We conclude with the following verses of Sri Aurobindo -His vision of the future. From Savitri, book XI, Canto 1.
...The incarnate dual Power shall open God's door,
Eternal supermind touch earthly Time.
The superman shall wake in mortal man
...
Then shall the earth be touched by the Supreme,
...
The being ready for immortality,
...
The Immanent shall be the witness God
Watching on his many-petalled lotus-throne
His actionless being and his silent might
Ruling earth-nature by eternity's law,
A thinker waking the Inconscient s world,
An immobile centre of many infinitudes
In his thousand-pillared temple by Time s sea....
Page-186
The supermind shall be his nature's fount,
...
A mightier race shall inhabit the mortal s world.
On Nature s luminous tops, on the Spirit's ground,
The superman shall reign as king of life,
Make earth almost the mate and peer of heaven,
...
Life s tops shall flame with the Immortal s thoughts,
Light shall invade the darkness of its base.
...
Beauty and joy remould her way to live:
Even the body shall remember God,
...
The supermind shall claim the world for Light
...
A greater truth than earth's shall roof-in earth
And shed its sunlight on the roads of mind;
...
In earthly hearts kindle the Immortal's fire.
...
The mind shall be God-vision's tabernacle,
The body intuition's instrument,
And life a channel for God's visible power.
All earth shall be the Spirit's manifest home,
...
An unerring Hand shall shape event and act.
...
This world shall be God's visible garden-house,
The earth shall be a field and camp of God,
...
This universe shall unseal its occult sense,
Creation's process change its antique front,
...
And Nature shall reverse her action's rule,
...
All things shall manifest the covert God,
All shall reveal the Spirit's light and might...

Even should a hostile force cling to its reign
And claim its right's perpetual sovereignty
And man refuse his high spiritual fate,
Yet shall the secret Truth in things prevail.
For in the march of all-fulfilling Time
The hour must come of the Transcendent's will:
...
Even there shall come as a high crown of all
The end of Death, the death of Ignorance.
...
This too shall be; for a new life shall come,
...
And Truth shall be a sun on Nature's head
And Truth shall be the guide of Nature's steps
And Truth shall gaze out of her nether deeps.
When superman is born as Nature's king
His presence shall transfigure Matter s world:
...
Man too shall turn towards the Spirit's call.
...
The higher kind shall lean to lift up man.
Man shall desire to climb to his own heights.
...
Even the dumb earth become a sentient force.
...
The Spirit shall look out through Matter s gaze
And Matter shall reveal the Spirit's face.
Then man and superman shall be at one
And all the earth become a single life.
Even the multitude shall hear the Voice
...
This earth shall stir with impulses sublime,
Humanity awake to deepest self, ...
Even the many shall some answer make
And bear the splendour of the Divine's rush
...
A heavenlier passion shall upheave men's lives,
Their mind shall share in the ineffable gleam,
Their heart shall feel the ecstasy and the fire.
Page-188
Earth s bodies shall be conscious of a soul;
...
Mere men into spiritual beings grow
...
Intuitive beams shall touch the nature's peaks,
...
The Truth shall be the leader of their lives,
Truth shall dictate their thought and speech and act,
They shall feel themselves lifted nearer to the sky,
As if a little lower than the gods.
...
The frontiers of the Ignorance shall recede,
More and more souls shall enter into light,
Minds lit, inspired, the occult summoner hear
And lives blaze with a sudden inner flame
And hearts grow enamoured of divine delight
And human wills tune to the divine will,
These separate selves the Spirit s oneness feel,
These senses of heavenly sense grow capable,
The flesh and nerves of a strange ethereal joy
And mortal bodies of immortality.
A divine force shall flow through tissue and cell
And take the charge of breath and speech and act
And all the thoughts shall be a glow of suns
And every feeling a celestial thrill.
Often a lustrous inner dawn shall come
Lighting the chambers of the slumbering mind;
A sudden bliss shall run through every limb
And Nature with a mightier Presence fill.
Thus shall the earth open to divinity
And common natures feel the wide uplift,
Illumine common acts with the Spirit's ray
And meet the deity in common things.
Nature shall live to manifest secret God,
The Spirit shall take up the human play,
This earthly life become the life divine. "
Page-189
Two spirits saved out of a suffering world;
My soul and his indissolubly linked
In the one task for which our lives were born,
To raise the world to God in deathless Light,
To bring God down to the world on earth we came,
To change the earthly life to life divine.
