Sri Aurobindo — Sahana Devi

Undated

I do not at all understand why you should think that the Mother was displeased with you for any reason whatever. She was just as she is always with you. Even if you have made any mistake, the Mother now is disposed to over-look mistakes and leave it to the pressure of the Light and the psychic being of the sadhak to set things right. But why on earth should she be displeased because you wanted to stop the French lessons with N or for any such trivial reason! Whether you continue or suspend your lessons is a; detail which has to be settled in accordance with the’ condition of your mind and the needs of your sadhana and it can be settled either way. It is surprising that you should think Mother could show displeasure over so slight a matter. You must get over a nervousness of this kind and not disturb your good condition by imaginations – for it is an imagination since it had no reality behind it. Have amore perfect confidence and do not let your mind create difficulties where there are none.
