“Life, not a remotely silent or highly ecstatic uplifted Beyond, life alone is the field of our Yoga “, wrote the Master. He was highlighting the fact that the solution to problems is not escapism, but meeting them squarely and overcoming them.
Our aim must be Self Actualisation and we should not be bothered about the hindrances on the path.
Says he “We have to understand that the Divine Will is leading us, through every circumstance, towards the Final Realisation”. We may be confronted by innumerable adversities, but we have to overcome them to arrive at the Goal. “This is the work of the Supramental Shakti, converting our obscure mentality into Her supramentality”.
A luminous heart of the Unknown is She
A power of Silence in the depths of God
She is the Force, the inevitable Word,
The magnet of our difficult Ascent
The Light that leans from the unrealised vasts
The Joy that beckons us from the Impossible.”
This Supramental Shakti is at work, converting the mundane into the supramundane.
