Sit in meditation ! But do not think ! Look only at your mind ! You will see thoughts coming into it ! Before they can enter, throw these away from your mind till your mind is capable of entire silence.

Sri Aurobindo

This world is a vast unbroken totality, a deep solidarity joins its contrary powers.
SRI AUROBINDO

Power Solidarity World
Be conscious first of thyself within, then think and act. All living thought is a world in preparation; all real act is a thought manifested. The material world exists because an idea began to play in divine self–consciousness.
SRI AUROBINDO

Act Consciousness Idea Material Play Preparation Thinking
The yogin becomes aware in part of the action of the supramental power organizing the lower vehicle (ādhāra). A part of it remains behind the veil and prepares itself.

Not only a truer knowledge, but a greater power comes to one in the quietude and silence of a mind that, instead of bubbling on the surface, can go to its own depths and listen.
SRI AUROBINDO

There is nothing mind can do that cannot be better done in the mind’s immobility and thought-free stillness. When mind is still, then truth gets her chance to be heard in the purity of the silence.
SRI AUROBINDO

To hope for a true change of human life without a change of human nature is an irrational and unspiritual proposition.

There is nothing small in God’s eyes; let there be nothing small in thine
