Series VII

701)  One important reason for the prosperity of the West is the higher cultural freedom the woman was accorded in social life. The energy thus released goes to the building of the nation.

702)  The form without content refuses to accept or assimilate higher doses of benefit and tends to its own level in the end.

703)  Consecration must be preceded by all-inclusive concentration. Similarly, surrender must be preceded by the perfection of giving up initiatives.

          _®©õC¸¢uõÀ \µnõPv £¼US®.

704)  Sensitivity decides, never thinks.

          `k® ö\õµøn²® ]¢vUS•ß ö\¯À£k®.

705)     The clash of the mind and vital is never known to have led to the success of the mind.

             ©Ú•®, EnºÄ® ÷£õµõi ©Ú® öÁßÓvÀø».

706)     Attraction, if strong, overcomes disturbed sensitivity that is outraged.

             Bø\ öÁmP©Ô¯õx.

707)     The ideas of The Life Divine arranged in order brighten the mind. When recalled in order they energise the thought. When the ideas on their own original momentum move the chain of thought, the mind is enlightened.

708)     Desire changing into love generates the sweetest of sensations that culminates in psychic chillness.

             Aߦ ]Ó¨¦.

709)     The psychic can give the poor human parts its original perfection in form or look or touch.

             Bß©õÄUS›¯ ]Ó¨¦, AuØ÷P²›¯ ]Ó¨¦.

710)  The woman’s physical attachment to her child and her wish to be dominated by the man are the same physical energies expresisng differently.

          Ah[SÁvÀ BÚ¢u® ö£ÖÁx ö£sø©.

711)  The world is so made that anyone, in spite of what he is or what he is not, can reach the top, if only he follows the rules of reaching the top.

          \mh® öu›¢uõÀ Ea]US¨ ÷£õP»õ®.

712)     Clarity of mind achieves as much as the goodness of the temper permits.

             Sn® Ch® öPõkzuõÀ ©ÚzöuÎÄ \õvUS®.

713)  Silent mind is willing mind. It achieves.

          ö©ÍÚ® \õvUS®.

714)  Perfection at the level where you are blocks your progress. It is the imperfection that allows for progress.

          {øÓÄUS ÁÈ ö\´Áx SøÓ.

715)     When a man finds his knowledge achieving, he scarcely knows that the achievement is in spite of his knowledge.

             ÷uõØÓzøu öÁßÓuõP AÔ²® ©Ú®.

716)  Ignorance recognising itself as knowledge and wisdom is the stamp of human consciousness.

          ©Ûuß ©hø©ø¯²® ÷©uõ»õ\® GÚ {øÚ¨£õß.

717)     In spite of the psychic sweetness overflowing through the skin, one can be truly devoted to evil and be a willing instrument of it.

             Bß© ÂȨ¦® A_µÝUS EuÄ®.

718)     Analysis will show we are carried on by innumerable Forces. Understanding begins when we master them.

719)     Mastery of a physician increases with the increasing knowledg eof the parts of the body. Today the minuteness of that knowledge goes on increasing. Hence the increasing mastery of the doctor. Mastery of life response needs similar mastery of the details.

             vÓø© Á͵ ]Ôvß ö£¸ø©ø¯ AÔ¯ ÷Ásk®

720)     The capacity of subatomic particles to change their movement when observed is a fine example of matter giving a response to movements of life.

             PÁÚ® PÀø»²® PhÄÍõUS®.

721)     In a noiseless neighbourhood, Life Response can arise as a great inner Silence or negatively as a sudden burst of noise. Life Response is a concept of life and thus can be extended to all conceivable fields. Having known it fully, to extend it to one more field will appear to be a new study.

             To trust falsehood is false.         

723)     The opposites are made for each other.

724)     When you want to speak to another, do not do it. Speak to Mother.

             AßøÚ°h® TÖ.  ©ØÓÁºPÎh® ÷PmPõ÷u.  

725)     Life Response is a concept developed on the basis of Sri Aurobindo’s thought. Therefore, it is essential to know all the bases there. One is the continuity of life otherwise expressed as the wholeness of it. They occur everywhere in His writings. A few can be cited.

             1) Matter and Spirit are one -- Chpater II, Bk. I, Life Divine

             2) Time and Timelss are simultaneous -- p. 359-36.

