I was waiting there to take a bus to the railway-station which\r\nwas a few miles off. I saw that there were also many other travellers waiting\r\nto board a bus. A busman was inviting people, so I approached his bus. Suddenly\r\na lady came out of the crowd and said, &quot;Please don\'t go there!&quot; She\r\nwas an elderly Tamil lady. I was surprised and asked, &quot;Why, why?&quot; She\r\nsaid, &quot;Well, wait; you\'ll see,&quot; and I stopped. Then there were three\r\nbuses that started <span style=\'font-family:\"Book Antiqua\"\'>―</span> I was in\r\none, the lady was in another and the third was the one I had wanted to board.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:11.5pt;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>The\r\nlady\'s bus came last and the other two were running very fast <span\r\nstyle=\'font-family:\"Book Antiqua\"\'>―</span> competing as to which should go\r\nfirst. Well, what happened is quite natural; the bus in which I was to go dashed\r\nagainst a wayside tree and was damaged, and the passengers were mostly killed\r\nor seriously injured. We reached our destination and naturally I was very\r\neager to see the lady who had stopped me from boarding the bus. I asked her,\r\n&quot;How did you know it? How did you guess?&quot; &quot;I\'ll tell you later\r\non.&quot; So we started again, and went to a holy place on a hillside. It was a\r\nsort of jungle and woodland, full of bushes. The lady and I were walking\r\nquietly together. Then I stepped aside. I wanted to see what was to my left.\r\nSuddenly the lady said, &quot;Please, \r\n<span style=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;\'>\r\n<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;text-indent:11.5pt;\r\nline-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:\r\nnone; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<span style=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;\'>Page\r\n– 40<o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<div class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;text-indent:11.5pt;\r\nline-height:12.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:\r\nnone\'>\r\n\r\n<hr size=2 width=\"100%\" align=center>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>please don\'t go to that\r\nside!&quot; Naturally I was surprised and asked her the reason. Then I saw that\r\nbehind the bushes was a 200 ft. deep precipice. If 1 had taken one step more I\r\nwould have gone down! Then I pleaded with the lady: &quot;Please tell me what\r\nit is; how did you see it?&quot; She said, &quot;All right, I\'ll tell you the\r\nstory, let us sit down.&quot; Then she narrated the story. She said, &quot;When\r\nI was young I lived with my grand father, and we loved each other exceedingly,\r\nwe were very much attached to each other. He used to tell me stories and\r\npleased me in all ways, so I was with him almost all the time. Then one day he\r\nfell rather seriously ill. Doctors were called and they couldn\'t do anything.\r\nThen my grandfather called me and said, \'My child, go and pray to Shiva\'-Shiva\r\nwas the household deity. So I went and knelt down before the image of Shiva and\r\nprayed, \'0 Shiva, my grandfather is ill, please cure him.\' One or two days I\r\ndid that. But he continued to be ill, he became rather worse! Then one day the\r\ndoctors gave up all hope. I was weeping standing a little away from him.\r\nSuddenly I saw a girl by the side of my grandfather, and I was astonished, she\r\nlooked exactly like myself. Then I asked someone near me if he could see\r\nanyone by my grandfather <span style=\'font-family:\"Book Antiqua\"\'>―</span> \'No,\r\nI don\'t see anybody\'. Then I went to the bedside, and the image and I stood\r\ntogether. Gradually my grandfather was cured. From that time on, wherever there\r\nis any danger, any difficulty, this image of myself comes, and helps me. So\r\nwhen you wanted to go in that bus I saw the same figure coming to me and\r\ntelling me, \'Beware\'. I don\'t know who she is.&quot; </p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:10.05pt;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>So\r\nthis is the story.

