AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Is Superman a perpetual phenomenon? Do his Supramental form and The Being remain undestroyed even after his willing withdrawal from the earth? Is He like everlasting Shri Krishna, whose form never dissolves, even after the Maha Pralaya? 🌍🫨🙏🏻🪷❤️‍🔥[…]

In Superman, all Tatwas are divinised. So they are everlasting. So even if he withdraws Himself from the earth, His truth form, truth personality will be ever behind His Soul, like Shri Krishna, though disappeared from earth, yet His form, qualities, are retained along with His Paramatma Swaroopam? Hope my question is clear? 

There is a difference between the Superman and the Supramental being. The Superman is a Mind of Light and a wide, benevolent consciousness, a being of wisdom, power and love. His is a transformed consciousness but not a transformed body. The Superman will be the intermediary between Man and the Supramental being. He will find the inner ways to walk through the pathways of transformation. The Superman is already here. The fully transformed Supramental body is the future. It is a 1000-year project, so to say.

The supramental body will have attributes, luminosity, plasticity, spontaneous immunity to ageing, not subject to disintegration and death. It will remain as long as the soul chooses to stay in it. It does not mean that the soul is bound to be tied to the new body forever. It can withdraw consciously if it wants to and be elsewhere and as it withdraws, the body too withdraws into the supramental substance that is already active upon earth now. 

The earthly body of the Avataras is a different process. It is specially constituted by universal Nature for the work that the Avatar comes to do. The earthly personality of the Avatar continues to remain in contact with the earth, possibly in the subtle physical, and continues to act and influence from there. Perhaps some yogis do something similar. But the supramental body is an evolutionary body and hence it is not to be done in one or two exceptional individuals, yogis or an Avatar. Instead, it will be a body that, once prepared fully, will be accessible and visible to all, even the ordinary human beings and animals. Such is not the case with the earthly personality of the Avatars. Even the devotees have to have faith that it is there. Or one has to engage in tapasya to see it. But the supramental being, once formed, will be there for all other creatures just as man’s coming was a tangible phenomenon for the animal world, though it could never understand or realise what man is. It will be a distinct species, so to say. The Avatars, on the other hand, are distinct and not a collective phenomenon. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

If one is really determined and persistent in his practice of this yoga, beginning from scratch and wishes to make himself eligible to have a glimpse of the overmental plane even for a few seconds before he dies, what should be his attitude towards any sexual activity whatsoever? 🙏🏻🌼[…]

Complete sexual mastery is never easy and is indispensable mainly for the physical transformation part. The ascension of consciousness, glimpse of the Divine can take place without the complete conquest.

As to the process of sexual mastery, there is no simple answer to this most common difficulty especially among male disciples. The general advice is to first weaken the urge and the impulse through Samyama, that is to self…

My 8-year-old daughter wanted to understand the meaning of this quote by Sri Aurobindo. Can u please explain? The ideal Yogi is not a withdrawn and pent-up force, but ever engaged in doing good to all creatures, either by the flood of the divine energy that he pours on the world or by himself standing in the front of humanity, its leader in the march and the battle, but unbound by his works and superior to his personality. 🌼🙏🏻

It means that a yogi is not someone cut off from life and work and people. He engages with everything but in a new and different way. He has access to a greater divine knowledge, a truer divine love, a more intense divine …
