The Winds of Wonder

He will have power to change life

Sri Aurobindo was preparing himself for the new creation. And last night he told me how the body would be. While he  was that new body, he at the same time explained to me how the superman’s body would be (the supramental being). I still have the vision … it had a colour … it was with a special luminosity which had that light. He was showing me his body and saying, “Here is how it is.” The form was almost the same.

I still have the memory there. It has entered the consciousness, it will come out one day. I kept the memory: It was the same thing as a luminescent body, but it wasn’t luminescent.

And I remembered the question, whether the principle of individuality persists; so something in me said, “Now you see, it’s like this!” I said, “It’s like this, there is NO MORE separation, but … but this marvel of complexity remains.” Everything that is has its own place, but when it’s in its place, then it’s perfectly harmonious. Oh, it was … it was a real revelation.

I think all those experiences are part of the consciousness of the supermind, the superman.

The impression is, “Yes, this is life! This is something.” All the rest is, even the body, constantly feels as if it’s knocking against obstacles. And I saw: the body was doing something else.

Maybe that’s how the superman will be? He will have a power to change life.

My body is going through extraordinary experiences, but impossible to tell. This body was built in a curious way, because every time it’s in external contact with wickedness, the will to hurt, to destroy, to cause harm, it doesn’t understand, and that gives it … like a kind of child’s sorrow: “How can that be? …” And I see that it’s used for a certain work, but … How to have constantly the true bodily attitude. … It’s a long, painstaking work, without… without anything fascinating.
