Man Only One to Evolve

World created to evolve itself

From the beginning till today

From one celled to multi-celled

From fish to amphibians

From amphibians to reptiles

From reptiles to birds

From birds to mammals

But Man wins the Evolutionary Race

Currently rules over the Planet Earth

Why so many crises, man?

Is the winner happy and delighted all time?

Have his capacities increased truly?

At mental, physical, and emotional level?

Depression, Death, Disease and Decay stun humans

Can Man surpass himself and overcome himself?

Sri Aurobindo says Man is not final

Just an intermediate being

For man Mind and Emotions are Supreme

In future their role and control will be over

A Superman will evolve from enlightened humans

Whose Mind can reach the Supreme Knowledge

Through identification and intuition

Whose emotions will be controlled

And transformed only for the Divine cause

Only Strong Beings enlightened within will surpass man

Man will live for the soul, of the soul and by the soul

Not to live with mind’s ego and heart’s desire

Glimpses of Supermind action already visible

Too much morality, bigotry, do not enthuse men

Old methods based on Rules, Rituals, Cults lose its sheen

Disgusted with outward with pomp and ceremony

People start living inwardly, seeking to find the Truth and Freedom

People craving for universal love and unity, like never before

No longer tolerate treachery, hypocrisy, pretension, and laziness

No agents of falsehood, corruption will thrive anymore

Only man has the power in this whole universe

To introspect, analyse and transform himself to the highest state.

Can discover himself as the son of Infinite Supreme.

Disease and Decay will no longer trouble man but their associate

Death is not the way to salvation, life is.

Sun-eyed children of God will walk on His celestial sunlit path.

Love, wideness, oneness and gratitude will spread everywhere.

Time has come for the mankind

To choose between two: Truth or Abyss?

Illusion of career-success-money-power-sex or

Enlightenment of the Supreme Knowledge and Light

Make Faith, Sincerity, Equanimity, Courage, Generosity as the instruments

To become the ultimate and delightful slave of the Supreme Divine.
