the coming down into the physical consciousness. In saying all that I am not giving any blame, or saying you made a mistake or acted against the Mother’s Will. These notions of mistake or not doing the Will are your own, not mine.Sri Aurobindo
Letters of Sri Aurobindo
12. Difficulties of the Path (2)
Fragment ID: 3929
I have not said that you made a mistake. I have simply stated what happened and the causes. If you had been able to remain above and let the Force come down and act while you were detached from the outer nature, it would have been all right. You were able to go up because the Peace descended. You were not able to remain above because the Peace could not occupy sufficiently the physical and the Force did not descend sufficiently. Meanwhile the inertia rose, you got troubled more and more because of the vital suggestions in the outer nature and the rush of inertia, so you were unable to keep detached and let the Force descend more and more or call it down more and more. Hence the coming down into the physical consciousness. In saying all that I am not giving any blame, or saying you made a mistake or acted against the Mother’s Will. These notions of mistake or not doing the Will are your own, not mine.
