1. Spirituality

The Ashram and its Yoga

II. The true Way of Yoga

How is it that in spite of tremendous pouring of Force by the Mother and you, X could not change many of his ideas about the Yoga in our Ashram?

His mind changed somewhat, but his vital clung to the feeling of frustration by the Yoga and therefore abused the Yoga. It wanted either satisfaction of its play or brilliant experiences to replace them or both together. Not getting its way, it damned the Yoga as grim horrible, etc. All the time it refused to go on steadily with the thing that would be effective.
