Letters of Sri Aurobindo

SABCL 26

Fragment ID: 8102

Q: In what way have we all “worked through ages for the victory of the Divine”? How much has been achieved till now?

A: By the victory is meant the final emergence of the embodied consciousness on earth from the bondage of the Ignorance. That had to be prepared through the ages by a spiritual evolution. Naturally, the work up till now has been a preparation of which the long spiritual effort and experience of the past has been the outcome. It has reached a point at which the decisive effort has become possible.
