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 AurobindoSuffering makes us capable of the full force of the Master of Delight; it makes us capable also to bear the utter play of the Master of Power. Pain is the key that opens the gates of strength; it is the high-road that leads to the city of beatitude.
Sri AurobindoAn active mind needs an outlet. If it stops by itself from within, well and good; otherwise one should not try to stop this by force.
Sri AurobindoWith which part do you watch? Surely with the mind? That won't do. It is the silent Purusha within who must watch all.
