Sri Aurobindo — Patel, Govindbhai

I would like to know how to establish balance between the trance, the waking state and sleep, which can make possible the establishment of the timeless infinite consciousness.

There can be no balance (in sleep) in the present condition. The balance can only come as the sleep becomes conscious and free from tamas....

I am concerned with preparing the nature for the Supramental possibility — however long that may take and I have no time or energy to waste on side issues. That preparation is the only thing I can recommend to you; all the “sides” necessary will come with it.
