520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Kalpana Bidwaikar's "Transformation of Consciousness in Savitri" delves into Sri Aurobindo's epic poem Savitri as a comprehensive guide to the evolution and transformation of consciousness. The book systematically explores Sri Aurobindo's philosophy of involution and evolution of consciousness, relating it directly to the themes and narrative of Savitri. It examines the various levels of human consciousness depicted in the epic and meticulously explains the "triple transformation" – psychic, spiritual, and supramental – exemplified through the yogas of Savitri and Aswapati.<br/><br/>Bidwaikar aims to present Savitri as a practical system of Integral Yoga, demonstrating how the poem serves as a "Mantra for the transformation of the world." She highlights how the experiences of Aswapati (representing humanity's aspiration) and Savitri (representing the Divine Grace and its descent) chart a path for humanity to achieve a divinized life on Earth through the radical transformation of consciousness, ultimately leading to the emergence of a new kind of being and a solution to the current evolutionary crisis. The book is lauded for its blend of philosophical exposition and poetic symbolism, effectively capturing the underlying vision of Savitri.
