AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

How was the universe 🌏 created?

The universe is created by the extension of the Divine Consciousness in terms of Time and Space. It is somewhat like a poet or writer expressing himself through pen and paper. But the creation is going on as a continuous process so we can’t say ‘was’ created but ‘is being’ created. 

So God as the Author or Poet decided to write His story so He brought out of Himself all the Knowledge and Power to write. This Knowledge and power of God (Omniscience and Omnipotence) is the Divine Mother. Then together they started writing this grand story with Space as the page and Time as the pen and ink. The numerous forms are the letters. The object of this story is to multiply delight. If we read this story with the mind we are unable to understand its meaning because the mind does not know the language of God. But if we read it with the soul then all is legible and beautifully clear. Right now the Chapter that is being written is the most important one. It is titled, ‘From Man to Superman.’

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Thanks for the interesting parallels between the spiritual nationalism of Sri Aurobindo and Charles de Gaul. Sri Aurobindo did regard him as a divine instrument in the Second World War.
