tion and pride have to be kept far away from it; for any mixture
of the perversion will corrupt the psychic or spiritual action and
prevent a true fulfilment.
The tendency to physical chastity in women is not abnormal,
it is fairly common and includes a very high feminine type.

Transformation of the sex centre
The transformation of the sex-centre and its energy is need-
ed for the physical siddhi; for this energy is the support in the
body of all the mental, vital and physical forces of the nature.
It has to be changed into a mass and a movement of intimate
Light, creative Power, pure Divine Ananda. It is only the bring-
ing down of the supramental Light, Power and Bliss into the
centre that can so change it. As to the working afterwards, it
is the supramental Truth and the creative vision and will of the
Divine Mother that will determine it. But it will be a working
of the conscious Truth, not of the Darkness and Ignorance to
which sexual desire and enjoyment belong; it will be a power
of preservation and free desireless radiation of the life-forces
and not of their throwing out and waste. Avoid the imagina-
tion that the supramental life will be only a heightened satisfac-
tion of the desires of the vital and the body; nothing can be a
greater obstacle to the Truth in its descent than this hope of a
glorification of the animal in human nature. Mind wants the su-
pramental state to be a confirmation of its own cherished ideas
and preconceptions; the vital wants it to be a glorification of its
own desires; the physical wants it to be a rich prolongation of
its own comforts and pleasures and habits. If it were to be that,
it would be only an exaggerated and highly magnified consum-
mation of the animal and the human nature, not a transition
from the human into the Divine.
