The Descent of Mahākuṇdalinī
Canto Thirty-Eight
Now the way must cut through brahmāndhāra,
And Savitri meet god in a godless form.
By whatever it may be known or perceived
That ceases in the genuine night, the sacred void,
And only remains the will that cancels
The burden of death present in the mortal’s breast.
Above all stood the wonder of the triple sun,
Bliss and consciousness and absolute truth.
Suddenly the cave opened, and she saw
The primal might seated on the topaz rock,
And heard seven great notes; flooded her the sound
Occult, sohaṃ-oṃ-haṃ-yaṃ-raṃ-vaṃ-laṃ.

Brahmāndhāra: Darkness of Brahma or the Great Night, the Night of God; Dryden’s is genuine night full of idiocy and ignorance.
sohaṃ, oṃ, haṃ, yaṃ, raṃ, vaṃ, laṃ are the seven sounds that come from the seven Chakras, or occult centres of consciousness from above down below, in the subtle-physical. The seven musical notes sā, ré, ga, ma, pa, dha, nī, or do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si have their origin in these centres rising from below above.
VII:5 The Finding of the Soul
This promise can bear fruit only in the deep soul of Savitri. While nearing the mystic cave she experiences a strange darkness that knows not the Unknown, all her human faculties cease to exist. But there is remembrance and silent she moves on, and all is the spirit’s vastness. Now she is standing in front of a rock-temple with the figures of gods and goddesses carved on its walls. She sees in stone images breathing presences, deathless and divine. They are the supreme aspects climbing to Sachchidānanda. Savitri crosses the tunnel through the last rock and suddenly Soul and Oversoul rush into each other. They become one. The transcendental Mother’s Power, the divine Mahākuṇdalinī, floods her entire being. Lotus after dynamic lotus opens, and the lower Nature becomes an instrument of the higher. There is the greatening of spiritual happiness everywhere. Across death and birth the first stage of perfection is reached in life.
Savitri Book 7 Canto 5 – The Finding of the Soul
All underwent a high celestial change:
Breaking the black Inconscient’s blind mute wall,
Each part of the being trembling with delight
Lay overwhelmed with tides of happiness
In the country of the lotus of the head
In the castle of the lotus twixt the brows
In the passage of the lotus of the throat ||127.11||
In the kingdom of the lotus of the heart ||127.16||
In the navel lotus’ broad imperial range ||127.17||
In the narrow nether centre’s petty parts ||127.18||
In the deep place where once the Serpent slept,
A firm ground was made for Heaven’s descending might. ||127.19||
Break+ing| the black| In+con|+scient’s blind| mute wall,|
Each part| of the be|+ing trem|+bling with| de+light|
Lay o|+ver+whelmed| with tides| of hap|+pi+ness|
In the coun|+try of| the lo|+tus of| the head|
In the cas|+tle of| the lo|+tus twixt| the brows|
In the pas|+sage of| the lo|+tus of| the throat|
In the king|+dom of| the lo|+tus of| the heart|
In the na|+vel lo|+tus’s broad| im+pe|+ri+al range|
In the nar|+row neth|+er cen|+tres’ pet|+ty parts|
In the| deep place| where once| the Ser|+pent slept,|
A firm ground| was made| for Heav|+en’s de+scend|+ing might.|
