Tuesday Talks

This talk is about the different ways of looking at the human body particularly in its relation with the Soul and the Spirit.

There are two ends that come together in the play of the universe. On the one side, it is the Divine Will pressing from within and Above. On the other side it is the receptivity, readiness, and openness of the instrument.

The present talk touches upon the subject of miracles from different angles based upon the vision and understanding given to us by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother…

The more we quieten the consciousness by removing from it the element of desire and doubts and ignorant conceptions, the more the Divine Will begins to act within and through us. The present talk is focused upon the action of the Divine Will.

Will is the switch that turns on the other members giving them force and momentum. It is the power that runs through the warp and woof of life. Of course to be truly effective, we must learn to distinguish it from wishful thinking, wants and desires. These are ‘willings’ that come to us from the atmosphere and not the true will, not the will of our being.

Thought is a power, a greater power is the Idea. Ideas, thoughts, feelings are soft powers. They take time but when their work is over, it is more thoroughly done. This talk refers to Sri Aurobindo’s writing on the subject.
