06. Transformation of the Mind

Fragment ID: 2853

When the physical mind is disturbed by the vital, it is not easily convinced because its reasoning is supplied to it by the vital which thinks according to its own desires and feelings – unless a great clarity from the psychic or from the thinking mind above comes to the rescue.

It is the psychic consciousness, not perfect but still well developed, that supports some of those whom you mention and makes it easy for them to go on in faith – but it is only after much vital difficulty that it developed in them,– and there is no reason why that should not happen speedily in you also.
