Sri Aurobindo — Unknown addressee

August 3, 1934

The psychic being (which is the soul) does not make centres for itself in the Adhar. The centres are there. The psychic being can take control of the centres that are already there – the heart and the navel centre and the two below the navel. Also the mind and vital are not abolished – they are brought under the psychic influence and psychicised, or they are occupied by the higher consciousness from above and transformed into its instruments.
