Always to speak as little as possible and to act only when it is necessary

Horoscopes have no importance for those who take up yoga.(The Mother)
Question: Several among us have passed or are passing through a period of mental disequilibrium and incoherence. What attitude should we take towards those who are in this state? What should we do and not do to avoid passing through these crises?
The Mother: Calm, peace, tranquillity always, and always to speak as little as possible and to act only when it is necessary. To avoid unconsciousness as much as possible.
Question: What is the right way of meeting ones' recurring difficulties?
Sri Aurobindo: Equality, rejection, calling on the Mother's force.
Sri Aurobindo August 1, 1933 ("On The Mother", SABCL vol. 25, page 341)
