The truth of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother is that they are human representation of Ishwara and Shakti. Shakti is also known simetimes known as Paraprakriti or the higher Divine Supernature.
Prakriti generally refers to the lower formulation of the Higher Divine Nature. Prakriti as it operates here moves here in Ignorance. She becomes matter and living beings and thinking creatures. Similarly, the Purusha here is right now under the spell of lower nature, Prakriti. It has forgotten itself. It is anisa, not Isa or Ishwara, not the Lord.
Sri Aurobindo and The Mother have come to reset or upgrade this balance by raising the individual Purusha to become one with the Lord, Ishwara, as well as raising the individual Prakriti to become one with the Paraprakriti, a permanent part and parcel of the Divine Shakti whom we recognise as the incarnate Divine Mother.
Affectionately,
