03. The Triple Transformation: Psychic – Spiritual – Supramental

Fragment ID: 2650

When the mental will acquiesces in the inertia, becomes passive to it, as we say – then one remains in the passive condition and there is no push against it until it of itself passes away. If the mental will or even the vital will or some dynamic part of the nature remains untouched and can react, then there is an effort to throw it off which may shorten the interim period.
