Q: We must develop our consciousness in order to conquer death, mustn’t we? People think that as soon as they have entered Ashram they have become immortal!

People think so because for a long time no death took place in the Ashram. Those who had died were either visitors or sadhaks who had gone away from here. At the beginning, people had a very strong faith, but as the numbers increased, the faith begin to diminish. However, why should one fear death? The soul is immortal and passes from one life and body to another. Besides, fear has no place in Yoga.

Q: We fear because of our attachments.

One must have no attachments in Yoga.

– Sri Aurobindo
