Small Vital Entities and Their Action in Human Life: Sri Aurobindo Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, The Hidden Forces of Life, Ch. 5 Occult Forces, pp. 113-114 ==================================================================================== The Mother relates two stories here about interactions she personally had with some small entities.

Even the worst of men have a spiritual element hiddenly present, and the so-called vicious movements which we observe in humanity in many a circle may sometimes confound us into a doubt as to whether the Spirit, which is held to be Omnipresent, can be the motive force behind these perpetrations. Yes, is the answer. Even