             3) One and the Many -- pg. 350.

             4) Being, Becoming and Being of the Becoming

             In life, the practical work of the body and the thought of the Mind are simultaneously present in the emotions where they meet.

             ÁõÌÄ®, CøÓÁÝ®, E»P•®, _ÁºUP•®, ãÁõz©õÄ®, £µ©õz©õÄ® Jß÷Ó.

726)     A theoretical scientist is of the Mind. A practical technician is of the body. We cannot forget one exists in the other, in spite of their professed aversion or antagonism. The nodus of life or work lies where they meet. In truth, they always meet everywhere.

              EÓUP•®, EøǨ¦® Jß÷Ó.

727       Some people have a great mission. Until the right social and human circumstances appear, they act in ways that prepare them for the final goal.

             AßøÚ Á¸® Áøµ £PÁõß Põzv¸¢uõº.

728)     Each man has his own urges that are uncontrollable at his level. One expression of it craves for destruction of peers, particularly weaker ones around him. It is curbed or controlled ONLY by social authority. Otherwise, he will be a tyrant and will bring about havoc.

             Aø©v¯õP, £õxPõ¨£õP ÁõÌÁx |õPŸPzuõ¼Àø».  AvPõµzuõÀ.  Fº AvPõµ® ö\´¯õÂmhõÀ EÒÍx® ÷£õS®.

729)     Man is subtle, even when he is ignorant of it. His subtlety, like every other thing, is seen in the negative. While negative, he is anxious to refuse, even if something is beneficial to him.

             ©Ö¨¦US ¸] AvP®.

730)     Life Response that arises as a result of our initiatives is what I am mostly confining myself to. But Sri Aurobindo’s yoga needs the discipline of NOT taking any initiative. Of course, it does not interfere with the study. Life Responses, as a reuslt of our NOT taking initiatives will be initiated by the Force of Mother. Laws of action remaining the same, the one will be a fight with bow and arrows, while the other will be modern warfare. The character of observation here changes considerably.

731)     One of the striking areas to evoke Life Response is our own health. For the sake of experiment, it is best to take minor ailments like a cut or headache or gas formation. A thought that locates their cause can release energies to heal the cut a day earlier, make the ache in the head vanish in a trice or belch out the gas. Even on major ailments an experiment can be made if cure is not aimed at, but analysis. It needs a profound study of the disease.

             Gsn® ÷|õø¯U Sn¨£kzx®.

732)     Computer is a sensitive instrument. It responds to our attitudes and attention readily. One can make the computer his own field of study. It is moreso in the Internet. Internet is the instrument of subtle knowledge.  So, it can give even subtle responses, rather subtle Life Responses.  Indians who are emotional and subtle know this as their own experience.

             Internet `m_© Gvöµõ¼ u¸®.

733)     As the knowledge of these laws grows more and more comprehensive, one can make an experiment for oneself as long as the ego is not tickled.

             1) Personal events of the coming week predicted. 2) Outcome of national events anticipated. 3) Unknown areas of history evaluated.

             Ph¢uøuU Po¨£x®, Á¸Áøu {ºn°¨£x® •i²®.

734)     Unpremeditated ‘predictions’ come to pass before the thought arises in the mind. When that comes to stay, one has a good grasp of a sense of this Response.

             {øÚÄ®, ö\¯¾® ÷|ºÁx {uº\Ú®.

735)     One more area fit for experimentation is a work given up as impossible a long time ago. Gradually examine the laws of the knot, the knot will burst asunder. However trifling the event is, the significance is none the less significant.

             AÂÇõu •ia_ AÂÊ®.

736)     We now track the response to Acts. These responses exist in several layers, all of which follow the same rules with variations the plane demands. Acts, thoughts, and impulses are three parts of the first layer. Similarly, the feelings of the vital and below it the physical sensations exist. Each is a world in itself. As the understanding and mastery grow, one will feel a certain richness and fullness spilling over from the consciousness to substance.

             \mh® Jß÷Ó, ÷»õP[PÒ £».

737)     The scientist offers a great physical disicpline to his work of which fidelity to facts is important. The artist worships his art. To him it is sacred. Yoga demands the discipline of the scientist and the sacred worship of the artist. The yogi converts his own life and BODY into his laboratories. He must enjoy an abundant caution.  One Golden rule is, life is divine, work is yoga, any thought is sacred. A discipline that possesses the yogi must always be present.

             u® E°÷µ E»P©õUS® ÷¯õP®.

