The inside must be made entirely calm and quiet and there should reign an upward aspiration - a state of awaiting.
Sri AurobindoThreefold are those supreme births of this divine force that is in the world, they are true, they are desirable; he moves there wide-overt within the Infinite and shines pure, luminous and fulfilling.... Of that which is in mortal in mortals, and possessed of the truth, is a God and established inwardly as an energy working out in our divine powers.... Become high uplifted, O Strength, pierce all veils, manifest in as the things of the Godhead.
Sri AurobindoThe mind has these four levels: physical, vital, buddhi, higher mind. The Supermind is far above these.
