... My inner absorption is deepened to such an extent that it has become difficult to come out to the mind, even for reporting to you my inner experiences. Yet to write is necessary. Page 215 THE INTELLECT AND ITS TRAINING What is the place of intellect with regard to the inner being and the outer being? In... that it is better to write about it. Page 230 I am told that in sadhana the outer mind can be developed directly from above. At present I see many changes in my inner being, particularly in 'the inner mind. But the outer mind seems to have remained as ignorant and unchanged as before! The change there can only come when the higher consciousness takes possession... we are mental beings, we live largely in the vital. Very few live purely and constantly in the mental consciousness. As we are more in the vital, the descent of peace straight into it is indispensable in order to calm completely our whole mental stuff. But this peace must descend into the inner vital. The inner vital can open to spiritual things more easily than the outer. To bring down ...
... difficulty come. The inner vital and physical are quite different—they have a larger, plastic, subtler, freer and richer consciousness than the surface vital and physical, much more open to the Truth and in direct touch with the universal. The inner being does not depend on the subconscient, but the outer has depended on it for thousands of lives—that is why the outer being and physical consc... could do if it acted directly or some force fully supported by the Supramental, but that occurs rarely. Page 595 The Subconscient, the Inner Being and the Outer Being In our Yoga we mean by the subconscient that quite submerged part of our being in which there is no wakingly conscious and coherent thought, will or feeling or organised reaction, but which yet receives obscurely the impressions... else the tamas (non-illumination and non-activity) across the descent. It is only if you live wholly and dynamically in the inner being and feel the outer as a quite superficial thing that you can get rid of the obstruction or minimise it until the transformation of the outer being can be made complete. It [ a condition of obscurity ] is most probably something that has come from outside and covered ...
... the outer being is correct; it must change and manifest what is within in the inner nature. But for that one must have experiences in the inner nature and through these the power of the inner nature grows till it can influence wholly and possess the outer being. To change the outer consciousness entirely without developing this inner consciousness would be too difficult. That is why these inner experiences... the true consciousness. These two parts are the inner being and the outer being. The outer being (mind, vital and physical) has now become capable of quietude and it sits in meditation in a free, happy, vacant quietude which is the first step towards the true consciousness. The inner being (inner mind, vital, physical) is not lost but gone inside—the outer part does not know where—but probably gone inside... experienced. The inner being means the psychic, the inner mind, the inner vital, the inner physical. In this condition none of these can be even touched, so there has been an essential purification. All need not feel this division into two consciousnesses, but most do. When it is there, the will that decides the action is in the inner being, not in the outer—so the invasion of the outer by vital movements ...
