In Savitri study class where you have mentioned about the pain of death and that one is tied with 101 cords then you mentioned but now death has changed, how is it changed🧐. I believe it might have changed after the supramental decent, but how?

The victory over Death as indicated in Savitri is described towards the end of the Canto.

‘At last he knew defeat inevitable
And left crumbling the shape that he had worn,
Abandoning hope to make man’s soul his prey
And force to be mortal the immortal spirit.’

It means that the action of Death which is an all pervasive ignorance holding the human soul hypnotised and captive within the cage of matter will loosen its grip eventually releasing the soul from its bandage to ignorance. Physical death is only a last consequence of the action of ignorance. Once human souls are released from its grip then we will open more and more to the Divine Love and Grace leading eventually to the complete victory even over physical death.

Affectionately,

You said that destruction was completely avoidable if those involved in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata responded to the Divine Will but it is also said that Divinity of an Avatar will be fully manifested when there is great darkness or adversity at the other side. Without Ravana how the Divinity of Rama would have been fully manifested and also without Kansa or Duryodhana how the Divinity of Krishna would have been fully manifested? There is also the story of Jai – Vijay so is it the leela of the Divine for his complete manifestation or the distortion in creation🤔?

Yes this is the other complimentary truth that the greater the darkness, individually as well as collectively, the greater the possibility of Light. India is a classic example of a civilisation plunged into darkness for …
