” …Everything in the mind derives from and is a limited, inferior, groping … of something in the supermind. … and needs the help, intervention, guidance of the Divine Self. … supermind is the divine mind … it is on the supramental plane that the individual arrives at his luminous, right, integral relation with the Supreme. …. We have to become aware of the divine Shakti, draw her to us, call her in to fill the whole system, … she will fill us, preside over us, take up all our inner activities, our outer life, our Yoga. … She will bring down the supramental light in to the mental levels … transform all the lower energies into energies of her supramental nature and raise us … revealing herself as the power of the Puroshottama.
