Home » Questions on Mother, Sri Aurobindo and Savitri » Sri Aurobindo writes in “The web of yoga”, “We can pass into the Paratpara Brahman, but we can’t know the Paratpara Brahman.” Does it mean attaining Nirvanam, The Total Merger, that nothing individual is left?

And since most human beings live in the vital, the transaction also takes place mostly at the vital level. Most …
