"Thus can he utterly renounce to the supramental Shakti his works as well as the fruits of his works and act only as the conscious instrument of the eternal Worker. No longer giving the sanction, he will rather receive in his instruments and follow in her hands a divine mandate. No longer doing works, he will accept their execution through him by her unsleeping Force." Sri Aurobindo, “The Synthesis of Yoga," Op. cit., p. 231. "First there must be the freedom of the impersonal Witness; afterwards there can be the control of the Master, the Ishwara.” Ibid. p. 238.
"But there is still another step that calls us, an ascent out of this cosmic identity into the identity of the Divine Transcendence.” Ibid. p.254. Bhagavad Gita XVIII:66.
