101 " As a star, uncompanioned, moves in heaven Unastonished by the immensities of space,Travelling infinity by its own light,The great are strongest when they stand alone.A God-given might of being is their force,A ray from self‘s solitude of light the guide;The soul that can live alone with itself meets God;Its lonely universe is their rendezvous. "
― Sri Aurobindo , Savitri: A Legend and a Symbol
102 " There can be no immortality of the body without supramentalisation; the potentiality is there in the yogic force and yogis can live for 200 or 300 years or more, but there can be no real principle of it without the supramental.Letters On Yoga, vol.24, The Triple Transformation, p.1229 "
― Sri Aurobindo
103 " The method is to quiet the mind and, in order to do so, to concentrate on an aspiration for faith in the Divine Power, peace and calm in the mind, single-minded sincerity in the heart, and a conscious opening to the Light and Truth and Power.Letters on Himself and the Ashram, p.817 "
104 " A new consciousness is coming based upon inner silence and quietude. You must wait quietly for that to develop. True knowledge, true perceptions of people and things will come in that new silent consciousness.Letters On Yoga, vol.24, p.1414 "

108 " The touch of Earth is always reinvigorating to the son of Earth, even when he seeks a supraphysical Knowledge. It may even be said that the supraphysical can only be really mastered in its fullness - to its heights we can always reach - when we keep our feet firmly on the physical. 'Earth is His footing,' says the Upanishad, whenever it images the Self that manifests in the universe. "
109 " All-vision gathered into a single ray,As when the eyes stare at an invisible pointTill through the intensity of one luminous spotAn apocalypse of a world of imagesEnters into the kingdom of the seer. "
