Page 10 - Sri Aurobindo on Equality

SAMATĀ & TITIKṢĀ

Sri Aurobindo, CWSA, 29: 135

Through an equality gained by strong mental control

[the worldly man is able to bear all kinds of difficulty]—

but that is not samatā, it is titikṣā, the power to bear

which is only a first step or a first element of samatā.
