1600th ... passive yet parts in actions ...

When the Divine Mother takes up the being

All the parts, now participants, attentive!

Each one has role to play distinctive 

Paced, widened and raised accordingly...

One by one, or two together or simultaneously 

Emptied, cleaned, healed and again refilled...

The Divine nectar thick, white in slow stream

Fills up from top to bottom from the Divine origin...

Then being passive yet parts in actions active

As per guidance and on call, for the Divine directives...

Love you Beloved Divine Mother...

The parts of being such as the mind, the vital, the body, the psychic being and their gradations and aspects and personalities form the person perceived by the sensory world.

When the sincere offering of all these parts through aspiration completes, the Divine Grace, due to the permission and acceptance, flows in the being.

If awareness is also gifted and the being is trained with the ability, gets to observe one's own self ... within from without.

And then the super sight of that gentle, soothing, joyous stream of thick, white, shiney liquid...

One gets to witness through the inner eye and vast vast wideness within...

O Mother! At your lotus feet...

Thank you...

But if the right conditions of receptivity were established, if the lid of the psyche were pierced, if the act of surrender were spontaneous, the results could be different, and even decisive. Here, for example, is Sahana Devi's compelling description of the sudden flowering of one's consciousness in the Ashram and the way this charged one with an immaculate new power of action:

If one could place oneself in tune with the force of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo constantly at work on us, amazing things are apt to happen. One can discern one's life moving in another rhythm, one gets a state of entering into a world quite different. Once one can enter into the current one can see that one has nothing else to do. Whatsoever there is to be done, accepted or rejected, is done automatically. There is no effort, no questions, no feeling of pain in rejecting anything nor even any vain pleasure to become someone. One feels oneself to be someone quite different living in another world, watching all from another level. One can feel an endless ardour, a love for all, that comes from elsewhere.

*On the Mother Chapter 27 Surrender and Grace 356

When the consciousness is narrow and personal or shut in the body, it is difficult to receive from the Divine - the wider it expands, the more it can receive. A time comes when it feels as wide as the world and able to receive all the Divine into itself. SA
