It is good health, a solid body, well poised when one
does not have the nerves of a little girl that are shaken by the least thing;
when one sleeps well, eats well... When one is quiet calm, well balanced,
very quiet, one has a solid basis and can receive a large number of forces.
If anyone among you has received spiritual forces,
forces of the Divine, Ananda, for example, he knows from experience that unless
he is in good health he cannot contain them, keep them. He begins to weep and
cry, gets restless to expend what he has received. He must laugh and talk and
gesticulate, otherwise he cannot keep them, he feels stifled. And so by
laughing, weeping, moving about he throws out what he has received.
To be well balanced, to be able to absorb what one
receives, one must be very quiet, very calm. One must have a solid basis, good
health. One must have a very solid basis. That is very important.
