Letters of Sri Aurobindo
Volume IV - Part 4

It is not my working, but your moods that are queer. You get something1 no reasonable being would expect under the ordinary laws of Nature and then you fancy you haven’t got it and wail because everything is not absolutely, continuously, faultlessly, increasingly, illimitably miraculous through and through and always and for ever. In no sadhana that I know of does absolute sustained perfection in everything come with a rush and stay celestially perfect for ever more. If it were so there would be no need for sadhana – one would only have to gaze at heaven a little and grow wings and fly into the spheres, a triumphant godhead.
1 Sri Aurobindo sent the disciple a spiritual force which enabled him to write a very good poem. – Ed.