It changes, yes, according to your age, slowly but for\r\nsometime you are the same. These inner forms are changeful; they are not\r\nrestricted to one rigid figure. Still they are recognisable. There is a\r\nplasticity which is very natural; according to the situation, according to your\r\nmood, according to your feeling, they change. But the most important, the most\r\noriginal form is your psychic being <span style=\'font-family:\"Book Antiqua\"\'>―</span>\r\nyour true being <span style=\'font-family:\"Book Antiqua\"\'>―</span> that which we\r\nmust strive to realise and attain. As the Mother says: It is the Divine\r\npersonality in each one of us. Your outer personality is sometimes only a\r\ncaricature, but still it tries to reflect, though with difficulty, something of\r\nthe needs and urges of this inmost reality of yours. Someone has asked me:\r\n&quot;How to find, how to know this inner being, the true being in me?&quot;\r\nFor, as the poet here says, he can\'t touch you and you can\'t touch him, but\r\nwhat you want is to touch that person. The fact is that it is not so altogether\r\nout of contact, not altogether <span style=\'font-family:\"Book Antiqua\"\'>―</span>\r\nunless a man is a total villain, which is very rare. You can\'t obliterate that\r\ntrue existence of you, it is there. It expresses itself in all the movements\r\nthat are good and noble and selfless. Whenever you see something beautiful or\r\ndo something nice, be sure that it is your psychic being that sees or does it.\r\nThe psychic being in you is the Mother <span style=\'font-family:\"Book Antiqua\"\'>―</span>\r\nfor it is an emanation of Herself that She has put in you, in order to protect\r\nyou. When you see the sunset and feel happy, it is the psychic being in you\r\nthat sees it. It is a small beginning but it is a beginning. Let your psychic\r\nbeing guide your acts. The only thing necessary is to be sincere. You have to\r\nbe sincere. First day you will find it very difficult, second day you will find\r\nit easier, third day it will become still easier and then on the fourth day it\r\nwill become your nature. It is not easy, but if you try you will be able to do\r\nit.<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;\r\nmso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none;border:medium none;\r\nmso-border-bottom-alt:solid windowtext .75pt;padding:0in;mso-padding-alt:0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<span\r\nstyle=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;\'>Page – 48<o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:right;line-height:150%; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><i>&nbsp;<span\r\nstyle=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;color:blue\'><a\r\nhref=\"file:///F|/Inetpub/wwwroot/new-saa.info/_StaticContent/SriAurobindoAshram/-04-Early-Disciples/-01-Nolini-Kanta-Gupta/Works-of-Nolini-Kanta-Gupta/Volume-1/index\"><span style=\'text-decoration:none;text-underline:\r\nnone\'></span><span style=\'text-decoration:none;text-underline:\r\nnone\'></span><span style=\'text-decoration:none;text-underline:\r\nnone\'><a href=\"-00_-Content\"><img border=0 width=69 height=19 id=\"_x0000_i1032\"\r\nsrc=\"_Jpeg%20image/set10_home_on.gif\"></a></span></a></span></i></p>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n		</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n</body>\r\n\r\n</html>\r\n','-07_Occult Experiences','','publish','closed','open','','07_occult-experiences','','','2021-11-23 17:58:47','2021-11-23 17:58:47','',0,'http://collectedworksofnolinikantagupta.com/index.php/2021/11/23/07_occult-experiences/',0,'post','',0),(2002,1,'2021-11-23 17:58:47','2021-11-23 17:58:47','<html xmlns:v=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml\"\r\nxmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40\">\r\n\r\n<head>\r\n<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=\"text/html; \">\r\n<title>Ramprasad</title>\r\n\r\n</head>\r\n\r\n<body lang=EN-US style=\'tab-interval:.5in\'>\r\n\r\n<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse\" width=\"100%\">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td>\r\n<p align=\"right\" class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:center; line-height:150%;margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><b>\r\n<font size=\"4\">Ramprasad</font><o:p></o:p></b></p>\r\n<div class=Section1>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'margin-left:1.0in;text-align:justify;text-indent:\r\n.5in;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;\r\ntext-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>&nbsp;</p>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:center; line-height:150%; margin-left:1in; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">(1)</p>\r\n<div class=Section1>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:center;mso-line-height-alt:10.55pt;\r\nmso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; line-height:150%; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>This time I have found the\r\nsecret.¹</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>One who has the secret has\r\ntaught me the secret. ²</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>I have found a man who\r\ncomes from a land</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;tab-stops:21.8pt;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span\r\nstyle=\'mso-tab-count:1\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span><span class=GramE>where</span> there is\r\nno night.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>Day or evening, both are\r\nequal to me now.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;tab-stops:21.8pt;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span\r\nstyle=\'mso-tab-count:1\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Lo!

