Visions of Champaklal

Golden Virat Purusha

1987-01-01

Champaklal finds himself in an altogether strange place and he loses even his own individual identity. This new place or the “hall” is not the common type with doors, windows, etc., seen in the physical world. It is a place in the new world, filled with the golden light of the Supramental Truth and it can he-reached only through a higher consciousness that transcends all earthly consciousness. Here, “Self's vast spiritual silence” is experienced and a sweet, musical sound of a mantra is heard which gradually enters the cells of the body and through an interplay of various forces—as indicated by the colours—it transforms them as symbolised by the numerous living figures representing the vital being getting merged into the light of the higher consciousness.

Outside was seen a golden universal Purusha, the physical embodiment of the Supramental Truth. His “body was composed only of suns, implying that each cell of His body was Supramentalised. The very glance and touch of this “Virat Purusha” of the material universe lifted Champaklal into a higher consciousness where “Life from beyond grew a conqueror of death” as symbolised by the chant of “OM! Lead me from mortality to immortality” and the sound of victory bells.

Thus, this beautiful vision begins with the “Forget thyself”¹ type of experience and gradually unfolds the process of transformation into a higher consciousness, immersing Champaklal in the light of the Supramental Truth:

”“His soul was a delegation of the All
That turned from, itself to join the one Supreme.” ||83.23||
