Will, Desire and Aspiration
Q: Is it not true that the will becomes or changes into desire when it comes down into the lower nature?
It usually does so in the vital or at least it gets a strong mixture of desire.
Q: I suppose the vital despair is the cause of my not being able to put up a persistent and calm aspiration and will.
The calm and steady will must be the mental being’s. There is no reason why the mental being should allow itself to be at the mercy of the vital.
– Sri Aurobindo
