The Mother gave the title "Divine Consciousness Emerging from the Inconscient" to the above painting.
During the early 1920s Sri Aurobindo's brother, Barin, was doing some oil painting under The Mother's guidance. As is the common practice of artists, a small board was kept for depositing the surplus paint left on the palette after each session. A random mixture of colours covered most of the surface on this board. One day when Barin had finished his work The Mother asked for the palette and, with the remaining paint, gave a few deft brush strokes to the centre of the board covered with old-palette scrapings. Thus the painting was completed.
