Sri Aurobindo — Roy, Dilip Kumar

October 26, 1936

It is quite true that you have made great progress; in spite of depressions a great change has taken place and is taking place which to us is very visible.

Don’t be afraid of vital energy in work. Vital energy is an invaluable gift of God without which nothing can be done – – as the Mother has always insisted from the beginning: it is given that His work may be done.

I am very glad it has come back and cheerfulness and optimism with it. That is as it should be.

P.S. That is the thing: let the energy have play – it can’t but strengthen the being for the greater purpose.
