The Mother of Sri Aurobindo Ashram

Q: If we let energy go out in work. are we not open to any forces that can take hold of our mind?

Certainly not – if the consciousness remains within, there is no harm done by the energy being put out. The energy is meant to go out in work – even when there is right consciousness energy goes out. It is the consciousness that ought not to go out.

– Sri Aurobindo