You have\r\nto cut them down, dry them – they must be dead before they can be used as\r\nplanks for the bridge. The sharp edge of a concentrated consciousness – the\r\nsense of the unreality and inanity of this existence – is the axe for cutting\r\nthe growth of life.</font><o:p></o:p></p><span lang=EN-GB\r\nstyle=\'font-size:12.0pt\'>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:11.75pt;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<font face=\"Times New Roman\"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></font></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;mso-line-height-alt:\r\n10.55pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; line-height:150%; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<font face=\"Times New Roman\">VI</font></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;mso-line-height-alt:\r\n10.55pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; line-height:150%; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<font face=\"Times New Roman\"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></font></p>\r\n\r\n</span>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'margin-left:1.0in;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<font face=\"Times New Roman\">Whom do you\r\naccept?

These lines or\r\nchannels are sometimes identified with the nervous system but they are more\r\nsubtle than the material substance, more vital than physical. Their effective\r\nexpres&shy;sion, their principal agency in the physical is the respiratory system.\r\nTheir numbers are variously counted, sometimes sixty-four, sometimes\r\nthirty-four, but the principal ones are three. These form a trinity and follow\r\nthe line of the spinal cord. They are the famous \'Ida\', \'Pingala\' and\r\n\'Susumna.\' Ida and Pingala are on either side of the spinal cord, the central\r\none being the Susumna. The two on either side are the ascending and the\r\ndescending lines, (sometimes they are represented as the twins, knowledge and\r\npower); the central holds the balance between the two, representing the\r\nconsciousness of unity or synthesis.

Well, she is in good company. One remembers the Vedic\r\nSarama or Sarameya. The West too has its Hound of Heaven. Only the term here\r\nhas been put in its vernacular form.

Her individual consciousness is identi&shy;fied with the universal\r\nMother consciousness. And as such while she casts her glance into herself, into\r\nthe depth of her womb, she finds the entire universe there and it comes out in\r\na burst. But she notes that the first creation is only a world of the mere\r\nsenses, the world of desires and it was not what she wanted. Therefore she\r\nsevered the life-line that held it – as though the umbilical cord – by a stroke\r\nof the concentrated luminous energy that her consciousness was. So the wrong\r\nmanifestation, the false world (of Maya and Mara) dissolved. and\r\ndisappeared. And in its stead the true, the world of truth – that is the void –\r\nwas firmly established, never to move or change. The process is a difficult\r\npath and only a heroic soul can go through it.</font><o:p></o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-indent:10.05pt;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none;

It is\r\ndifficult to spot it, because it is a black thing moving in blackness –\r\nignorance enveloped in ignorance. Tamo asit tamasa gudham.\r\nIt burrows a hole in the earth consciousness, enters into the basic\r\ninconscience, steals all the light and happiness from above and hides them in the\r\nunderground darkness. No spiritual realisation can come and stay unless this\r\nnibbling enemy is tracked and brought to light. The Veda gives a similar image.\r\nThe panis, the dark Asuras seize even the sun and\r\nstore it away in their secret caverns. Indra, the lord of the Divine Mind, has\r\nto come and with his fulgurating thunderbolt pierce the hills – the earth-built\r\nconsciousnes and rescue and release the Light. Even\r\nso, here the poet says, the mouse, the ignorant consciousness, must rise into\r\nthe sky of the luminous mindlessness, attain a steadfast concentration, then it\r\nwill lose its normal restlessness; when it is filled with the consciousness of\r\nthe true Guru, the divine Master, then it becomes stable and tran&shy;quillised –\r\nit is no more fidgety bound in its inferior consciousness – its bondages snap,\r\nit is free. The little ignorant being of small mind is freed into the luminous\r\nvastness of the Buddha-consciousness. Then only can he taste of the nectar of\r\nimmortality for which he yearned even in his ignorant states.</font><o:p></o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'margin-left:6.7pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:\r\n-6.7pt;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;\r\ntext-autospace:none;

