And Savitri looked on Death and answered not.
Almost it seemed as if in his symbol shape
The world’s darkness had consented to Heaven-light
And God needed no more the Inconscient’s screen.
A mighty transformation came on her.
Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book X, Canto IV, page 664.
A work that has terrestrial progress as its goal cannot be started unless it has the sanction and help of the Divine.It cannot endure unless there is a constant material growth which satisfies the will of Nature.
It cannot be destroyed prematurely except by human ill-will, which then serves as an instrument of forces hostile to the Divine, which are striving to delay as much as possible His manifestation and the transformation of the earth.
****
One thing you must know and never forget: in the work of transformation all that is true and sincere will always be kept; only what is false and insincere will disappear.****
Obscurity will disappear more and more as the transformation progresses.****
Each one of you represents one of the difficulties that have to be surmounted for the transformation.****
Unless one has an endless patience and an unshakable perseverance, it is better not to start on the way of transformation.Let each suffering pave the way to transformation.****
Be quiet and gather strength and force not only to do work but also to achieve the transformation.****
Perfect integral balance: one is ready for transformation.
****
The constant remembrance of the Divine is indispensable for transformation.
****
Be simply sincere in your obedience to the Divine—this will take you far on the way to transformation.****
Silence all outside noise, aspire for the Divine’s help; open integrally to it then it comes and surrender to its action, and it will effectively bring about your transformation.****
With the Divine Love is the supreme power of Transformation.****
With the Divine’s Love is the power of Transformation. It has this power because it is for the sake of Transformation that it has given itself to the world and manifested everywhere. Not only into man but into all the atoms of Matter has it infused itself in order to bring the world back to the original Truth. The moment you open to it, you receive also its power of Transformation. But it is not in terms of quantity that you can measure it—what is essential is the true contact; for you will find that the true contact with it is sufficient to fill at once the whole of your being.****
And when the day will come for the manifestation of the supreme Love, for the crystallised, concentrated descent of the supreme Love, that will indeed be the moment of Transformation. Because nothing will be able to resist That.
