotence and Omniscience of the Supreme. It is the Truth that is the basis of creation and the ordainer of the Divine Law that governs all creatures. Hence the Supermind is also known as The Lord or The Creator. 

Sacchidananda is the Divine Being who is everywhere and in everything, within as well as beyond the Cosmos. One can find the Sacchidananda everywhere but the Supramental is the Lord, the King who dwells beyond the highest reach of the Mind, beyond even the gods. We can say therefore that the Supermind is the Creator aspect of the Sacchidananda, His absolute Knowledge and Power. So you see wherever there is Sacchidananda, there is also the Supermind. But here it is veiled and acts from behind the Ignorance whereas in its own realm the Supramental is revealed in all its Splendour. 

Even the realms of Satloka, Chidghana loka, Anandaloka are differentiated by the Supermind. So to speak of Supermind as something lower than Sacchidananda is like saying a person is higher without his knowledge and power! 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

My 8-year-old daughter wanted to understand the meaning of this quote by Sri Aurobindo. Can u please explain? The ideal Yogi is not a withdrawn and pent-up force, but ever engaged in doing good to all creatures, either by the flood of the divine energy that he pours on the world or by himself standing in the front of humanity, its leader in the march and the battle, but unbound by his works and superior to his personality. 🌼🙏🏻

It means that a yogi is not someone cut off from life and work and people. He engages with everything but in a new and different way. He has access to a greater divine knowledge, a truer divine love, a more intense divine …
