>> Sri Aurobindo’s distinction between the asuras to be transformed, versus the very rare type of asuras that, being pure evil, cannot be transformed and as such have to be destroyed. Hitler was one. ...>> No, Hitler was not an Asura, but he was a possessed being, possessed by him whom the Mother called the Lord of the Nations. He is one who refuses to get transformed or dissolved. As far as Hitler is concerned, Sri Aurobindo himself has said that his soul is no bigger that the soul of a London cabman of his time in London. Of course, he was a perfect instrument doing the work of his Master, the Lord of the Nations, and had no faculty of discrimination if somebody would impersonate him, as did the Mother on a crucial occasion. ~RYD
