SUPRAMENTAL REVELATION TRANSCENDS MENTAL SELF-REALIZATION & SPIRITUAL REALIZATION
The complexity of the higher stages is not for the fainthearted - because description of a developmental inevitabilty of the post-enlightenment stages (*not same as post-nirvanic stages) - grounded in multidimensional evolution into wholeness and transcendence, not influenced by personal opinions and feelings, psychadelics, or subconscious minds dream-like formations - transcend the boundaries of human understanding.
Aurobindo cautions: "Mind wants the supramental state to be a confirmation of its cherished ideas and preconception; the vital wants it to be a glorofication of its own desires; the physical wants it to be a rich prolongation of its own comforts and pleasures and habits."
Sri Aurobindo cracked the code of the ultimate Kosmic transcendent Reality, by comprehending the staggering complexity of the eternal Effulgence and its Powers that descended into his body-mind-soul complex. He wrote that, "The Saint, the sage, the seer, the inspired man of action, the creator - these are the summits of of being. Beyond him is the supramental being, the spiritual superman." I affirm this for him because both, he and I (independently) realized that:
"The descent of Light is not enough, it must be the descent of the whole higher consciousness, its Peace, Power, Knowledge, Love, Ananda. He wrote, and I agree that:
"The total ascent is impossible as long as sex-drive blocks the way; the descent is dangerous as long as sex-drive is powerful in the vital."
THE TRANSITION FROM THE HUMAN INTO THE DIVINE
Aurobindo asserted, and I agree that: "Everyone whose psychic being calls him to the spiritual path has the capacity for that path and can arrive at the goal if or as soon as he develops a single-pointed will towards that alone."
I claim same: "My conclusions is not founded on any mental opinion or preconcived moral idea, but on probative facts and on observation and experience. *skip
At any rate in this Yoga which seeks not only the essential experience of the Divine but a transformation of the whole being and nature, I have found it necessary of the sadhana to aim at the complete mastery of the sex force, otherwise the vital consciousness remains a turbit mixture, the turbity affecting the purity of the spiritualised mind and seriously hindering the upward turn of the forces of the body. *skip
The whole principle of this Yoga is to give oneself entirely to the Divine alone and to nobody and to nothing else, and to bring down into ourselves by union with the Divine Mother Power all the transcendental light, force, wideness, peace, purity, truth-consciousness and Ananda of the supramental Divine.
In this Yoga, therefore, there can be no place for vital relations or interchanges with others; any such relation or interchange immediately ties down the soul to the lower consciousness and its lower nature, prevents the true and full union with the Divine and hampers both the ascent to the supramental Truth consciousness and the descent of the supramental Ishwari Shakti. It is only after becoming one with the supramental Divine that we can find our true spiritual relations with others in the Divine; in that higher unity this kind of gross lower vital movement can have no place. *skip
The true divine Ananda in the physical has a different quality and movement and substance; self-existent in its essence, its manifestation is dependent only on an inner union with the Divine. *skip
Seek the Divine Love through the only gate through which it will consent to enter, the gate of the psychic being. The transformation of the sex-centre and its energy needed for the physical siddhi; for this energy is the support in the mental, vital and physical forces of the nature.
It has to be charged into a mass and a movement of intimate Light, Power and Bliss into the centre that can so change it. As to the workings afterwards, it is the supramental Truth and the creative vision and will of the Divine Mother that will determine it. But it will be a working of the conscious Truth, not of the Darkness and Ignorance to which sexual desire and enjoyment belongs; it will be a power of preservation and free desireless radiation of the life-forces and not of their throwing out and waste."
