AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Questions on Mother, Sri Aurobindo and Savitri

This is a very serious question. When I started getting connected to The Mother and Sri Aurobindo a year back , listening your talks, going to Delhi ashram, reading the books, I used to feel so close to them, my aspiration was high, I used to be conscious of them, Sincere in my works and offerings.But now when I have spent more than a year in Delhi and college, specially giving alot energy to my relationship, as I took lots of ups and downs, indulging in music societies, and hence getting into all the lower activities like spending time with people with ordinary life and lower tendencies.

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.

The Eternal Night is indeed the Inconscient. Its terrifying aspect is because it is a state of ultimate separation from the Divine. Hence it is
