What is yet to discovered is how much Sri Aurobindo himself was influenced by Christianity

transfiguration by Cyprian Consiglio at 12:08 PM. Just in the first three chapters [Sri Aurobindo, The Synthesis of Yoga] I am again startled to find how much resonance there is with Bede Griffiths thought on spirit, soul and body, which Aurbindo calls bodily or material, mental and spiritual. But this bleow especially struck me yesterday, reading it on the feast of the transfiguration. (What is yet to discovered is how much Aurobindo himself, on the other hand, was influenced by Christianity.) ... talks, notes, and travelogues - http://cyprianconsiglio.blogspot.com/

Time to Be a Man by Gagdad Bob. A rapid google search yields the following (also here), which may or may not be of help. Feel free to translight it into your own theological language; it's the principle that counts, not the particular application (sorry about the length; it just kept making sense, so I just kept going with it): "In Sri Aurobindo's formulation, the first infinite divine plane is Pure Existence, which he calls Sat (Being, Reality). Sat is not merely pure Existence, or Chit empty Consciousness. Rather, as Aurobindo explains, it is a Conscious-Existence.... Existence is Consciousness and there can be no distinction between them...." ... One Cosmos - http://onecosmos.blogspot.com/
