Sri Aurobindo's Savitri - The Auroville Radio Talks: Book V, Canto I

The destined spot and hour are close – everything happens in the cosmic play at its proper time and in its foreseen place. Sri Aurobindo describes the solitary forest glade where Savitri will meet Satyavan, the mate of her soul, for the first time in this life. The Great Mother has chosen primaeval peace of natural beauty, where earth is alone with her great lover, heaven, for the atmosphere in which she will meet her destiny. Far from the world, Savitri begins to play her part in the world’s joy and strife.
