AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Which is the best commentary on Savitri? 😊🪷

The best commentary on Savitri is yet to be written. Savitri has been revealed from a plane of consciousness not yet accessible to the human mind. It is only a growing spiritual intuition that can help us understand Savitri, to some extent. The commentaries however do help in orienting us to the storyline as it flows through the book. They also invite and awaken interest in reading it, provide useful hints and insights, thereby bringing us in contact with its beauty, joy, magnificence and wonder. 

There are a number of different commentaries available as of date, such as Nadkarni ji. Pandit ji, Shraddhavan. Mine is in the Press, likely to come soon. Plenty of talks are also available on different platforms. My talks on Savitri are all on Auromaa.org

It is difficult to say which one is better, as each has an angle of approach that suits different temperaments. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Today I had a vivid dream where I was sitting with my late grandfather, offering to read to him from Savitri. In life, our bond was anchored in deep spiritual sharing, and just before his passing, he had instinctively offered his pranam upon seeing a photograph of Sri Aurobindo.🌙📖🕊️🙏🏻[…]

How long was this, that is, when did your grandfather pass away? I was wondering if there was an actual contact with him in the dream. It seems likely. In any case it is a most beautiful dream, possibly a dream vision.

But how long will she be in this Coma stage? Her body’s some part is working and some not…Means what we heard: some percent of her brain is working…. 🕯️🤲🌸🙏🏻

Surely she can pull through the Coma. But it is difficult to predict. Ultimately it depends upon what her soul choses. And the choice of the soul is not based on the attachments in the world. The soul is not attached to anyone in its journey through lives. Its only attachment is to the Divine Truth. Its only concern is about the progress it can make in its life. If there is still the possibility of some progress in this body then it may return. If not then it may make a different choice.
