Sri Aurobindo : corresp.
THEME/S
Experience: As soon as I unite myself with you, the whole form gets extended in all directions—the head touches the sky; the feet go deep down in the ground and hands get extended into infinite distances in the ecstasy of the timeless, eternal, infinite consciousness I feel as if the whole is aspiring through me and… there descends the sun radiating golden light and flows out from the whole body as orange-coloured fire… No aspiration remains self-centred, nor is there any desire to keep the descending lights for personal use.... Everything flows out unhindered to the universe as Divine's Grace.... Day and night I see myself in this huge form… radiating the only thing—fire! fire! Explanation: It is what it represents itself to be—an experience of the universal consciousness aspiring to the Divine Truth and beginning to receive its light. It is not your own consciousness, although you feel it in yourself, but a symbolic experience of the universal Vishwa-Purusha. These things one sees when one opens to the Cosmic Consciousness. Observed, felt and taken rightly, they help to liberate, universalize and impersonalize....
Observe and go forward.
