Letters of Sri Aurobindo

Volume III - Part 4

Fragment ID: 13216

The lower consciousness rises to meet the higher consciousness – when it joins there is the sense of unity and the feeling of the one cosmic Self with Ananda and Peace or both as the result. This is called the ascent of the lower consciousness – it cannot remain all the time but it can become more and more frequent until the descent of the higher consciousness is ready.
