Prithwi Singh — Sri Aurobindo
...I frankly confess to you Mother that I feel almost like weeping for very shame as I report day after day the sad fact of the body's unopenness to your Force, but to disobey You is far worse and inexcusable and with as much equanimity as I can command I go on writing until your order is otherwise.
There is no need to be distressed by having to write. These things are obstinate and even if the body is open and willing they linger in the subconscient over which the mind's control is very little. That is why they can stick for a considerable time.
Even very small children are allowed at “Darshan” now, while it was not so before. From this would it be wrong to infer that the earth-consciousness can bear higher Force more stably and that some part of the Supramental has touched and made its opening in it? Many used to tremble before at the touch of the Master but now generally it is not so and does not that point to the same conclusion?
There have always been some young children coming from time to time in spite of the general rule.
At this “darshan” I felt such an overflowing ecstatic joy that I cannot express it.
With deep devotion
Prithwisingh
