For us here there is only one thing that counts. We aspire
        for the Divine, live for the Divine, act for the Divine.
                                     *
            It is ages of ardent aspiration that have brought us here to
        do the Divine's Work.

        Receiving the Divine Force rightly
            When I sit on the staircase to your room, I feel something
            very  special  there.  But  now  I  find  that  wrong  things  are
            coming in when I sit there. I hope I am not disturbing the
            atmosphere.


            The force is there in the atmosphere, but you must receive
        it in the right way — in the spirit of self-giving, openness, confi-
        dence. All the rest depends on that.
                                                       CWSA 35: 631


        The difference of the atmosphere
            I was surprised to learn that X and Y are staying in the town.
            How, after being in the Ashram for two years, can they bear
            the outside atmosphere? Z, who just returned from a visit
            home, tells me he could not endure the atmosphere over
            there.

            It is certainly strange. Most people after the atmosphere
        here cannot tolerate the ordinary atmosphere. If they go out-
        side, they are restless until they return. Even A's aunt who was
        here only for a few months writes in the same way. But prob-
        ably when people get into the control of a falsehood as X and Y
        did, they are projected into the unregenerated vital nature and
        no longer feel the difference of the atmosphere.
