Savitri – Eine Legende und ein Symbol. Sri Aurobindo

СКАЧАТЬ feigns for magic’s freaks a binding cause.

      All worlds she makes the partners of her deeds,

      Accomplices of her mighty violence,

      Her daring leaps into the impossible:

      From every source she has taken her cunning means,

      She draws from the free-love marriage of the planes

      Elements for her creation’s tour-de-force:

      A wonder-weft of knowledge incalculable,

      A compendium of divine invention’s feats

      She has combined to make the unreal true

      Or liberate suppressed reality:

      In her unhedged Circean wonderland

      Pell-mell she shepherds her occult mightinesses;

      Her mnemonics of the craft of the Infinite,

      Jets of the screened subliminal’s caprice,

      Tags of the gramarye of Inconscience,

      Freedom of a sovereign Truth without a law,

      Thoughts that were born in the immortals’ world,

      Oracles that break out from behind the shrine,

      Warnings from the daemonic inner voice

      And peeps and lightning-leaps of prophecy

      And intimations to the inner ear,

      Abrupt interventions stark and absolute

      And the Superconscient’s unaccountable acts,

      Have woven her balanced web of miracles

      And the weird technique of her tremendous art.

      This bizarre kingdom passed into his charge.

      As one resisting more the more she loves,

      Her great possessions and her power and lore

      She gave, compelled, with a reluctant joy;

      Herself she gave for rapture and for use.

      Absolved from aberrations in deep ways,

      The ends she recovered for which she was made:

      She turned against the evil she had helped

      Her engined wrath, her invisible means to slay;

      Her dangerous moods and arbitrary force

      She surrendered to the service of the soul

      And the control of a spiritual will.

      A greater despot tamed her despotism.

      Assailed, surprised in the fortress of her self,

      Conquered by her own unexpected king,

      Fulfilled and ransomed by her servitude,

      She yielded in a vanquished ecstasy,

      Her sealed hermetic wisdom forced from her,

      Fragments of the mystery of omnipotence.

      A border sovereign is the occult Force.

      A threshold guardian of the earth-scene’s Beyond,

      She has canalised the outbreaks of the Gods

      And cut through vistas of intuitive sight

      A long road of shimmering discoveries.

      The worlds of a marvellous Unknown were near,

      Behind her an ineffable Presence stood:

      Her reign received their mystic influences,

      Their lion-forces crouched beneath her feet;

      The future sleeps unknown behind their doors.

      Abysms infernal gaped round the soul’s steps

      And called to its mounting vision peaks divine:

      An endless climb and adventure of the Idea

      There tirelessly tempted the explorer mind

      And countless voices visited the charmed ear;

      A million figures passed and were seen no more.

      This was a forefront of God’s thousandfold house,

      Beginnings of the half-screened Invisible.

      A magic porch of entry glimmering

      Quivered in a penumbra of screened Light,

      A court of the mystical traffic of the worlds,

      A balcony and miraculous façade.

      Above her lightened high immensities;

      All the unknown looked out from boundlessness:

      It lodged upon an edge of hourless Time,

      Gazing out of some everlasting Now,

      Its shadows gleaming with the birth of gods,

      Its bodies signalling the Bodiless,

      Its foreheads glowing with the Oversoul,

      Its forms projected from the Unknowable,

      Its eyes dreaming of the Ineffable,

      Its faces staring into eternity.

      Life in him learned its huge subconscient rear;

      The little fronts unlocked to the unseen Vasts:

      Her gulfs stood nude, her far transcendences

      Flamed in transparencies of crowded light.

      A giant order was discovered here

      Of which the tassel and extended fringe

      Are the scant stuff of our material lives.

      This overt universe whose figures hide

      The secrets merged in superconscient light,

      Wrote clear the letters of its glowing code:

      A map of subtle signs surpassing thought
