AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

“But there are other worlds where the Manifestation is simultaneous and not successive.” what does this mean🤔?

She is referring here to the Supramental Worlds. Successive manifestations imply Time and Space.

Sweet Mother, can one go out of Time and Space? If one goes out of the manifestation.

Out of this lower manifestation, the triple world of Mind, Life and Body. But there are other manifestation that is eternal and not subject to decay and destruction. And of course one can go beyond all manifestation into the Unmanifest and further into That which exceeds both.

My question – As Supramental world and Satchidananda worlds above are beyond Time and Space, are they out of Manifestation (as per statement 2)? But, statement 1 seems to imply that the Supramental world and Satchidananda worlds are within Manifestation. How can we understand both statements 1 and 2 together?

s i noted above there is eternal manifestation as well as temporal. This diagram of Sri Aurobindo may help.

Supreme Self-Contained Absolute

First Absolute—    Tat. The Absolute Transcendent, the Supreme, Paratpara, (containing all, limited by nothing).

Second Absolute—Sat. The supreme self-contained absolute Existence, Sachchidananda, (Ananda uniting Sat & Chit), holding in its absolute unity the dual Principle (He & She, Sa and Sâ) and the fourfold Principle, OM with its four states as one.

Third Absolute—    Aditi – M [the Mother]. Aditi is the indivisible consciousness force and Ananda of the Supreme; M, its living dynamis, the supreme Love, Wisdom, Power. Adya-Shakti of the Tantra = Parabrahman

Fourth Absolute—Parameswara of the Gita = Parameswari of the Tantra

The Manifestation

I

First Absolute—    The concealed Avyakta Supreme, self-involved Sachchidananda, Parabrahman (Parameswaraiswari)

Second Absolute—Aditi-M. containing in herself the Supreme. The Divine Consciousness, Force, Ananda upholding all the universes—Para Shakti, Para Prakriti, Mahamaya (yayedam dhâryate jagat).

Third Absolute—    The Eternal Manifestation (The supreme Satya Loka, Chaitanyaloka, Tapoloka, Ananda-loka-not those of the mental series.)

II

The Manifestation in Eternal Time

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Just two days ago, it dawned on me that I no longer felt only the presence of a Guru. I wanted to experience the vast Sri Krishna and the Divine Mother, who transcends Form and Name. I prayed for this. The very next day, while reading Book 4, Canto 3 of Savitri, these lines came to my mind: 🌌📖😊🙏🏼🌹[…]

The whole mystery of the Divine Incarnation is there. The Divine assumes a Name and Form so that by the help of their Name and Form we reach beyond Name and Form. That is the ….

I was recently diagnosed with mild autism after going through the screening for family reasons. I have been following the Mother and Integral Yoga for a few years now. I was suspected of having autism as a child by a Teacher, but the Doctor misdiagnosed it, I think. Instead, I was told I was a gifted child. 👧😕🥲[…]

I would not label you with autism or for that matter anything else. I have met a few people who are unable to handle excessive vital energy not because of any weakness or narrowness but simply because they were endowed with a simplicity and straightforwardness that is so rare in human beings. It is certainly a positive…
