Sri Aurobindo
“Earth felt the Imperishable’s passage close:
The waking ear of Nature heard her steps
And wideness turned to her its limitless eye,
And, scattered on sealed depths, her luminous smile
Kindled to fire the silence of the worlds.

All grew a consecration and a rite.

Air was a vibrant link between earth and heaven;
The wide-winged hymn of a great priestly wind
Arose and failed upon the altar hills;
The high boughs prayed in a revealing sky.

Sri Aurobindo, Savitri: A Legend and a Symbol

René Daumal
“Most of you,' he went on, 'already know how I have
been able to limit the area of investigation in a first
approximation. But one or two of you are not yet in
formed. For you, and to refresh everyone's memory, I'll
go over my calculations again.'
At that point he gave me a roguish and forceful look
demanding my complicity in this adroit falsehood. For
naturally everyone was still in the dark. But by this
simple ruse, each person had the impression of belonging to a minority, of being among 'one or two not yet in formed', felt himself surrounded by a convinced majority, and was eager to be quickly convinced himself.”
René Daumal, Mount Analogue
