Correspondence with Sri Aurobindo

The Complete Set

D was saying, “What is food-desire after all, for me? I can give it up at once.” How far is this view correct? Or is the vital having its play out under this pretext?

It is a self-deception of the vital, “I have no attachment, so I can go on indulging myself!” But in practice the attachment is there, however lofty the attitude.
