03. The Triple Transformation: Psychic – Spiritual – Supramental

Fragment ID: 2635

If the workings are really those of the higher consciousness or if these predominate the ego fades out – but there is also often a wideness of opening to the universal mental, vital, physical existence and, if the sadhak responds more to this than to the higher consciousness, then he does not get free. Sometimes even the ego gets aggrandised. But if the psychic is awake, then there is not this danger; one finds one’s true being in place of the ego.
