That's beautiful. How will you connect the sense of the root pra with prakriti? May I suggest you to insert your article on the subject here? I am referring to the Savitri Bhavan's Invocation article that was published sometime ago. It could be posted as an independent piece with a link here, or kept as a continuation in the present file for immediate reference. RYD

And then we have in one of the quotations from Savitri an extremely suggestive phrase: “Aswapati listened through the ray to other sounds than meet the sense-formed ear.” This pertains to the situation when Savitri, his daughter, has grown into full maidenhood and no suitor has come to claim her hand in marriage. Aswapati the Yogi receives the message and the story of Savitri now picks up another rapid speed. The significant phrase here is “the sense-formed ear”. The suggestion is, it is the sound that prepares the sense of hearing, which then gives rise to the physical sense-organ, the ear. So for sight too, the physical eye coming as a result of sight, and of course the same for other organs of perception. But we might look into these aspects later. In the meanwhile, let us collect some more quotations, presently from Savitri.
