Letters of Sri Aurobindo

Volume III - Part 4

Fragment ID: 13185

In the physical consciousness the descent is the most important. Something of the subtle physical can always go up – but the external physical consciousness can only do it when the force from above comes down and fills it. There is then a sort of unification made when the higher consciousness and the physical are one undivided consciousness and there is an ascent of forces from below and descent from above, simultaneous and mutually interpenetrating.
