DECEMBER 1926 ­ 6 JANUARY 1927

 

When the fullness of the supramental life-energy is in the body, then all difficulties will be reduced to nothingness.

It is the life-energy in all the body, not only in the seven centres that is demanded. Once in all the seven centres it cannot fail to pour through all the body.

It must take possession of all the cells, the flesh, muscles, bones, blood, nerves, skin, hair; then the body will be ready for transformation.

The life-energy to be firmly founded today in the last centres. The rest to follow in the next three days.

==

These things are author[it]ative suggestions; it depends on the energy and the adhara subject to the divine sanction from above whether they are fulfilled in the time fixed or have to wait for a later period.

==

If founded, all the remnants of the old illnesses and pains and bad habits of the body will disappear altogether and no new ones will be possible.  


1246

There is nothing complete yet done in the material physical Nature, and yet till that is done, there will be nothing complete in finality anywhere. Many things are established, but even the most advanced need the last touches or even many last touches.

==

There is still the problem of the physical material, the flesh and the organs. These have to become unassailable and invulnerable; that to be settled in its self-maintenance independently of food by one means or another.

==

Today, one at least of these problems ought to be settled in effective physical principle. There can be no sense of security till that is done.

Monday next. An ascending scale till then. The ascent today. No more for the present.

The ascent began, but it has been interrupted as usual by an attack. No matter; it will overcome, almost immediately overcome. It is a matter of the nerves which can still be touched by pain and suffering.

[In the margin beside the above paragraphs, Sri Aurobindo wrote the following note, then cancelled it:]

Observe: the flow of the energy has begun, but is still subject to interruption. That interruption should disappear today.

Youth and beauty manifest in the face, but are interrupted. That interruption must begin to disappear entirely today.  


1247

Make way for the Supreme Force. It will take up your respon- sibilities.

Today. The difficulty finishes today. The rest afterwards.

Get rid of the representative. The higher power can do its work.

==

Monday [3 January 1927 ]

The supreme Force descends. The difficulty is finished. The representative imperative still obstructs, but it is ready to disappear.

Today it disappears. Not altogether, but fundamentally and in principle it disappears. It is needed no more.

The supreme Power is taking up all the movements. It will turn them into the Truth. No effort is needed, no aid from the mind or any of the instruments; even the individual consent is no longer needed.

Tuesday

The fulfilment has undeniably begun. Till the 7th January this present development; the last mental clearance, the first final opening.

 

Wednesday

All has been cleared of what was left of the pure representative; only a colouring, an attenuating edge remains in the interpretative imperative. This has to disappear and will disappear, as the true form develops. If something lingers for a time, it will be of no potency and of no importance.

The full light in the interpretative, today The full power in the imperative tomorrow.

Thursday. Jan 6.

What has been promised has been achieved. There remains the perfection of the supreme supermind taking up the supreme supramental supermind, the development of the Trikalsiddhi Tapas and the manifestation of the Gnosis. This from today to the 12th.

The fullness achieved has come on the 6th one day earlier than anticipated, but on the day promised. What was promised for the 7th was the completion of the first curve (or second, (1) 25 ­ 3d (2) 3d to 7th (3) 7th to 12th). Tomorrow therefore the appearance .. of the gnosis in the action of the supreme supermind

For her peace and surrender.
