Ques 3. "Then with a magic transformation’s speed They rushed into each other and grew one." (CANTO V: The Finding of the Soul) Is the being of Savitri which merges with her Soul the Higher Being who has descended as Savitri or is it surface being or awareness of Savitri? This seems to be describing the psychic transformation, with the discovery of the psychic being within the heart and then it's union with the surface soul. P526

She puts forth a small portion of herself, A being no bigger than the thumb of man Into a hidden region of the heart To face the pang and to forget the bliss, To share the suffering and endure earth’s wounds And labour mid the labour of the stars. This in us laughs and weeps, suffers the stroke, Exults in victory, struggles for the crown;

The heart Chakra awakened

In the kingdom of the lotus of the heart Love chanting its pure hymeneal hymn Made life and body mirrors of sacred joy

The last two Chakras

In the navel lotus’ broad imperial range Its proud ambitions and its master lusts Were tamed into instruments of a great calm sway To do a work of God on earthly soil. In the narrow nether centre’s petty parts Its childish game of daily dwarf desires Was changed into a sweet and boisterous play, A romp of little gods with life in Time. In the deep place where once the Serpent slept, There came a grip on Matter’s giant powers
