Dec 17, 2014 – The Knowledge of the Psychic

See God everywhere and be not frightened by masks. Believe that all falsehood is truth in the making or truth in the breaking, all failure an effectuality concealed, all weakness strength hiding itself from its own vision, all pain a secret & violent ecstasy. If thou believest ?rmly & unweariedly, in the end thou wilt see & experience the All-true, Almighty & All-blissful.

Sri Aurobindo

The Knowledge of the Psychic

The perception of the exterior consciousness may deny the perception of the psychic.
But the psychic has the true knowledge, an intuitive instinctive knowledge. It says, “I know; I cannot give reasons, but I know.” For its knowledge is not mental, based on experience or proved true. It does not believe after proofs are given: faith is the movement of the soul whose knowledge is spontaneous and direct.
Even if the whole world denies and brings forward a thousand proofs to the contrary, still it knows by an inner knowledge, a direct perception that can stand against everything, a perception by identity. The knowledge of the psychic is something which is concrete and tangible, a solid mass.

You can also bring it into your mental, your vital and your physical; and then you have an integral faith – a faith which can really move mountains.
