Savitri's Tryst with Death

Author(s) Surekha Verma
Country India
Abstract This paper proposes to discuss the mythical tale of Savitri and Sat ya van on a magnanimous scale via symbols by the poet Sri Aurobindo in his magnum opus ' Savitri'.Quintessentially it is a tale of a wife so devoted that she brings back her husband from the clutches of death. However the poet transforms this folk lore into a saga of spiritual warfare where the light of divinity transcends the phenomena of death which has the element of time and karma under its fold. Covertly Sri Aurobindo's Savitri transcends the cycle of birth, life and death during the tryst with the latter.
Keywords Karma, time, death, spirituality, symbolic
