Everything We Have, Belongs To Her
Supreme consciousness becomes manifest in various elements of creation through the play of the Divine Mother. To realise that weare a part of the Supreme consciousness, we need to surrender to the Mother and seek her grace. In Sri Aurobindo's integral yoga, the Divine Mother is at the centre and everything that we have, belongs to her. The purpose of our life is fulfilled only when we become an instrument of the Divine Mother. The Mother is one, but appears before us differently, each appearance representing her diverse powers and facets. Maheshwari is full of wisdom, peace and compassion and she nurtures everyone based on their intentions and actions to march forward towards the truth. Mahakali is the embodiment of staggering strength and force and she vehemently uproots all anti-divine forces in individuals so that they make swift progress. Mahalakshmi is the personification of divine beauty, harmony and bliss and she encourages us to refine our being so that there is harmony and beauty within and around us. Maha Saraswati is the epitome of knowledge and excellence and bestows upon us a relentless spirit of perfection which encourages us to act according to the divine plan. When an individual reaches a particular high point in spiritual development, these four powers of the Divine Mother find their harmony and freedom of movement within jiva, the individual consciousness. Consequently, Maha shakti or universal mother becomes manifest and unites us with the light and bliss of Supreme consciousness. According to Sri Aurobindo’s, if this spiritual growth could be carried out at a substantial collective level, human nature will be permanently transformed into dynamic divine nature. Evolution of consciousness can be possible only when two great powers that are within us and also potentially present everywhere in the universe, work in synchronisation. The first is a relentless aspiration in the heart of the jiva to become one with the Supreme and the second is the grace of the Mother. While the grace of the Divine Mother is omnipresent, it is often our aspiration that is fickle. Therefore, we need to strengthen and refine our aspiration so that its flame the burns perpetually. riAurobindo elucidates a substantial collective level, human tree surrender, plasticity and rejection through which we can work on our aspiration. Surrender needs to be constant, vigorous and complete. At all times, the individual must actively offer each and every part of his beithe Divine Mother. No partof the should resist or shy away from this movement under any pretext becaugrace is able to do its work only whesurrender is total. Besides this, on needs to cultivate plasticity so that power of the Mother can enter with and bring transformation. A lot of times, higher power is waiting to guide and uplift us, but because of tunnel vision and rigid notions, we unable to receive it. Therefore, it is crucial to let go of all preconceive notions and become malleable to thwill of the Mother. The component of rejection request to scan ourselves thoroughly an identify everything within us that false.
