It will take up not only the whole characteristic experience which we recognize as constituting the spiritual life but also all which we now exclude from that category but which is capable of divinisation, not excluding whatever of the earth-nature and the earth-life can be transformed by the touch of the supermind and taken up in to the manifested life of the Spirit. “The descent of the Supermind will bring to one who receives it and is fulfilled in the truth-conciousness all the possibilities of the divine life. The Supermind, because it is a truth-conciousness, has this knowledge inherent in it and this power of true existence it’s course is straight and can go direct to it’s aim, it’s field is wide and can be made illimitable”. “The supermind in it’s very essence a truth-conciousness, a conciousness always free from the Ignorance, which is the foundation of our present natural and evolutionary existence and from which nature is trying to arrive at self-knowledge and world-knowledge and a right conciousness and the right use of our existence in the universe. It is indeed so that life and mind involved in Matter have realized themselves here for only what is involved can evolve, otherwise there could be no emergence.” In fact, a supermind is already here but it is involved, concealed behind this manifest mind, life and Matter and not yet acting overtly or in it’s own power: it it acts, it is through these inferior powers and modified by their characters and so not yet recognisable.It is only by the approach and arrival of the descending Supermind that it can be liberated upon earth and reveal itself in the action of our material, vital and mental parts so that these lower powers can become portions of a total divinised activity of our whole being: it is that that will bring to us a completely realised divinity or the divine life. “Supermind is the grade of existence beyond mind, life and Matter and, as mind, life and Matter have manifested on the earth, so too must Supermind in the inevitable course of things manifest in the world of Matter. “…the supermind is a Truth-consciousness in which the Divine Reality, fully manifested, no longer works with the instrumentation of Ignorance“. But the supramental Truth-consciousness would not be absent from these planes, for it is an inherent power of Sachchidananda.” “Beyond the Supramental plane of consciousness, which is an intermediate step from overmind and mind to the complete experience of Sachchidananda, are the greatest heights of the manifested Spirit: here surely existence would not at all be based on the determination of the One in multiplicity, it would manifest solely and simply a pure identity in oneness. They tried to rise individually to the Supramental plane, but they did not bring it down and make it a permanent part of the earth-consciousness.” “The vedic Rishis never attained to the Supermind for the earth or perhaps did not even make the attempt. “Supermind is between the SACHCHIDANANDA and the lower creation.” Vallalar & Sri Aurobindo’s Version of Nuclear physics.WHO IS ARUT PERUM JYOTHI ANDAVAR OR THE VAST GRACE-LIGHT?.Integral psychology: Consciousness, spirit, psychology and therapy.
