Page 11 - Ideal of Progress for Humanity

Always it is the individual who progresses and

compels the rest to progress; the instinct of

the collectivity is to stand still in its

established order.

Progress, growth, realisation of wider being

give his greatest sense of happiness to the

individual; status, secure ease to the

collectivity. And so it must be as long as the

latter is more a physical and economic entity

than a self-conscious collective soul.

-Sri Aurobindo, CWSA, 25: 302
