Sri Aurobindo

 THE AFFIRMATION of a divine life upon earth and an

immortal sense in mortal existence can have no base unless we recognise not only eternal Spirit as the inhabitant
of this bodily mansion, the wearer of this mutable robe, but
accept Matter of which it is made, as a fit and noble material
out of which He weaves constantly His garbs, builds recurrently
the unending series of His mansions
