From the point of view of man as he is constituted now, existence is seen in the dual mode. He is trapped in the duality mode with his like/dislike dichotomy. What spirituality enables us is (1) to be able to see the perfection in this world of duality by seeing the cause and effect link, (2) to develop our capacity to overcome our like/dislike dichotomy and (3) to thereafter stabilize us in the realm of non-duality.
However, while those who have reached the realm of non-duality enjoy its bliss, the mass of humanity continue to suffer - having not yet reached the higher stage. Up till now spiritual masters sought to raise the suffering masses one at a time and succeeded only with the active participation of the suffering individual.
Probably for the first time in history, Aurobindo sought to raise the suffering masses to the higher stage even without the active participation of the masses by bring down the light of oneness. He sought to augment evolution on a mass scale, an idea, it is said, the Vedas had in its seed form. Aurobindo experimented with methods and declared success and his followers look forward to his efforts bearing fruit in the not too-distant future, as Aurobindo did the ground work even while he was in his physical form, continued after his death by the Mother. Their efforts are predicted to bear full fruit with the tying-up of loose ends going on even now by Aurobindo and the Mother at their higher level of existence.
I would think when such an age dawns, violence shall totally end, with even the tiger and deer living in harmony. Probably pranic energy would take care of sustenance.
