The Mother of Sri Aurobindo Ashram

Inspirations come from very many different places. There are inspirations that may be very material, there are inspirations that may be vital, there are inspirations that come from all kinds of mental planes, and there are very, very rare inspirations that come from the higher mind or from a still higher region. All inspirations do not come from the same place.

Hence, to be inspired does not necessarily mean that one is a higher being…. One may be inspired also to do and say many stupid things!
