3. The Mother and the Practice of the Integral Yoga

Fragment ID: 19313

What I have to see is that my consciousness supports the working of the Mother’s Force in me. For example, if my being constantly supported the Mother’s work, there would hardly be any halt in sadhana due to the tamas in me; the tamasic inertia would get transformed into peace without rising up and darkening the other parts of the being.

Yes, that is how it should happen – but it is difficult so long as the inner being is not conscious and receptive at all times and in all conditions – and it is difficult and takes time to establish such a condition.
