The Golden Day (Day of the Supramental Manifestation) (29 February 1956)

The Mother has the concrete experience of the descent of the Supramental Consciousness on Earth. She said, ‘This evening the Divine Presence, concrete and material, was there present amongst you. I had a form of living gold, bigger than the universe, and I was facing a huge and massive golden door which separated the world from the Divine. As I looked at the door, I knew and willed, in a single movement of consciousness, that “the time has come,” and lifting with both hand a mighty golden hammer I struck one blow, one single blow on the door and the door was shattered to pieces. Then the supramental Light and Force and Consciousness rushed down upon earth in an uninterrupted flow.’ [The Mother. Collected Works of the Mother.- Volume 13. - Words of the Mother] Later she explained in a conversation with K.D. Sethna: ‘The whole thing is not so much a vision or an experience as something done by me...’

Siddhi day (day of Victory) (24 Movember 1926)

“24th [November 1926] was the descent of Krishna into the physical. Krishna is not the supramental Light. The descent of Krishna would mean the descent of the Overmind Godhead preparing, though not itself actually bringing, the descent of Supermind and Ananda.” [A letter of Sri Aurobindo, dated 29-10-1935, to Prithwi Singh Nahar // SABCL.- Volume 22.- Letters on Yoga.- Part 1]
