Letters of Sri Aurobindo

Volume IV - Part 1

Fragment ID: 13681

In talking one has the tendency to come down into a lower and more external consciousness because talking comes from the external mind. But it is impossible to avoid it altogether. What you must do is to learn to get back at once to the inner consciousness – this so long as you are not able to speak always from the inner being or at least with the inner being supporting the action.
