=What is Aspiration?=
==Aspiration in Relation to Other Divine Qualities==
 
===Aspiration and Peace===
In addition to aspiration let there also be calm and peace and joy in the mind and heart, and a confidence that all will be done in its due time. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/29/aspiration#p31</ref>
 
===Aspiration and Perfection===
In works, aspiration towards Perfection is true spirituality. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/14/progress-and-perfection-in-work#p45</ref>
 
===Aspiration and Sincerity===
Also total sincerity is needed for the aspiration to be fulfilled. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/29/the-newness-of-the-integral-yoga#p10</ref>
Sincerity means that one is really in earnest in his aspiration and refuses all other will or impulse except the Divine’s. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/29/sincerity#p5</ref>
 
==How is Aspiration Different from Desire?==
 
Aspiration is not mixed with any interested and egoistic calculation. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/14/aspiration#p2</ref>
 
In aspiration there is an unselfish flame which is not present in desire. True aspiration does not come from the head; even when it is formulated by a thought, it springs up like a flame from the heart. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/22-february-1951#p19,p20</ref>
==Aspiration in the Different Parts of Being?==
Thus Every gleam of aspiration is always the expression of a psychic influence. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/1-march-1951#p27</ref>

=Why is Aspiration Important?=
You will become the man you want to be and the higher your ideal and your aspiration, the higher will be your realisation, but you must keep a firm resolution and never forget your true aim in life. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/12/students#p3</ref>
=How To to Aspire?=
'''Prerequisite For Aspiration'''
Try to be less and less selfish, but not in the sense of becoming nice to other people or forgetting yourself, not that: have less and less the feeling that you are a person, a separate entity, something existing in itself, isolated from the rest. Then that aspiration, that need for the light is experienced. But that moment should be absolutely sincere and as integral as possible <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/05/20-may-1953#p23,p26</ref>
