Sri Aurobindo — Unknown addressee

March 3, 1933

By the gross physical is meant the earthly and bodily physical – as experienced by the outward sense-mind and senses. But that is not the whole of Matter. There is a subtle physical also with a subtler consciousness in it which can (for instance) go to a distance from the body and yet feel and be aware of things in a not merely mental or vital way. As for mind and vital, they are everywhere – there is an obscure mind and life even in the cells of the body, the stones or in molecules and atoms.
