One can be like that, like a great flame rising in aspiration,
and at the same time as though this flame formed a vase,
a large vase, opening and receiving all that comes down.
You can be in a state of aspiration, of willing,
which calls something down, -
exactly the will to open oneself and receive -
and at the same time be in that state of complete inner stillness
which allows full interpenetration,
for it is in this immobility that one can be penetrated,
that one becomes permeable by the Force.
The two can be simultaneous without the one disturbing the other,
or can alternate so closely that they can hardly be distinguished.
When one has succeeds in having the two together,
one can have them constantly, whatever one may be doing.
