Here is a beautiful inspirational verse by the teaching partner of the great Yogi Sri Aurobindo – she is known simply as “The Mother”. They guided an ashram together for many years in Pondicherry, India- focusing on the awakening of the divine within the human heart. They are certainly two of the great spiritual masters of the 20th century. In response to the question: What do we mean by “divine”?, she answers:
“This is what we mean by ‘Divine’:
All the knowledge we have to acquire,
all the power we have to obtain,
all the love we have to become,
all the perfection we have achieve,
all the harmonious and progressive poise we have to manifest in light and joy,
all the new and unknown splendours that we have to be realised.”
