SAVITRI, BOOK VII, THE BOOK OF YOGA
CANTO VI, NIRVANA AND THE ALL-NEGATING ABSOLUTE
The Second Part
Savitri follows the guidance of the mighty and uplifting voice, which tells her to cast off her mind and step back from form and name and annul herself that only God may be She achieves the complete silence of her mind. In writing Savitri’s experience, Sri Aurobindo describes the many sources of thoughts and impulses, and explains what they are. In this part of Canto VI, Sri Aurobindo is describing his own first positive spiritual of 1908, which led him to the experience of Nirvana. He said this experience made possible all the rest of the sadhana.
