Description
Savitri is the Consciousness of the Beyond with the incarnate soul's urge and claim for the realization of the spirit's verities in the life here. The divine Savitri takes human birth as Aswapati's daughter, comes as the Word of Realisation. In it is the twofold Yoga of the material opening to the spiritual as much as the spiritual entering into the material. Aswapati keeps the ground ready for the willed work to be undertaken, and to invoke the transcendental Power to take the mortal birth; it is she who will come as Savitri to carry out the divine Action. Her task is to win victory over Death. This is what we have in The Radiant Daughter which also proves to be a wonderful Record of Savitri's Yoga, the Yoga that had been done and the Yoga she would be doing. But Savitri is not just that; Savitri is another force of revelation carrying in it another dynamism. In it the past really is another country which has to be left behind: Savitri is a yogic force in action. That is what makes it a true biography presenting her life to the extent possible for us to see and possibly to live in.
