The Mother of Sri Aurobindo Ashram with Dyuman

Mother, what must I do so that the fire of aspiration never goes out?

One keeps this fire lit by throwing into it all one’s difficulties, all one’s desires, all one’s imperfections. In the morning and evening when you come to me, you should ask me in your heart to keep the fire lit and offer me all these things as fuel.
