The only way of establishing a constant silence in one's mind is to open oneself to higher region and let this higher consciousness, force, light descend constantly into the lower mind and take possession of it. And here, when this happen, this lower mind can remain constantly quiet and silent, because it is this one which acts and fills the whole being. One can act, write and speak without the mind being active, with this force which comes from above penetrating the mind and using it; and the mind itself becomes just a passive instrument.
The Mother, Questions and Answers 1954: 22 September 1954
There is nothing mind can do that cannot be better done in the mind's immobility and thought-free stillness.
When mind is still, then Truth gets her chance to be heard in the purity of the silence.
Sri Aurobindo, Essays Divine and Human: Man and Superman
The physical mind is that part of the mind which is concerned with the physical things only—it depends on the sense mind, sees only objects, external actions, draws its ideas from the data given by external things, infers from them only and knows no other Truth—until it is enlightened from above.
Sri Aurobindo, Letters on Yoga - I: The Mind
The true physical mind is the instrument of understanding and ordered action on physical things. Only instead of being obscure and ignorant and fumbling as now or else guided only by an external knowledge it has to become conscious of the Divine and to act in accordance with an inner light, will and knowledge putting itself into contact and an understanding unity with the physical world.
