Sri Aurobindo's diary of his yogic practice between 1909 and 1927.
Sri Aurobindo's diary of his yogic practice between 1909 and 1927. This two-volume record of sadhana contains fairly regular entries between 1912 and 1920 and a few entries in 1909, 1911 and 1927. It also contains related materials Sri Aurobindo wrote about his practice of yoga during this period, including descriptions of the seven 'chatusthayas' (groups of four elements), which are the basis of the yoga of the 'Record'.

No power will descend tonight.
Knowledge first, power afterwards.
Telepathy perfects itself first, then tapas, then the supreme T².
Till then nothing else can be finally perfect.
Tonight Ananda, Drishya, Knowledge, Telepathic and Tapasic T².

There can be no doubt of the result. Only the time is doubtful and the full extent of the achievement. Tomorrow the entire lifting of the obstacle. Once more a free and rapid action. There is also the restoration of the first two chatusthayas. That will take place fully tonight. Nothing more tonight of an absolute character. The removal of the fragments of illness is not yet done, but it is preparing and will happen in a short time.
This is all for the time being.
