Sri Aurobindo

Letters of Sri Aurobindo

Volume III - Part 4

Fragment ID: 13257

Whatever comes from above the head, whether it is Presence, Peace, Ananda, or anything else, normally descends into the head first, then after occupying all the mental centres it comes down into the heart and from there goes down into the vital centres and occupies the whole body. If there is a resistance, it is felt as a weight and a pressure – when the way is open, the pressure disappears and there is only the thing itself. It enters each centre as soon as the way to it is open.
