You said that it is the ordinary oscillations of the consciousness between two forces – the higher power and the physical inertia. On what do these oscillations depend? At times when the peace and silence are in front, it is not because I have aspired for them. When the inertia is prominent, it is not that I have wanted it.
Of course not. It depends on the play of forces in the consciousness itself.
