Chapter 14The Power of Expression and Yoga · Expression and Language

The Knowledge from above or whatever comes down can express itself in any language.

* When the knowledge comes strongly from above, it very often brings its own language and the defects of the instrument are overcome. There are people who knew very little but when the knowledge began to flow they wrote wonderfully — when it was not flowing, their language became incorrect and ordinary.

* If you speak of the expression, the deeper things in these expe-riences cannot be expressed — except by a great spiritual poet and even then only imperfectly — they can only be realised and remembered.

* What is expressed is always only a part of what is behind — which remains unexpressed and in the language of the manifestation inexpressible.
