Clarifying the Vision




I assume that the information I provide on the Vision (which Sri Aurobindo entrusted me/us) and other collateral experiences I relate is becoming material for reflection in several parts of the world. I´m aware of faithful readers in the Philippines and elsewhere in the world, readers whom I warmly salute, and in view that soon or later this interest may expand and reach students or followers of the Master in India or elsewhere, to which I guess the Vision is mainly directed because they own the keys to understand it better, I should resume here briefly some points  in order to clarify eventual possible doubts.

I  perfectly know the difference between a dream or a Vision, even though it may happen during sleep for given reasons.
The encounters with the Master happened mostly while I was myself in conscious sleep, not to be confused with lucid dreams: conscious sleep means to be perfectly conscious in the mental body while the physical is sleeping -and- the sub conscious is dreaming.
Conscious sleep, I discovered, allowed to severe the relation with both physical body and subconscious activity, while remaining in the awareness of being -perfectly conscious.
Man is a mental being said often the Master, and I had there the proof that it was perfectly so: I never had the sensation of missing something (the physical body) I was perfect as I was, in that mental body which was myself. I could never again identify with a physical body.
Nor confound the activities of that mental being (meeting the Master and the Vision) with these of the subconscious (dreams) which I had just left behind together with a sleeping physical body.

To erase the doubt that I may have confused  the "double" of Sri Aurobindo for himself, which existence is mentioned by Mother I believe, I should say it cannot stand because I seem to remember it almost wholly related with the vital plane, instead in this case it was wholly a mental experience and mental plane and mental being, an undivided consciousness and surely a condition of awareness where no mistake of perception is possible, to which I should sum up the deep reverence which I felt moved by the wonderful and glorious appearance of the Master and his concerned words.

The fact is I had not any special preference among Masters at that time  and I  similarly reverenced  Krishnamurty as much as Ramana Maharishi, and Ramakrishna as much as Yogananda, so there was no special reason why I should see Sri Aurobindo instead of any other Master. I wanted to keep a keen respect for them all but a serene independence because not much given to cult.
But instead, it was Him which I started to see relatively often in the course of a brief time.

I suspect was Him which I met in the experience of the fire raising from the sacrum,
which in a sense begins the series of encounters, but I could never confirm my suspect because the silent Presence left without identify himself. (see The Master of Wisdom and the Apprentice Visionary).

 Though I was request the Vision to be known, the idea to present the Vision in the way I did  was my own, and it could not be otherwise, I considered that without any additional element on my life or at least on my experiences on yoga and self-discovering this work would not stand on a firm ground, and surely the additional information would be reason of reflection for any genuine researcher.

Any additional information I provide is true at least in my field of experience, and only given to help understanding certain given processes which one may meet discovering yoga.
For instance, I realized that some akashic vision I had during that same time where meant as learning tools because all of them had something in common: different manifestations of individual or group consciousness in early history of the human being. In that  way, the early history combined with the future of the consciousness on Earth of the Vision in a great ensemble, meaningful at least to me which was learning and discovering all that material.

I have also commented about some historical social movement, persons and facts of different order, and though I just express my opinion and certainly not that of the Master, yet I consider my comments do fit in what is generally known and what the Vision and my own power of vision suggests me.

I should recognize that the Vision made me grow in understanding, though my gratefulness goes to the Master which promoted it and demonstrated that he was kindly overlooking any sincere effort on my side without me knowing about it. And my conclusion is that the Master is able to follow the spiritual development of any he so wishes, and that his activity far to be extinguished with his death in 1950 is still of tremendous actuality even at this very moment.

To end, I have came to the conclusion that I should give a series with the same title which specify on certain subjects left without clarifying or not too evident in their conclusion.
I beg forgive my English as most of this work was done with a low connection which gave me quite a trouble at the moment to improve its presentation, may be some pious soul will sometime try and correct it.
