What is the nature of the profound Inner Awakening triggered by reading a powerful phrase like “Man is a Transitional Being,” and how can such a “casual passing phrase” act as a Mantra to open an Inner Door?❤️‍🔥😊🙏🏻🌼📜

Dear Sir, in your talk, you have said that in the early days, when you first read the mahavakya that “All life is Yoga,” and something positive happened, similarly, when I first read that “Man is a Transitional Being”, it was a Bingo, an Epiphany. Of course, my experience was according to my level of evolution.

I felt something in the heart centre, and now, even after 4-5 years, I feel as if it happened today; it is a very real and solid experience. (It was not a vision or something magical, but a silent inner event, which cannot be described in words) Sir, what are these experiences(I can feel them but can’t explain them), and why and how is it triggered by simply reading a phrase?

Sri Aurobindo writes in Savitri.

‘A casual passing phrase can change our life.’

(Ref. https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/34/the-call-to-the-quest#p42)

The phrase, coming from a great inner height, worked like a mantra to open an inner door. It awakened your soul through the shock of the mantric words and initiated you into your journey as a guiding principle and beacon light. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da
