Q: Is it true that it is mostly the
Mahasaraswati aspect of the Mother that works in our sadhana here?
A. Sri Aurobindo: At present since the sadhana came down to the physical
consciousness - or rather it is a combination of Maheshwari - Mahasaraswati
forces.
Q: I am always
in touch with the Mother during work. Not only do I remember her but the
contact with her remains during work. Her Force constantly flows into the Adhar
and the work is done automatically, but swiftly, perfectly, unhesitatingly -
without personal anxieties and responsibilities; instead, there is confidence,
sureness, strength, calmness. I feel that if I can do work in this attitude, it
will be perfect, flawless, the work of the Mother’s child, not of an egoistic
man. Kindly let me know if I am correct.
A: Sri
Aurobindo: Yes, it is very good progress and
the first step towards the right use of the Power of action.
Q: Today while
engaged in work I felt a peaceful energy and something like ice touching my
head. Then the knowledge came to me with a strong feeling and vision that
though the Mother is not physically near us, she is always present near and
around us and is constantly removing all kinds of difficulties with the touch
of her affectionate hand. Was this a vision or realisation? Through what
consciousness did it come to me?
A: Sri
Aurobindo:
It is a realisation attended with vision and feeling. It is psychic and
the mental together that produced it.
(Sri Aurobindo on Himself and The Mother, Sri
Aurobindo, Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry, 1953)
