Sri Aurobindo’s Force and the Writing of Poetry [4]

When the current of inspiration comes to a stop, I think sometimes that perhaps you have forgotten me in your busy moments.

It does not depend on that at all. It depends on a certain state of receptivity – an opening of the channel between the inner plane where the inspiration comes and the outer through which it has to pass.
