“Royaume de Dieu est en train de se bâtir.”
Georges Van Vrekhem, Au delà de l’espèce humaine - La vie et l’oeuvre de Sri Aurobindo et de la Mère

“« Les mots, les langages sont impropres à exprimer quelque chose qui dépasse la conscience. Dès que l’on formule, ça descend. »{75} « Dès qu’on parle, ça a l’air d’une caricature », a-t-elle dit également. Et Sri Aurobindo : « La vérité spirituelle est une vérité de l’esprit et non une vérité de l’intellect. »{76}”
