When mind is still, then truth gets her chance to be heard in the purity of the silence.
Sri AurobindoA quiet mind does not mean that there will be no thoughts or mental movements at all, but that these will be on the surface, and you will feel your true being within, separate from them, observing but not carried away
Sri AurobindoThat within us which seeks to know and to progress is not the mind but something behind it which makes use of it.
Sri AurobindoIn the normal play of our mind there are all sorts of perversions; hence the need to stop all these things and inculcate right thinking, right willing - in other words, Truth must be established.
Sri AurobindoThe great are strongest when they stand alone, A God-given might of being is their force.
Sri AurobindoOn the top of the head is a Chakra - Sahasradala or the thousand-petalled lotus. There is a Chakra in the middle of the forehead between the eyebrows and one in the heart-centre. The region between the navel and head constitutes the mental field. From navel downward extending till the terminus of the spinal chord, mลซlฤdhฤra, is the seat of the vital.
