Abstract:

This article is verily based upon the Aurobindonion philosophy of life within the process of ascentdescent of soul and its journey in the cosmic phenomenon. He has propounded this theory through various writings and represented it exquisitely in his epic Savitri as an archetypal pattern. In involution Existence, Consciousness-Force, Bliss, Supermind, Mind, Psyche, Life, and Matter are in descending order whereas in evolution there must be an ascending order. The spirit manifests itself here in the body must be involved from the beginning in the whole of matter and in every knot formation and particle of matter, life, and whatever is above mind. By virtue of the principle of manifestation of Sachchidananda, for it is that which lies hidden in matter.
