Sahana Devi's recollections of her sadhana and selected correspondence with Sri Aurobindo. The parts in Bengali were translated by Nirodbaran.
Sri Aurobindo : corresp.
THEME/S
MYSELF: Mother dear, learning everything and living within — what a joy it brings! Even then, just for a bubbling vital pleasure, we forget it and cling to transient sentimentalities and create no end of trouble and suffering. I perceive clearly that attachment of any kind to men or things is a big hindrance to our progress.
One word more, please. Now I don’t feel the intense peace that came down before. It seems rather natural; the peace has become part of the vast experience and one with my flesh and blood.
SRI AUROBINDO: That is how it should be. It should go so far indeed that you would feel this peace and vastness as your very self, the abiding stuff of your consciousness — unchangeably there.
