Peace is the very basis of all the siddhi in the yoga... - Sri Aurobindo

The Mother
यथा नटः सुविहितं रूपमास्थाय नृत्यति ।
तथैव सर्वभूतेषु गम्भीरश्चाव्ययः स्थितः ॥

 

"Just as an actor dances after putting on a well-prepared costume, so does the Eternal and Deep One (the Divine) reside within all beings, playing many roles."

- Mahābhārata (Sāntiparva)
