My Pilgrimage to the Spirit

  Sri Aurobindo : corresp.


May 5, 1932

Certainly; one can act and cure it. Only it is not always easy as there is much resistance in matter, a resistance of inertia. Much persistence is necessary; gradually the control of the body or of a particular illness becomes stronger. Again, to cure an illness, is comparatively easy, to make the body immune from it in future is more difficult. A chronic illness is more difficult to deal with entirely than an occasional one.

So long as the control of the body is imperfect there are all these difficulties.

If you can succeed by the inner action in preventing increase, that is always something; you have then by abhyasa to increase the power till it becomes able to cure. Note that so far as the power is not entirely there, some aid of physical means is not to be altogether neglected.
