AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sri Aurobindo writes in his book Essays Divine and Human: “Matter, Life, Mind, Supermind or Gnosis, and beyond these the quadruple power of a supreme Being-Consciousness-Force-Bliss—these are the grades of the evolutionary ascent from inconscience to the Superconscience.” (pg.249) He also writes that “The evolution of the earth nature is not finished because it has manifested only three powers out of the seven-fold scale of consciousness that is involved in manifested Nature. It has brought out from its apparent inconscience only the three powers of Mind and Life and Matter.” (pg.244) Can we infer from this that after Supermind, the luminous planes of Sat, Chit and Ananda will be evolving here on earth🧐? Of course, the question is mainly to know if I have correctly comprehended Sri Aurobindo’s vision of evolution and its fulfilment here on earth

Absolutely so. After the Supramental Manifestation and the Supramental body there will be the Manifestation of Bliss and the bliss body. Sri Krishna worked for that eventual fulfilment but the base of Truth Consciousness has to be first firmly established upon earth. 

The difference however will be that right now this evolutionary emergence is a painful process involving much struggle due to the hard grip of ignorance.  With the Supramental Manifestation the further emergence will be a conscious happy process undertaken in freedom and delight. Whether and what way the further Manifestation beyond the Bliss Self will take place is difficult to say since creation has begun with delight. With the full recovery of the delight of existence there would likely be an unending play of existence and consciousness in countless bodies of bliss, the Maharasa envisaged by the Hindu mystics. 

Affectionately,

The changes are too many and in every sphere of life. The problem is that many of these changes are not only not  understood by the old consciousness but often misunderstood to the extent of interpreting these changes as negative.

I am facing depression and a lot of anxiety attacks. No matter how much I pray to the Lord and the Mother, I still cannot overcome it. I tried to analyse myself in my free time and observed that, in any relationship, I am more of a giver than a receiver. 😣🫴🏼🙍🏼‍♂️💔🙍🏼‍♀️🌸[…]

First thing is not to analyse oneself in an effort to understand the reason for one’s depression. The mind, especially when in a state of depression is unable to see clearly and often tends to blame others for one’s own …

Sir, I once asked you about ‘Dhurandhar’ and Pakistan, and you mentioned that Pakistan no longer exists in the Occult World. What exactly is this ‘Occult World’? What does it look like? How can one see it? 🗺️🌏😦🌼[…]

The occult world simply implies that before something manifests in the physical world it passes through the hidden realms and their forces that operate behind the tangible physical phenomenon. 

Lets take an example. Before a plot is purchased and a building constructed there is much that goes behind the scenes, discussions between interested parties, purchase, map approval and so on and so forth. If it is an…
