Letters of Sri Aurobindo

Volume 1. 1933-34

Fragment ID: 16596

1934

I was walking on the road when some local women of low class passed by near me. Immediately I felt a vehement sexual sensation in the form of pain. By the time they had gone far the sensation too had left me. Was it due to the women? If so, how could my body come in their influence without my ever taking any interest in them?

Why not? It is not their influence, but the influ-ence of the forces, which are around them.
