The Essays on the Gita by Sri Aurobindo |
 |
|
"Man has a soul within, the Purusha in the heart, who leads the life and the body. The fundamental experience of yoga is a silent and immobile consciousness infinitely spread out, not dependent on the personality but impersonal and universal, not seeing and interpreting contacts but motionlessly self-aware, not dependent on the reactions, but persistent in itself even when no reactions take place. The subjective outer personality itself is only a formation of consciousness which is a power inherent, not in the activity of the temporary manifested personality, but in the being, the Self or Purusha." - Sri Aurobindo |

The Synthesis of Yoga: How to enter the state of trance |
 |
|
"The aim of the Yoga of Knowledge is the ascent or the withdrawal into a higher or a divine consciousness not now normal to us, to Yogic trance, to Samadhi. There are states of being which can only be gained in trance. In the Integral Yoga Yogic trance cannot be an aim, but only a means to enlarge and raise the whole seeing, living and active consciousness." - Sri Aurobindo |

"Love is one of the great universal forces. It manifests wherever it finds a possibility for manifestation. What you call love and think of as a personal or individual thing is only your capacity to receive and manifest this universal force. Men think that they have suddenly fallen in love; they see their love come and grow and then it fades. But their sense in this of a personal experience all their own was an illusion. It was a wave from the everlasting sea of universal and eternal love;" - The Mother |

Realisation of Sri Aurobindo’s Dreams |
 |
|
"Indeed, on this day I can watch almost all the world-movements which I hoped to see fulfilled in my lifetime, though then they looked like impracticable dreams, arriving at fruition or on their way to achievement. In all these movements free India may well play a large part and take a leading position." – Sri Aurobindo |

Once I went to the world of music, and what I heard was so marvellous, so unbelievably beautiful, that even after waking I remained stunned for hours. Unbelievable. In the musical zone you find the origin of the sounds that have inspired various composers. These are the great musical waves without a sound… At the top of the musical zone it starts to become waves, vibratory waves… That’s the topmost…Constantly I hear like great musical waves. I have but to go within a bit and it’s there, I can hear it… And each time I hear these waves my hands long to play. - The Mother |

Concentration on the Mother's Photograph |
 |
|
Q: Sweet Mother, when we concentrate on one of your photos – there are many photos, each one with a different expression – does it make a difference for us, the one on which we concentrate?
The Mother: If you do it purposely, yes, of course. If you choose this photo for a particular reason, surely. It has an effect. It is as though you were choosing to concentrate on one aspect of the Mother rather than another; for example, if you choose to concentrate on Mahakali or Mahalakshmi or on Maheshwari, the results will be different. That part of you which answers to these qualities will awaken and become receptive. |

The Mother: I am with you because I am you or you are I. I am with you, that signifies a world of things because I am with you on all levels, in all planes, from the supreme consciousness down to the most physical. |

The Mother: Sri Aurobindo came to tell us how to find
Thee and how to serve Thee.
Grant that in this year of his centenary we
may truly understand what he has taught us
and in all sincerity put it into practice.
