317 – Plan not with the intellect, but let thy divine sight arrange thy plans for thee. When a means comes to thee as the thing to be done, make that thy aim; as for the end, it is, in the world, accomplishing itself and, in thy soul, already accomplished.
318 – Men see events as unaccomplished, to be striven for and effected. This is false seeing; events are not effected, they develop. The event is Brahman, already accomplished from of old, it is now manifesting.
One could say it in this way: everything exists from all eternity, and we become conscious of it progressively in what we call the material world.
This way of seeing and speaking is a complete reversal of the ordinary human consciousness.
