Hard is it to Persuade Earth-Nature’s Change
|

Hard is it to persuade earth-nature’s change. Harder is it also to impose change on the working of the nature of the earth. The issue is constitutional. The habits are pathological, related to body and health, of various kinds. The last habit is the habit of death. But, before that, there are the habits of suffering, error, falsehood, ignorance, gloom, pain, inertia, tamas, depression, fear, bhaya; there are suggestions of sadness, despair, of suicide, suggestions from what the Mother calls “the thieves of the vital world”. All these are parts of or consequences of our physical and sometimes psychological makeup and hard they are to eliminate. That is what we are presently composed of. Savitri’s task is connected with it, and she has to pay a heavy price, by accepting this world’s ignominy and its stubbornness, stubbornness of the mortal life. Its entire past stands against all progress.
