Aurobindo invokes them and asks them to take possession of his
nature. But for one who wants union with the Supreme, for one
who aspires for the supreme Realisation, this cannot be sufficient.
This is why at the end he calls upon Kali to give him the power to
go beyond them all.
For Kali is the most powerful aspect of the universal Mother
and her power is greater than that of all the gods in her creation.
To unite with her means therefore to become more vast, more
complete, more powerful than all the gods together and that is
why Sri Aurobindo places union with her above and beyond all the
others.
(CWM:10:84-85) The Mother
He invokes all these Vedic gods and tells each one to take posses-
sion of him; and then he tells Kali to free him from their influence!
It is very amusing!
It’s written in black and white, but the people here read and
don’t understand what they’re reading, and that’s a pity. They
have to be told, ‘This means that’!
(The Mother, Conversation with a disciple, Feb-11, 1961)
Nothing that is impossible
There is nothing that is impossible to her (Divine Shakti) who
is the conscious Power and universal Goddess all creative from
eternity and armed with the Spirit’s omnipotence. All knowledge,
all strengths, all triumph and victory, all skill and works are in her
hands and they are full of the treasures of the Spirit and of all per-
fections and siddhis. She is Maheshwari, goddess of the supreme
knowledge, and brings to us her vision for all kinds and wide-
nesses of truth, her rectitude of the spiritual will, the calm and
passion of her supramental largeness, her felicity of illumination:
she is Mahakali, goddess of the supreme strength, and with her
are all mights and spiritual force and severest austerity of tapas
