Letters of Sri Aurobindo
09. Sadhana in the Ashram and Outside
What you say is right. This attitude that the Divine has need of 
the sadhak and not the sadhak of the Divine, is utterly wrong and absurd. When people are accepted here, they are given a chance of a great Divine Grace, of being instruments of a great work. To suppose that the Divine cannot do his work without the help of this or that person is surely most arrogant and illogical. They ought to remember the Gita’s ṛte’pi tvām “even without thee” the work can be done and its nimittamātram bhava.
