Finally, if not only the mind and the vital, but the body also is
        open and can absorb the Force, it can do extraordinary things in
        the way of work without breaking down. Still, even then rest is
        necessary. That is why we insist on those who have the impulse of
        work keeping a proper balance between rest and labour.
            A complete freedom from fatigue is possible, but that comes
        only when there is a complete transformation of the law of the
        body by the full descent of a supramental Force into the earth-
        nature.
                                                     CWSA 32: 256-58

        The Divine can lead, he does not drive. There is an internal free-
        dom permitted to every mental  being called man to assent or not
        to assent to  the   Divine  leading — how else  can  any real spiritual
        evolution  be  done ?                        CWSA 32: 144-45


        All the play in this world is based on a certain relative free will in
        the  individual  being. Even in  the  sadhana it remains and his con-
        sent is necessary at each step — even though it is  by  surrender to
        the   Divine  that he escapes from ignorance and separateness and
        ego, it must  be  at every step a free surrender.
                                     *
        All can be  done by the Divine, the heart and nature purified, the
        inner consciousness awakened,  the  veils removed, if one gives
        oneself to  the   Divine  with trust and confidence — and even if
        one  can not do so fully at once, yet  the  more one does so,  the
        more  the  inner help and guidance comes and  the  contact and  the
        experience of  the   Divine  grows within. If  the  questioning mind
        be comes less active and humility and  the  will to surrender grow
        in you, this ought to  be  perfectly possible. No other strength and
        tapasya are  then needed, but this alone.
                                     *
