"Aspiration is the call of the being for higher things – for the Divine, for all that belongs to the higher or Divine Consciousness." (Sri Aurobindo)

This taste for supreme adventure is aspiration – an aspiration which takes hold of you completely and flings you, without calculation and without reserve and without a possibility of withdrawal, into the great adventure of the divine discovery, the great adventure of the divine meeting, the yet greater adventure of the divine Realisation." (The Mother)
