Transform reason into ordered intuition let all thyself be light. This is thy goal.
Sri Aurobindo

The expression from above is for us only a way of speaking. Many receive from above the command for action - we call it intuition.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Ourselves within us lethal forces nurse We make of our own enemies our guests.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
The Purusha should assume at all times the attitude of a giver of sanction while rejecting the lower movements and accepting only truth-movements.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
By your stumbling, the world is perfected.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Until you get a guidance from above you cannot be sure but to get this guidance it requires time and sadhana.
Sri Aurobindo

Trust the divine power, and she will free the godlike elements in you and shape all into an expression of divine nature.
Sri Aurobindo

Love is the keynote, Joy is the music, Knowledge is the performer, the Infinite All is the composer and audience.
