Interview avec SATPREM par David Montemurri India 1982

As I started - stupidly - the recording of the interview Satprem by the end... I invite you to look (listen) the first part of the elements that have been registered in french.

An exciting and moving interview which, moreover, is quite topical!

Satprem, whose real name Bernard Enginger, born in Paris on October 30, 1923 and died on April 9, 2007, is a french writer.

Student Jesuit college in Amiens, it is returned. He continued his secondary education in a school Parisian bachelor until then integrates a preparatory class at school coloniale.Il then enters a network of resistance of the Bordeaux region. He was arrested by the Gestapo at the age of twenty years and spent a year and a half in the concentration camp at Mathausen. He was then found in Upper Egypt, then India, the Government of Pondicherry. He met Aurobindo Ghose and Mirra Alfassa (Mother).

Their message, "the man is a transition" gives meaning to his life. He resigned settlements and hand in Guyana where he spends a full year in virgin forest, and then in Brazil and Africa.

In 1953, at the age of thirty years, he returned permanently to India to one that sought the secret passage to the next case, Mirra Alfassa "the Mother, whom he became the confidant and the witness for nearly twenty years. It would present one that will remain his companion until his death, Sujata Nahar in 1954.

Comme j'ai commencé - bêtement - l'enregistrement de l'interview de Satprem par la fin ... Je vous invite à regarder (écouter) la première partie des éléments qui ont été enregistrés en français.
Je suis désolée pour les non francophones : Google ne fait pas de traductions audio ... ;)

Une passionnante et émouvante interview qui, de plus, est tout à fait d'actualité !

Satprem, de son vrai nom Bernard Enginger, né à Paris le 30 octobre 1923 et mort le 9 avril 2007, est un écrivain français.

Elève au collège de jésuites d'Amiens, il en est renvoyé. Il poursuit ses études secondaires dans un lycée parisien jusqu'au baccalauréat puis intègre une classe préparatoire à l'école coloniale.Il entre alors dans un réseau de résistance de la région de Bordeaux. Il est arrêté par la Gestapo à l'âge de vingt ans et passe un an et demi dans le camp de concentration de Mathausen. Il se retrouve ensuite en Haute-Égypte, puis en Inde, au gouvernement de Pondichéry. Il rencontre Aurobindo Ghose et Mirra Alfassa (Mère).

Leur message « l'homme est un être de transition » donne un sens à sa vie. Il démissionne des colonies et part en Guyane où il passe une année en pleine forêt vierge, puis au Brésil et en Afrique.

En 1953, à l'âge de trente ans, il revient définitivement en Inde auprès de celle qui cherchait le secret du passage à la « prochaine espèce », Mirra Alfassa, dont il deviendra le confident et le témoin pendant près de vingt ans. Elle lui présente celle qui restera sa compagne jusqu'à sa mort, Sujata Nahar en 1954.

Le 3 mars 1957, Mirra Alfassa (Mère) lui donna son nom, Satprem ("celui qui aime vraiment")

Satprem est mort le 9 avril 2007.
Sa compagne Sujata Nahar est morte après lui le 4 mai 2007.

  • Merci à tous :)

    Il se dégage de Satprem une paix, une présence, un "silence", un amour qui ont le pouvoir de nous connecter à ces états ... du moins momentanément ...

    Merci Satprem :)

  • This is the question that one arrives at: When everything crumbles around you, what remains?

  • Anglophones: I did this translation myself with my knowledge of French and a little help. I tried my best to translate complex and metaphorical ideas. Hope it makes sense to you. Cheers.

  • et si il ne s'agissait pas de se mettre en conformité avec la conscience? Agir en accord majeur... au lieu de dire qu'il faut changer de conscience...JjS

  • And this is key: Its not about what we think, not about what we feel, not about what we like, not about our ideas, not about religiosity. Its nothing of the sort. Its something rather which is poignant, as if everyone gathered in anxiety for an intense prayer. Or its like love, its warm, powerful.

  • Everything became insignificant, non-existent, even myself. All ideas, all nobility became insignificant, there was nothing, you understand? There was no politics, no religion, nothing to cling onto. So what do we have when there is nothing? What remains? There is a centre of force. Perhaps there is something that remains.

  • Nevertheless, I can only talk from my own experience, isnt it? A man cannot come into being or live until he can achieve a true and total nothingness of what he is, of what he thinks, of what he believes, of what he likes. When one arrives at this complete nothingness it is that something exists or dies, is it not? I have realized this during long sessions of concentration/meditation, there is a nothingness.

  • It is necessary that we reach a stage where the consciousness turns in a different direction, is it not? This is the case. Its an evolutionary crisis. Were in a moment in time where we must learn to breathe, where something has to give, or else, suffocate. Thats whats happening.

  • Were not in a moral crisis or political crisis, nor financial, nor religious. Theres none of that. Were in an evolutionary crisis, where humanity is in the process of dying so that it can be revived as something else. So, everything is disintegrating everywhere. Everything is horrible everywhere, even in the splendid American cities where its comfortable- its the same barbarism everywhere.

  • Satprem: We are entering a state of not only hell of a psychological nature as Rimbault describes, but a physical hell now. At the moment, one is in the process of destroying the earth, is it not? There is barbarism everywhere in one form or another. It becomes very suffocating, because it seems necessary for mankind to face a terrifying physical reality in order to change its consciousness. Thats what the situation is.
