The remedy is to draw back and let the inspiration flow, keeping the attitude of the instrument and witness not involved in the work.Sri Aurobindo

Passivity of Mind [2]
I seem to force and hurry myself rather than surrender to the Force above. The result is annoyance, mental labour, headaches and nervous irritation. Also, the desire to write this and that, this way or that way.
The remedy is to draw back and let the inspiration flow, keeping the attitude of the instrument and witness not involved in the work.
