Sri Aurobindo — Unknown addressee

May 27, 1933

Vayu and Indra are cosmic godheads presiding over the action of cosmic principles – they are not the manomaya puruṣa or prāṇamaya puruṣa in each man.

The Purusha is an essential being supporting the play of Prakriti; the godhead (Indra, Vayu, etc.) is a dynamic being manifested in Prakriti for the works of the plane to which he belongs.
