Re: Re: Some Traditions Associated with the Five Elements of Matter

It is incredible that these were given so meaningful Sanskrit names, which match what Sri Aurobindo says about them in the Life Divine Chap X !!
This is a late discovery but relevant. These Sanskrit names are supposed to be meaningful. They were the subject of a talk given by Sri Aurobindo in Chandernagore ... see from chandernagore to pondicherry
"The whole noon used to be devoted [by Sri Aurobindo] to the teaching of yoga. I still can recollect a discussion about the divine principle, enmeshed in a quadruple sheath. He discoursed ecstatically2 about Vasudeva, Sankarshan, Prodyumna and Aniruddha, and I listened with rapt attention."
the footnote is amusing
When this passage was read out to Sri Aurobindo in 1940, he commented: “I didn't know I had any emotion during explanation.” (Nirodbaran, Talks with Sri Aurobindo, vol. III (Pondicherry: Sri Aurobindo Ashram Trust, 1973), p. 68.
