AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I am now reading the canto “Issue” I understand within my mind’s capacity.  I have a question here. In the beginning of this Canto, Savitri’s thought process to cancel the fate (death of  Satyavan)  is described. Can you give the main idea by which she wants to  cancel the fate to bring a new life to Satyavan? ☀️🌌🕊️📜

I have thought about few concepts on which Savitri is planning to stop his  death, and cancel karma. Just to correct my opinions, I want your explanation. You can give me the main idea by which she plans this move? 

It is mentioned in the Canto itself, for example. 

‘The fixity of the cosmic sequences

Fastened with hidden inevitable links
She must disrupt, dislodge by her soul’s force
Her past, a block on the Immortal’s road,
Make a rased ground and shape anew her fate.’
And towards the end again. 
‘

In her own self she found her high recourse;

She matched with the iron law her sovereign right:
Her single will opposed the cosmic rule.

To stay the wheels of Doom this greatness rose.

At the Unseen’s knock upon her hidden gates
Her strength made greater by the lightning’s touch
Awoke from slumber in her heart’s recess.

It bore the stroke of That which kills and saves.

Across the awful march no eye can see,
Barring its dreadful route no will can change,
She faced the engines of the universe;
A heart stood in the way of the driving wheels:
Its giant workings paused in front of a mind,
Its stark conventions met the flame of a soul.

A magic leverage suddenly is caught
That moves the veiled Ineffable’s timeless will:
A prayer, a master act, a king idea
Can link man’s strength to a transcendent Force.

Then miracle is made the common rule,
One mighty deed can change the course of things;
A lonely thought becomes omnipotent.’

Essentially changing fate implies discovering the soul’s freedom and power as well as the Divine Intervention using will, heart and thought as effective intermediaries.

Affectioantely,

Alok Da

How can one enlighten, strengthen and purify the vital? It is also mentioned that the choice of sensations and their control should be made with a very scientific austerity and solely for the growth and perfection of the vital. In day-to-day life, what would it mean and how should one practice this? 🔥🌱

The vital generally acts under the impulsion of desire and its children ambition, fear, and the rest. The first step in its refinement is to practice equanimity and nishkama karma, that is to say, action done with an eye on perfection rather than personal gains. Next it should be turned into an offering to the Divine within, an act of worship of the Divine. Here is a beautiful hint by The Mother…
