My Pilgrimage to the Spirit

  Sri Aurobindo : corresp.


April 25, 1932

Fatigue may come from various reasons:

1) It may come from receiving more than the physical is ready to assimilate. The cure is then a quiet rest in conscious immobility receiving the forces but not for any other purpose than the recuperation of strength and energy.

2) It may be due to the passivity taking the form of inertia—Inertia brings the consciousness down, towards the ordinary physical level which is soon fatigued and prone to tamas. The cure here is to get back into the true consciousness and rest there, not in inertia.

3) It may be due to mere overstrain of the body—not giving it enough sleep, etc. The body is not inexhaustible and needs to be husbanded. A certain moderation is needed even in the urgency for progress—moderation not indolence.
