AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

In Savitri, Aswapati had to travel many subtle worlds before reaching at the summit. I just want to know whether the person doing the sadhana must have to undertake the same journey during life time as well as after the physical body is discarded. Will the psychic being have to undergo the same route after death, even if a part is already covered during life time or skip those already covered?🌅☀️🔥🕊️

The journey of Aswapati is a very special journey taken consciously by him as the pathfinder and the pathmaker for the New Creation. It is a very detailed account. While the journey of the human soul does follow on a track with certain main aspects described there, the actual journey of the soul after death is described in Book 9 and 10 when Satyavan is taken away and travels through the Astral worlds, at first plunges into darkness followed by the hell and heavens of the vital worlds and the different layers of the mental worlds.  Then it rests for a while in the bosom of the Divine which is best described in Book Two Canto 14, The World Soul. This part doesn’t come in Book Ten because instead of going to rest before rebirth, the soul of Satyavan is pulled towards the Earth as described in Book Ten Canto Four, the dream twilight of the earthly real before it is released. 

In essence the journey of the soul after death is through the subtle physical, skirting through  the vital hells and heavens, hastening through the mental worlds if these elements were developed enough. Finally it enters a reconstituting psychic sleep in the psychic world in the lap of the Divine as described in The World Soul where it waits to return and go further. This is the journey in brief. If you have some more specific question about it I will be happy to answer. Some of these are already covered in my talk on auromaa. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Aspiration is something that rises from the heart. It can take the form of seeking for the Divine, a longing that grows and turns it into a single aim, a cry that takes the form of a wordless prayer. It is a fire that burns in the heart, gradually spreading from there to the…
