| Never
forget that you are not alone. The Divine is with you helping
and guiding you. He is the companion who never fails, the
friend whose love comforts and strengthens. The more you
feel lonely, the more you are ready to perceive His luminous
Presence. Have faith and He will do everything for you.

It
is not a hope but a
certitude that the
complete transformation
of the nature will
take place.

Sri Aurobindo
The
Divine does not see things as men do and has no need to punish or reward.
Each and every action carries in itself its fruit and its consequences.
According
to the nature of the action, it brings you near to the Divine or takes
you away from Him, and that is the supreme consequence.

I
have given no right, no responsibility, no authority to
any ashramite, to any sadhak to interfere, to change or
to try to rectify whatever goes on here around him, or
protest against whatever might seem to him wrong or out
of place, or however he might be effected by it. The only
responsibility that one has is to change one’s own
nature, the sole duty one has been entrusted with is to
see to one’s own progress only, and nothing else
is an one of one’s concern.
This is the first and most important condition that one
has to remember constantly if one wants to do one’s
sadhana her in Sri Aurobindo’s Ashram.

Sri Aurobindo came to tell the
world of the beauty of the future that must be realised.
He
came to give not a hope but a certitude of the splendour
towards which the world move. The world is not an unfortunate
accident, it is a marvel which moves towards its expression.
The
world needs the certitude of the beauty of the future.
And Sri Aurobindo has given that assurance.

No
human will can finally prevail against the Divine's will.
Let us put ourselves deliberately and exclusively on the side
of the Divine and the victory is ultimately certain.

| There
is no formal initiation, acceptance is sufficient, but I
do not usually accept unless I have seen, or the Mother
has seen the person or unless there is a clear sign that
he is meant for this yoga. Sometimes those who desire to
be disciples have seen me in dream or vision before acceptance.

Glory
to Thee, O Lord,
conqueror of every foe!
Give us the power
to endure and share in
Thy victory.

Sri Aurobindo |
Feeling
yourself alone in the midst of human beings is the sign that you
have need now to find in your own being contact with the Divine
Presence. You must then concentrate in silence and try to enter
deep within so that you may discover the Divine Presence in the
core of your consciousness, beyond all mental activity.
