Letters of Sri Aurobindo

Volume IV - Part 1

Fragment ID: 13443

The pure inspiration and conception is something quite different [from ordinary thought] – it comes from deep within or from high above. This is the lower vital mind at work making formations. When the calmness is there all sorts of things may rise on the surface – they have not to be accepted, but simply looked at. In time the calmness will be so developed as to quell the vital and outer mind also and in that complete quietude the true perceptions will come.
