You know the story of Durga, don’t
you? Durga who every year has to
destroy her asura; and always she is
compelled to begin again. It goes on
in this way till the end of the reign
allotted to the titans. When they will
be banished from this world, it will
not be thus any longer. But till then,
that is as long as they are useful...for
intensifying the aspiration, clarifying
the consciousness, for putting to the
test the sincerity of people, they will
be there. The day the test will not be
needed, the day the sincerity will be
pure and self-existent they will
disappear. Then that day, Durga will
no longer need to begin her battle
over again every year.
The Mother, CWM, 5: 96-97
