Sri Aurobindo — Doshi, Nagin

1933-34

1933-34

Once when I asked you if an old desire was again rising up in me owing to a previous insufficient rejection, you said that it had remained in the physical vital. What does the “physical vital” mean?

I think I said it was left in the subconscient part of the physical vital. As there is a physical mind, so there is a physical vital – a vital turned entirely upon physical things, full of desires and greeds and seekings for pleasure on the physical plane.
