5. On Three Works of the Mother

Fragment ID: 20214

The passage in the Prières that came up tonight is this: “et le raisonnement est une faculté humaine, c’est-à-dire individuelle” [p. 201]. I am not able to see what it points to.

When the divine consciousness is veiled, one has to fall back on the reason, but the human reason is an individual action quite unreliable. That is the sense.
