Arabindo ahsram , savithri book

God and Devil are not two separate entities:





Recently i visited the sacred place pondicherry aurobindo ashram. I find the place is quiete interesting to live peacefully with philosophical thinking and practice. Lots lots of foreigners settled there and move in that french colony on bicycles and foot. The samadhi is very peaceful and good meditation place. I just got a chance to quickly go through a translated version to savithri . But some points in that book perplexed me and made me stop reading that. The translator was discussing about spirits, devils and accepting that they are there as really as God is there. He also confirmed that Shri aurobindo (aurobindo), Matha ji also spoke , commanded those spirits or devils. Aurobindo observed that his wall clocks were stopped by some devils, spirits and he commanded them to go away. This has thrown me into confusion. Because my gurus never mentioned about devils, spirits. Even if they are there, they can not venture to come to the vicinity of such learned , sacred person and they never play with them. Second point where i got confused is... the author was mentioning some worlds he visited. He wrote that there is a world where he could not find Satyam (truth) there. This statement confirmed that some thing wrong with the writer. Because Truth alone prevails at all times and at all places by definition. So, i closed the book and came away from further research in this cult. Sundara chaithanya was a great preacher cum philosopher that he strongly established from Adwaitha vada (non dualism theory) that the super atman, or God only prevails every where at all times and nothing second entity exists. Even if you agree that devils are there, they are the other form of God. If God is different from devil, the supremacy of God is lost and he would be afraid of the second entity which is ridiculous.
