P. 41
into strength and perfect truth, hammer straight what is wry and
perverse and expel what is impure or defective. But for her what is
done in a day might have taken centuries; without her Ananda might
be wide and grave or soft and sweet and beautiful but would lose
the flaming joy of its most absolute intensities. To knowledge she
gives a conquering might, brings to beauty and harmony a high and
mounting movement and imparts to the slow and difficult labour
after perfection an impetus that multiplies the power and shortens
the long way. Nothing can satisfy her that falls short of the supreme
ecstasies, the highest heights, the noblest aims, the largest vistas.
Therefore with her is the victorious force of the Divine and it is by
grace of her fire and passion and speed if the great achievement can
be done now rather than hereafter.
