Sri Aurobindo — Kamala Amin

November 1, 1932

Kamala,

In your dream the woman you saw was clearly the appearance taken by a hostile force that wanted to take you out of the Ashram and the yoga and the Mother’s protection into the ordinary consciousness and the world and the life outside. If any pressure of that kind comes in any form, what you have to do is resolutely and persistently to say No; for then the hostile force loses its strength and can do nothing. The other details of the dream were all symbolic of the approach of your inner being to the Mother.
