In the West Spirituality is perceived as a fad. We are talking about a fashion that generates a lot of money. And we also talk about a fashion that generates hundreds of thousands of disillusioned people, hundreds of thousands of people who, after a journey full of fireworks, perceive spirituality as a big lie wich people should move closer when life becomes difficult or when the powerlessness of their intellect leaves them into an atrocious desert full of doubts...or when their life ends.
We co… Continue
"Madame Théon was born on the Isle of Wight and she lived in Tlemcen with her husband who was a great occultist. Madame The on herself was an occultist of great powers, a remarkable clairvoyant, and she had mediumistic qualities. Her powers were quite exceptional; she had received an extremely complete and rigorous training and she could exteriorise herself… Continue

PARIS AND TLEMCEN
(1905-12)
The Mother's high inner realization and spiritual radiance oon attracted towards her many seekers. In 1906 a small group was formed under her guidance, which was named Idea.They met regularly on Wednesday evenings at her house, first 1 rue Lemercier, later in rue des Levis an… Continue
"Alone he moved watched by the infinity
Around him and the Unknowable above.
All could be seen that shuns the mortal eye,
All could be known the mind has never grasped;
All could be done no mortal will can dare.
A limitless movement filled a limitless peace.
In a profound existence beyond earth's… Continue
"The Avatar is always a dual phenomenon of divinity and humanity; the Divine takes upon himself the human nature with all its outward limitations and makes them the circumstances, means, instruments of the divine consciousness and the divine power, a vessel of the divine birth and the divine works. But so surely it must be, since otherwise the object of the Avatar’s descent is not fulfilled; for that object is precisely to show that the human birth with all its limitations can be made such a mea… Continue
Whenever any sublime teaching appears on earth, there are emerging new sects appropriating of them. Appear crackpots claiming to be the reincarnation of the great Masters and, as always, are often surrounded by poor dupes who blindly believe their delusions. And those who, seriously, study and follow these teachings, are labeled as liars by them.
Yes, certainly, human misery knows no bounds. Continue
"A certain class of minds shrink from aggressiveness as if it were a sin. Their temperament forbids them to feel the delight of battle and they look on what they cannot understand as something monstrous and sinful... To ask masses of mankind to act as saints, to rise to the height of divine love and pra… Continue
It is very interesting to consider the organic nature of the Universe that emerges after the postulates of quantum mechanics.
At the subatomic level, solid objects of Newtonian physics dissolve into probability patterns very similar to the wave, and these patterns no longer represent probabilities o… Continue
Q: Are these forces of any use when they come out from the stones?
A: Certainly, yes! The stone can preserve the force almost indefinitely. There are those stones, which can serve as a link; there are stones, which can serve as a battery. There are stones, which can hold a force for protection.… Continue
From the observatory I can see the depths of the Cosmos.
I see how the matter obeys (or seems to obey) the laws of physics. But I see in the night through two lenses: the lens of the telescope and the lens of my own mind. I observe the Cosmos from the division, from the part. I realize tha… Continue
Q: We have been wondering why you should have to write and rewrite your poetry (for instance, "Savitri" ten or twelve times) when you have all the inspiration at your command and do not have to receive it with the difficulty that faces budding Yogis like us.
A: That is very simple. I use… Continue

"The Mother's consciousness is the divine Consciousness and the Light that comes from it is the light of the divine Truth, the Force that she brings down is the force of the divine Truth. One who receives and accepts and lives in the Mother's light, will begin to see the truth on all the planes, the mental, the vital, the physical. He will reject all that is undivine, -- the undivine is the falsehood, the ignorance, the error of the dark forces; the undivine is all that is obscure and unwilling… Continue
The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that the disorder of all those systems which are isolated of the Universe always increases (it is curious: the entropy increases only in those isolated systems from the rest of the Universe. For those not isolated s… Continue
I will be brief, in fact, only a few words are necessary.
Sri Aurobindo came upon the Earth to give a boost to the slow march of Evolution.
However, many of disciples believed that immortality had already been conquered by Him. And not only in his own body (or in the Mother's body… Continue
"You say that this way is too difficult for you or the likes of you and it is only "Avatars" like myself or the Mother that can do it. That is a strange misconception; for it is, on the contrary, the easiest and simplest and most direct way and anyone can do it, if he makes his mind and vital quiet, even those who have a tenth of your capacity can do it. It is the other way of tension and strain and hard endeavour that is difficult and needs a great force of Tapasya. As for the Mother and myself… Continue