Nirvana is the barren cow, the bullock is its\r\nenergy or tapas and the milk is the supreme Joy. The three evenings must be the\r\nclose or end or setting of the three domains of worldly existence – body, life\r\nand mind. The thief is the higher consciousness guarding at the top and he has\r\nstolen away the world and the worldly objects. Similarly the lion is the Power\r\nof the Higher Consciousness and the jackal the prowling creature of the dark\r\nworld. But the fight between the two is hard and equal, neither wanting to give\r\nup.</font><o:p></o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'mso-line-height-alt:11.75pt;mso-pagination:none;\r\nmso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none;

He has little concern about himself. His thoughts, feelings\r\nand acts are in relation to a wider frame of reference. The wider the frame,\r\nthe higher the status of the being; there is an ascending scale in the\r\nstructure of human life and society. There are gradations that mount from\r\nnarrower ranges, moving towards vaster and vaster ranges, taking the person\r\ninto greater and purer degrees of impersonality. We start, for example, from\r\nthe lowest and narrowest range, namely, the family, and extend ourselves more\r\nand more to the next range, the nation, then to mankind and then still farther\r\nto transcendent ranges.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:.15in;line-height:\r\n150%;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\r\n</span>Sri Aurobindo from his very birth was such an impersonal\r\npersonality–and, in the very highest sense. He had never the consciousness of a\r\nparticular individual person: all reference to a personal frame of his was\r\ndeleted from the texture of his nature and character. There was some reference\r\nto the family frame in a very moderate way, almost casually: the stress was\r\nmuch more on the next higher frame, the national. In its time the national\r\nframe was very strong and played a great part; and yet even there it was not an\r\nend in itself, the frame of humanity always loomed large behind. In fact it was\r\nthat that gave a greater and truer value and significance to the national\r\nframe. The national is but a ladder to humanity, it is a unit in the human\r\ncollectivity.

