Sri Aurobindo's Birthday

Darshan Message of 15 August 1971

A veil behind the heart, a lid over the mind divide us from the Divine. Love and devotion rend the veil, in the quietude of the mind the lid thins and vanishes.

Sri Aurobindo

Siddhi Day

One must rely on the Divine and yet do some enabling sadhana the Divine gives the fruits not by the measure of the sadhana but by the measure of the soul and its aspiration. Also worrying does no good I shall be this, I shall be that, what shall I be? Say "I am ready to be not what I want but what the Divine wants me to be" - all the rest should go on that base.

Sri Aurobindo
