Aurobindo 179 Savitri Book 11
'In an ineffable world she lived fulfilled.'
'A virgin unity, a luminous spouse,
Housing a multitudinous embrace
To marry all in God's immense delight,
Bearing the eternity of every spirit,
Bearing the burden of universal love,
A wonderful mother of unnumbered souls.
All things she knew, all things imagined or willed: '
'A thousand doors of oneness was her heart.
A crypt and sanctuary of brooding light
Appeared, the last recess of things beyond.
Then in its rounds the enormous fiat paused,
Silence gave back to the Unknowable
All it had given. Still was her listening thought.
'And in the phantom of abolished Space
There was a voice unheard by ears that cried: '
'Choose, spirit, thy supreme choice not given again; Line 898 to
O stream, wide breaking of thy channel banks.' Line 909
Pristine so, words are built of Savitri's heights
A chance up there, will modern women be like Savitri?
'A point that disappears in the infinite, -
Felicity of the extinguished flame, '
'End of the trouble of thy wandering thoughts,
Close of the journeying of thy pilgrim soul.'
'Accept, O music, weariness of thy notes, '
'And silently the woman's heart replied: '
'Thy peace, O Lord, a boon within to keep
Amid the roar and ruin of wild Time
For the magnificent soul of man on earth.
Thy calm, O Lord, that bears thy hands of joy.'....
............My consciousness this moment,
O'Guru, I'm in awe....in invincible heights
Ineffable Thee embellishing poetic creation
My inquisitive apprehension, erring Thee may opine
May thereso, let Savitri in my self arise
Aroused thereso be knowledge and fortune
