Sri Aurobindo
Letters of Sri Aurobindo
2. The Mother, Sri Aurobindo and the Integral Yoga
The human consciousness is made of many materials and all cannot bear quickly a constant spiritual endeavour – they have to be trained, enlightened, changed in their habits. That is why the Mother and I always give time for the soul to grow upon the other parts and we do not mind if it takes time, provided there is a central sincerity and will – as certainly there is in you. Do not be impatient or easily discouraged because things do not go fast. Aspire, try to keep yourself in the sunshine of confidence and let the seed grow.