738)     The END of this line of discipline is to move the entire universe by one’s thought. It is thus that Sri Aurobindo won the 2nd World War, and Mother sent the Chinese back from India. Purity of heart, adoraiton of the being can be seen in finding men and matters Divine.

             ©Ú® Bz©õøÁ Aøh¢uõÀ, E»P® AئuU Põm]¯õS®.

739)     As all successful people have the vital intuition of knowing people and circumstnaces, one who wants ot master Life Response must have, or create that intuition of life.

             ÁõÌøÁ BÍ ÁõÌøÁÔ¯ ÷Ásk®.

740)     With a systematic observation of life events based on the laws of life, this intuition can be learnt as a skill.

             •øÓ²hß £°ßÓõÀ Gøu²® PØP»õ®.

741)     Man is beaten down by the strong, betrayed by the weak. The sadhak gets both.

             ÁõÌÂÀ J¸ £UP® Ci, EµÀ ÷£õ».

          ÷¯õP® ©zuÍ®.

742)     That contact of life which reveals the hidden knowledge -- the plane of mind -- is an energising contact. One can go up several levels to Mother, but to rise to the mind is the minimum requirement.

             A¸Q¾ÒÍÁº AßøÚ.  Áõ̾ÒÍx ©Ú®.*

743)     Life is brought to man by a woman, especially a woman who is determined not to leave him. Moreso, if he is wedded to her even without the compulsion of law. He who is not fortunate enough to escape that constriction must make a law unto himself not to give anything up that he presently is hampered with until it leaves him on its own accord.

             Gøu²® |õhõuÁß Gøu²® »UPUThõx.

744)     When a man loves adventure, Life loves him for giving her the opportunity so far denied, but moves faster than he can catch up. Man cannot hope to catch up with life without knowing its laws. Knowledge of its laws too is not enough. To catch up with life, one has to overtake it by knowing the plane higher than life, the mind.

             ÁõÌøÁ¯Ô¯ ©Ú® ©»º¢x ÁõÌÄUS |Ö©n® uµ ÷Ásk®.

745)     Very simple facts are often before our eyes totally defying analysis. One bursts into never ending joy on seeing the photograph of a loved one, far more intense than when meeting him personally. Here is a goldmine of understanding to be unearthed. Life will respond with new dimensions of understanding.

          Gί Âå¯[PÒ AÔÄUS Gmhõ©À vøPUS®.

746)     When there is a Life Response and we understand it as a direct consequence of an earlier act, the comprehension is complete. Assuming we do not know that earlier act, an analysis will unearth a host of other understandings.

             öu›¢uøu AvP©õPz öu›¢uõÀ, öu›¯õux öu›²®.

747)     Strength collects, conscious or unconscious. Unconscious strength escapes loss. If insisted on, loss does come later. Even then, after the loss passes, strength again collects unconsciously for one to be careful or careless.

                |èh® Á¢uõ¾®, Ps‰i¯õP C¸¢uõ¾®, £»® Á¢u£i C¸US®.  ÂȨ¦ ©mk÷© Põ¨£õØÖ®.

748)     A work is contemplated. Interference shows in several ways, before, after and during its execution. When you arre stronger than the work but the work itself is not right, it comes later. Coming before the work means the interference is to prevent it. Its occurrence during the work shows an inner conflict.

             •i¢u¤ß öuõ¢uµÄ Á¢uõÀ, CÛ Cøu ö\´¯õ÷u GÚ Aºzu®.

749)     To know that a defect is really no defect, that it is greater than the strength because this defect can be transformed into something greater than strength -- as Ignorance is greater than Knowledge -- is the first mental opening for one who studies what The Life Divine can give, especially Life Response.

             SøÓøÁ {øÓøÁ Âh¨ ö£›¯x GÚ AÔÁx ÁõÌøÁ {øÓÄ£kzx®.

750)     The process of creation is a wide theme in The Life Divine. Eight planes, four knowledges, seven ignorances, four methods, energising, dividing, creation of forms and a few others figure there. When Life Response is studied in the context of each of these processes, it will render itself clearly.
