... that he was "trying to bring it [the world of the Gods] down into the physical". As the days passed, Jaya Devi and other sadhaks had felt that all Pondicherry was "fragrant with incense", that a great delight seemed to be at play. And on Mahashtami day, when she was granted a special permission, Jaya Devi performed a private worship in Sri Aurobindo's room. That day, she saw Sri Aurobindo looking like... background, it would have been merely banal if something of seminal significance had not happened sooner or later. But what exactly did happen? The reports of the sadhaks - Purani, Rajangam, Champaklal, Jaya Devi and others - are unanimous that, when Sri Aurobindo and the Mother had withdrawn after meditation, pranam and blessings, Datta spoke some words as if visioning something in a trance or a sudden... and meant a decisive victory on the path generating a new fervour and ananda in the atmosphere, few of the inmates were quite prepared for what immediately followed. On the 27th morning, Jaya Devi went as usual with the tulasi garlands and returned disappointed, for she had been told that Sri Aurobindo would not come out for darshan.

About a dozen - including Bejoy Nag, Rani Nag, Rajani, Upen and Jaya Devi - used to sit with Mirra during those meditative sessions of aspiration and inner awakening. In Purani's words, "It was as if Sri Aurobindo was slowly withdrawing himself and the Mother was ... they were themselves being invaded by a prepotent new force - as though they were unbelievably caught in the throes of a spiritual rebirth. Some idea of the charged atmosphere may be formed from Jaya Devi's reminiscences of those days, as translated from the original Bengali by Sisir Kumar Ghose: November came along.
