Home » Questions on Mother, Sri Aurobindo and Savitri » 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,

“Sri Aurobindo, on the other hand affirms that while suffering and evil are there no doubt, the real purpose of life is a divine fulfilment by progressively embodying Truth and Harmony and Delight. That is our ultimate divine destiny for which the soul plunged into the great adventure of creation.” In true sense, how do we embody Truth, Harmony and Delight in this earthly life? My question is transformation into what kind of Divine destiny?

The Vedas as well as the Gita reveals to us that there is a double nature in man. One is the present human nature that is the product of our material and animal evolution. But there is another, a higher divine nature of which the human is a possible candidate. Truth, Harmony, Peace, Beauty, Delight, Strength are aspects of the Divine Nature which can be acquired by the persistent practice of aspiration, rejection (of the animal tendencies), surrender to the Divine Mother. …

Yes, The Mother remarked once when a disciple died that She saw Sri Aurobindo’s symbol stamped on her forehead and the great assurance that he gave for all who died in the Ashram would not go through the realms one passes after death. They would come straight to Sri Aurobindo’s dwelling place in the subtle physical world …

Yes, in principle yes. It will be a race of evolved beings who will embody the new consciousness, the new Light that enables them to live in wideness, inner freedom, love, compassion and delight. They are beings full of benevolence and the power to change earthly life through the inner knowledge to which they are open. But their …
