Often when I go into solitude for meditation🧘‍♀️ for a prolonged period interesting things happen. Prophetic dreams, etc. 1.5 years ago I was down with covid and couldn’t see anyone for a week. I was feeling very bad and spent entire days sleeping. One day, I woke up from such a heavenly dream that I will never forget that experience. The dream was very very simple — it was me walking around some “school” if it can even be called that” with a few friends. The location was in some picturesque place in the nature. And I literally felt when I woke up that I wish I had NEVER woken up. It was such a deep feeling of loss that I experienced when I woke up because what I felt in the dream was just absolute Bliss. There is simply no other way to describe that state. And I bet in life there is no experience that can compare with the state of supreme serenity, absolute happiness, and joy beyond all imagination. Just wanted to share this because I haven’t felt that way since, and I still don’t know why that beautiful experience came in the middle of my illness. Could it be that my mind was completely shut off at that point in time, so I could experience something much deeper?

In Savitri, does Eternal Night mean the deep of Inconscience and Everlasting Day mean the bliss of Superconscience? Sri Aurobindo describes the eternal night as ‘terror’s boundlessness’, ‘ pitiless void’ or as a ‘stupendous Nought’? If this is such a dark and strong denial of being, how does Savitri 🕊️even manage to talk to Death? One can understand that in the Everylasting Day it is all so beautiful that Savitri can talk to the Lord but it is hard to makes sense of Eternal Night.
