The eternal Goddess moved in her cosmic house Sporting with God as a Mother with her child: To him the universe was her bosom of love, His toys were the immortal verities. All here self-lost had there its divine place. The Powers that here betray our hearts and err, Were there sovereign in truth, perfect in joy, Masters in a creation without flaw, Possessors of their own infinitude. There Mind, a splendid sun of vision's rays, Shaped substance by the glory of its thoughts And moved amidst the grandeur of its dreams.   more »

All Nature was a conscious front of God: A wisdom worked in all, self-moved, self-sure, A plenitude of illimitable Light, An authenticity of intuitive Truth, A glory and passion of creative Force. Infallible, leaping from eternity, The moment's thought inspired the passing act, A word, a laughter sprang from Silence' breast, A rhythm of Beauty in the calm of Space, A Knowledge in the fathomless heart of Time. All turned to all without reserve's recoil: A single ecstasy without a break, Love was a close and thrilled identity In the throbbing heart of all that luminous life.   more »

A Bliss, a Light, a Power, a flame-white Love caught all into a sole immense embrace; existence found its truth on Oneness' breast and each became the self and space of all. The great world-rhythms were heart-beats of one Soul, to feel was a flame-discovery of God, all mind was a single harp of many strings, all life a song of many meeting lives; for worlds were many, but the Self was one.   more »

Savitri’s House of Meditation

Savitri is encountering the last decisive turn towards the dreadful and her failure would imply the failure of the present creation, possibly leading to another pralaya or dissolution.  But Savitri has picked up the mantle, the sword of conquest, and must win the battle. Yama, the God of Death with the soul of Satyavan with him, is unyielding and Savitri is just following him helplessly. She doesn’t seem to have any likelihood of winning the difficult race. For a moment, however, she withdraws into her inner self, summoning the strength that alone can reverse the outcome. She enters her House of Meditation and observes the eternal Yajna being carried out there. With it, everything changes, and changes in a most decisive way. The prospects of her winning the race have become assuredly splendid. Savitri has now become, from behind, the Leader of the March and everything is in her full control. Such indeed is the efficacy of the Vedic Sacrifice. And here is a Sacrifice which is being performed by the Lord and his Spouse themselves, by the Sat-Purusha and the Adya-Shakti, the omniscient Being and the omnipotent Consciousness-Force. No power can now stop Savitri. The race is settled in the glorious Yajna. The present article provides an overview of this Yajna of Savitri. ...
