Remarks on the Current State of the Sadhana, 1931 – 1947

1937 [2]

What have you kept in store for us, Sir? Will the sadhaks tumble in this way one by one as your Supramental comes nearer and nearer? Then with whom will you enjoy your Supramental? Night and day you are soaring and soaring.

Romantic one! I am not soaring and soaring — I am digging and digging. “Go to the ant, thou sluggard” sort of affair.
