is to feel that one wants, one has, this complete inner adherence:
you cannot do but that, that which you have been given to do,
and what you have not been given to do you cannot do. But at
another moment the work may change; at any moment it may be
something else, if it is decided that it be something else. It is there
that plasticity comes in. That makes a very great difference. It is
well understood that those who work are told, "Yes, work, that is
your way of surrendering", but it is a beginning. This way has to be
progressive. It is only a beginning, do you understand?
CWM 4: 372-73 The Mother
Please initiate me in to a tangible form of Yoga . I make this as-
surance that I shall follow your instructions to the very letter and
refer to you my doubts and difficulties on the way.
There is no method in this Yoga except to concentrate, preferably
in the heart, and call the presence and power of the Mother to
take up the being and by the workings of her force transform the
consciousness; one can concentrate also in the head or between
the eyebrows, but for many this is a too difficult opening. When
the mind falls quiet and the concentration becomes strong and
the aspiration in tense, then there is a beginning of experience.
The more the faith, the more rapid the result is likely to be. For the
rest one must not depend on one's own efforts only, but succeed
in establishing a contact with the Divine and a receptivity to the
Mother's Power and Presence.
CWSA 32: 216-17
Nobody is fit for the sadhana — i.e. nobody can do it by his sole
capacity. It is a question of preparing oneself to bring in fully
the Force not one's own that can do it with one's consent and
aspiration. CWSA 29: 32
