Aurobindo 29-Savitri-Book -2

An appreciation on Savitri Book IIThe Book of the Traveller of the Worlds Canto VThe Godheads of the Little Life Words within inverted commas are Aurobindo's 'At first was only an etheric Space: Its huge vibrations circled round and round Housing some unconceived initiative: Upheld by a supreme original Breath Expansion and contraction's mystic act Created touch and friction in the void, Into abstract emptiness brought clash and clasp: ' Highly informative and must-read lines 'Parent of an expanding universe In a matrix of disintegrating force, By spending it conserved an endless sum. On the hearth of Space it kindled a viewless Fire That, scattering worlds as one might scatter seeds, Whirled out the luminous order of the stars.' Poetic science and spirituality.. What an alignment of verses to enlighten... 'An ocean of electric Energy Formlessly formed its strange wave-particles Constructing by their dance this solid scheme, Its mightiness in the atom shut to rest; Masses were forged or feigned and visible shapes; Light flung the photon's swift revealing spark And showed, in the minuteness of its flash Imaged, this cosmos of apparent things.' 'Thus has been made this real impossible world, An obvious miracle or convincing show. Or so it seems to man's audacious mind' His personal vision as impersonal fact, As witnesses of an objective world His erring sense and his instruments' artifice.'.. ............My consciousness this moment, O'Guru, I'm in awe....in invincible heights Ineffable Thee embellishing poetic creation My inquisitive apprehension, erring Thee may opine May there so, let Savitri in my self arise Aroused there so be knowledge and fortune
