In this year of the first American trip in space, Mother strikes at the heart of the great mystery: It's double! It's the same world and yet it's - what ? In one world, everything is harmonious, without any possibility of disease, death, or accident - a miraculous - and in the other world everything is awry. Yet it's the same world of matter-separated by what? More and more I feel it's a question of a vibration in the matter. What is this vertical time that suddenly opens up a new way of living and being in matter where things are no longer the inexorable consequence or cause of one another ? A kind of absoluteness in each second. A brand-new world at each second, without trace, age, or past imprint. And what is this massive immobility in a lightning-fast movement, this speckling of vibrations, as if Mother were no longer experiencing her body at a macroscopic level but at the level of subatomic physics. And sixty years of spiritual life crumble as a far more serious illusion before - a new Divine? Or a new mode of life in matter - the next mode ? I am absolutely in the process of cutting a path through the jungle.

Four and a half billion members of Homo sapiens are in the process of learning the futility of their ways of existence, just as one day some fish learned the futility of their gills on dry land, and evolved into amphibians. If those fish had sought to improve their aquatic Science, devised new fills and new philosophies, they would have been completely beside the point. Now the question is whether we will find the WAY, not to improve the human suffocation, but to be and live otherwise on this earth. Is there within this human body a handle, a lever, that would enable us to change our way of being on earth, just as the first mental vibration some three million years ago paved the way for Einstein and the Boeing 747? What vibration? Where, in the body? Could it be that the primary form of living matter, the cell, holds a power of consciousness or a "vibratory mode" capable of making all our present mental devices and pointless artifices obsolete? In other words, a Mind of the Cells which will open up to us new sources of energy, new methods of communication, a new power to handle matter. A new biology and a new consciousness which will enable us to face the challenge of a species on its way to self-destruction. Such is the incredible discovery of Sri Aurobindo and Mother in the cells of the body, at a time when the earth is suffocating. For "Salvation is physical," said Mother, who, at the age of eighty, dared to knock at the last door in the body, and who made the most extraordinary discovery since Darwin.

Politics & Social Sciences

Philosophy

The Sannyasi chronicles the voyages of the soul, which others call reincarnations, a perpetual story unfolding in three cycles or three lives - three islands situated in this country or another, seemingly in India, by Egypt, and Norway's frozen lakes, are also present. The protagonist, Nil, ever in search of something else - a new human condition on earth, free of the Machine and of the laws of the mind - has burned all the bridges to find it. He has given up all worldly pursuits to become a mendicant sannyasi, emerging into a vaster, cosmic consciousness and new perceptions, ultimately to realize that he may have gained the freedom of the summits but has lost the earth.

History & Criticism

What if man is a "transitional being," as Sri Aurobindo said long ago, only preparing the way for what is to come next? And perhaps we don't need any computers or mental acrobatics to prepare the next man. Perhaps we don't need any spiritual exercies or religions either. Perhaps BEING is enough. But being with a fire of truth in the heart, with a cry of need calling out to the truth of the earth, a cry of suffocation amid the senseless chaos of the present earth - a call for what we ARE behind the game of looks and the mental machinery which shackles us so cleverly. Perhaps a simple cry is enough. (Country of Origin: USA)

We are not at the end of a civilization but at the end of a cycle in the geological or paleontological sense. "Man is a transitional being," said Sri Aurobindo. This transition from the human species to another species is the question of our time. How does one make the transition to a new species? How does one build a new species? What is the nature of such a physiological transformation, and hence what is the nature of matter itself, on which and in which we appear to move in an inexorable round.

Mother or the Mutation of Death

Why did Sri Aurobindo leave his body? Why did Mother leave? Where are they, and what is happening? Is there perhaps already another "environment" here, on earth, trying to dig through our layers of mud and propel us by force into a new world?

Mother or the Divine Materialism

Change is already accomplished. There only remains to implement it fully, in broad daylight. The goal of this short book is to try to explain the specific conditions of this change, how it can take place and is already taking place-and in what way it concerns every human being. The change in question here is not external, mechanical or scientific, but internal and human. It is a change in the very consciousness of the cells. The question is to implement another way of living on earth, a being after man as radically different from us as we may be from our ancestor, the ape. If such a being is to see the light of day on this earth, the evolutionary wisdom and simplicity will produce it from us, from what we are today, and not from some mystical and misty heaven, or out of a proliferation of computers-there must be a link between it and us. SRI AUROBINDO and MOTHER have devoted their life to the search for and development of that evolutionary link between present man and an unknown, but ineluctable, future species. SATPREM, who continues their work, tells us that the roots of that new being are alive and well on this earth, and that they are steadily, inexorably growing, while the world goes about its usual business. . . But in order for that new way of living life to develop fully, it must first confront and overcome the Eternal Enemy: death. For that new terrestrial life has this peculiarity that it is WITHOUT DEATH.

The Revolt of the Earth

This first volume is in great part devoted to what might be called Satprem's psychological preparation, from his arrival in Pondicherry in February 1954, after having knocked on all doors of the old world.; Ultimately, he would stay beside Mother for 19 years, listening to her and recording the account of her experiences in the cellular consciousness - what forms the 13 volumes of the Agenda. Satprem, True Love, as Mother called him, was a reluctant disciple. Formed in the French Cartesian mould, a freedom fighter against the Nazis during the Second World War, and in love with his freedom, he was always ready to run away, yet always coming back, drawn by a love greater than his love for freedom. Being with Mother was, in his own words, like struggling with the jungle, machete in hand - ultimately to melt, to fall in love, so beautiful it is... It was fascinating and detestable, overpowering and warm. One felt like screaming and biting, and running away, but always returning. Slowly she conquered him, slowly he came to understand the poignant drama of this lone indomitable woman struggling to unseal man's evolutionary future, to open the door to a new species after man. And how does a door open to a new species?