Indeed\r\nit was this that lay at the bottom of Sri Aurobindo\'s consciousness as the\r\nbedrock of his being which gave the whole tone and temper of his life, its\r\nmeaning and purpose. Even when not overt and patent this noumenal personality\r\nwas always there insistent from behind; it gave a peculiar rhythm and stress,\r\nnewness and freshness and a profound element of purposefulness to the whole\r\nlife, even to the activities of the earlier and narrower frames. For it was\r\nlike viewing everything through the eyes of infinity and eternity, the eye wide\r\nextended in heaven as the Vedic Rishi says, the third eye. </p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;line-height:150%;text-autospace:\r\nideograph-numeric; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>In other words,\r\nthe yogi, the Divine, the Impersonal man in Sri Aurobindo was the real person\r\nalways there from the very birth. Thus we see him starting life exactly with\r\nthe thing where every one ends. In his inner being he had not to pass through\r\nthe gradations that lead an ordinary person gradually towards the widening\r\nranges of consciousness and existence. In all the stations of his life, in\r\nevery sphere and status Sri Aurobindo was doing his duties, that is, his work\r\n– kartavyam karma – selflessly, which means with no sense of self, or perhaps we \r\nshould say, with supreme Selfhoodness; for such is the character, the very nature of the born yogi, the\r\nGodman. The duties done for and within a frame of life tend always to overflow,\r\nas it were, the boundaries and do not always strictly follow the norm of the\r\nlimited frame. For example, even while in the family life, in the midst of\r\nrelatives and close friends he was never moved by mere attachment or worldly\r\nties, he was impelled to do what he had to in the circumstances, unattached,\r\nfree, under another command. Again, when he chose the larger field of national\r\nlife, here too, he was not limited to that frame, his patriotism was not\r\nchauvinism or a return to the parochialism of the past; his patriotism was\r\nbroad-based upon the sense of human solidarity and even the broad-based\r\nhumanity was not broad enough for the consciousness in him; for humanity does\r\nnot mean mere humanitarianism, charity, benevolence, or service to mankind.\r\nTrue humanity can be or is to be reached by pushing it still farther into the\r\nDivinity where men are not merely brothers or even portions of the Divine but\r\none with Him, the self-same being and personality.<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;\r\ntab-stops:85.65pt 282.45pt;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<span\r\nstyle=\'font-size:10.0pt;\'>Page – 4<o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<div class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:17.5pt;\r\ntab-stops:85.65pt 282.45pt;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric\'>\r\n\r\n<hr size=2 width=\"100%\" align=center>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'margin-top:0;text-align:justify;line-height:150%;\r\ntext-autospace:ideograph-numeric; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\r\n</span>Thus, Sri Aurobindo was an ideal worker, the perfect workman doing the\r\nwork appropriate to the field of work according to its norm, faultless in\r\nexecution. As a family man, as a citizen, as a patriot, he carried out his\r\nappointed function not in any personal sense with the feeling or consciousness\r\nof any individual personality but a large impersonal personality free from\r\nego-sense which is the hallmark of a luminous cosmic consciousness, based upon\r\na still higher and transcendent standing.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:11.5pt;line-height:\r\n150%;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\r\n</span>Sri Aurobindo was a man of action absolutely in the Gita\'s sense of the\r\nword.

This does not naturally mean that one has to be bound to the current\r\nframe, bound to the conventional, attached to what is customary, transitional\r\nand formal; on the contrary as I have said, Sri Aurobindo in his stride was\r\nalways transgressing and overflowing the borders, he was a revolutionary, even\r\nan iconoclast, for nothing short of the supreme and complete and integral truth\r\nsatisfied the urge of consciousness in him; in this sense each step of the scale\r\nserved as a jumping board to the higher, indeed to the highest inherent or\r\nhidden in every one of them.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:11.25pt;line-height:\r\n150%;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;\r\n</span>It was this secret ultimate truth that overshadowed, brooded over all\r\nthese stages and steps and occupations he passed through: they only led up to that\r\ntranscendent reality, but it was the sense, constant sense of that reality that\r\nlent a special character to all his karma. This. urge towards the\r\nsupreme reality, this transcendence, did not mean for him a rejection of the\r\ndomains passed through: it is a subsuming, that is to say, uplifting the\r\nnarrower, the lower status, integrating them into the higher: even as the soil\r\nat the root of the plant is subsumed and transmuted into the living sap that\r\nmounts high up the plant towards its very top, to the light and energy above.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:11.5pt;line-height:\r\n150%;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;\r\n</span>In the scheme and pattern of human existence in the hierarchy that is\r\ncollective life, Sri Aurobindo sought to express the play of the supreme Truth,\r\nexpress materially that which works always in secret and behind the veil.

The basic ego-sense lies in the individual;\r\nbut it has its formations in the collectivity also at all the different degrees\r\nand levels of consciousness. We have spoken of the mounting frames of\r\nreference, and accordingly there is a family ego, a national ego and even there\r\nis a humanity ego. The collective ego is as strong as the individual ego. It is\r\nonly in the transcendent consciousness, the consciousness of the Divine who is\r\nthe one true Person, that the inferior egos are eliminated or sublimated and\r\ncan find their true person.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:.15in;line-height:\r\n150%;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\r\n</span>Thus the true process of impersonalisation is re-personalisation; in\r\nother words, to be conscious of, to grow into and become the true reality of\r\nthe being behind the ego formation.
