The yoga we practice is not for ourselves alone, but for the Divine; its aim is to work out the will of the Divine in the world, to effect a spiritual transformation and to bring down a divine nature and a divine life into the mental, vital and physical nature and life of humanity. Its object is not personal Mukti, although Mukti is a necessary condition of the yoga, but the liberation and transformation of the human being. It is not personal Ananda, but the bringing down of the divine Ananda - Christ's kingdom of heaven, our Satyayuga - upon the earth.
Sri AurobindoTrust the divine power, and she will free the godlike elements in you and shape all into an expression of divine nature.
Sri AurobindoWhile doing sadhana you must quieten your mind and keep awake the Purusha consciousness behind all your activities.
Sri AurobindoRemember that you are at an exceptional hour in a unique epoch, that you have this great happiness, this invaluable privilege, of being present at the birth of a new world.
Sri AurobindoThe navel region is the centre of the vital. It is from here that the movements of the vital rise upward. Above the navel and behind the chest is the centre of the play of emotions and below this takes place the play of the physical. Mulฤdhฤra is the base of the physical. In between the Mulฤdhฤra and the navel, there is another centre of the vital.
Sri Aurobindo
