Need for miracles
We should turn this need for miracles into a conscious as-
piration to something — something that already is, that exists,
and that will be manifested with the help of all those aspiration
s: all those aspiration s are necessary, or rather, looking at it in
a truer way, they are an accompaniment — a pleasant accom-
paniment — to the eternal unfolding.
Basically, people with a very strict logic tell you, "Why pray?
Why aspire, why ask? The Lord does what He wills and will al-
ways do what He wills." It's perfectly obvious, it goes without
saying, but this fervor, "Lord, manifest Yourself!" gives His man-
ifestation a more intense vibration.
Otherwise He would never have made the world as it is —
there is a special power, a special joy, a special vibration in the
world's intensity of aspiration to become again what it is.
And that is why — partly, fragmentarily why — there is
evolution.

Effect of aspiration
I did not understand very well the answer to this questions:
"Does the power of aspiration vary in different sadhaks
according to their natures?"

Ah! Yes.
You see, I think the question has been put badly. I believe
the one who asked the questions wanted to say "the effect of
aspiration " and he put "power". That is, aspiration in every-
one, no matter who it is, has the same power. But the effect of
this aspiration is different. For aspiration is aspiration : if you
have aspiration, in itself it has a power. Only, this aspiration
calls down an answer, and this answer, the effect, which is the
result of the aspiration, depends upon each one, for it depends
