Aurobindo invokes them and asks them to take possession of his
        nature. But for one who wants union with the Supreme, for one
        who aspires for the supreme Realisation, this cannot be sufficient.
        This is why at the end he calls upon Kali to give him the power to
        go beyond them all.
            For Kali is the most powerful aspect of the universal Mother
        and her power is greater than that of all the gods in her creation.
        To unite with her means therefore to become more vast, more
        complete, more powerful than all the gods together and that is
        why Sri Aurobindo places union with her above and beyond all the
        others.
        (CWM:10:84-85)                                                            The Mother


        He invokes all these Vedic gods and tells each one to take posses-
        sion of him; and then he tells Kali to free him from their influence!
        It is very amusing!
            It’s written in black and white, but the people here read and
        don’t understand what they’re reading, and that’s a pity. They
        have to be told, ‘This means that’!
                           (The Mother, Conversation with a disciple, Feb-11, 1961)


        Nothing that is impossible
            There is nothing that is impossible to her (Divine Shakti) who
        is the conscious Power and universal Goddess all creative from
        eternity and armed with the Spirit’s omnipotence. All knowledge,
        all strengths, all triumph and victory, all skill and works are in her
        hands and they are full of the treasures of the Spirit and of all per-
        fections and siddhis. She is Maheshwari, goddess of the supreme
        knowledge, and brings to us her vision for all kinds and wide-
        nesses of truth, her rectitude of the spiritual will, the calm and
        passion of her supramental largeness, her felicity of illumination:
        she is Mahakali, goddess of the supreme strength, and with her
        are all mights and spiritual force and severest austerity of tapas
