The Individual and the Collectivity

Many studies have been done, and real-life examples have shown the power of a body of people focused on a particular feeling, thought or action. Mob psychology shows that individuals who otherwise might be seen as quiet and peaceful can be riled up into paroxysms of anger when part of an angry crowd. It is this type of psychology that turnsordinary people into savage beasts when they are demagogued and harangued to stoke the force of anger.

The Subconscious Basis of Our Individual Being, Part 2

As if the genetic, prenatal and neonatal influence, and the habits and customs of the society into which one is born is not sufficient burden to have to deal with as it rises up from the subconscient levels of our being, we also have to address the current influences provided through peer pressure, interactions with others on a daily basis and the mental and vital force exerted by those with whom we come into contact. Many people have come to appreciate that being in the presence of certain individuals is draining on their energy.

Two Ways to Meet the Resistance of the Nature to the Divine Force: the Way of the Self and the Way of the Psychic

When we reflect on the difficulty of changing basic human nature, and overcoming the general habits and patterns of universal nature expressing itself in us, we may easily recognise that none of the characteristic powers of mind, life or body will be sufficient to accomplish real and lasting change. The question arises as to whether real change can be effected.

Universe is governed by the law of karma but how can one get a reflection of past life accumulated karmas? Is their any mechanism for the same?

Everything that you can see and experience through your five senses in this life is all a reflection of your past-life accumulated karma. Eg. your parents, your grand-parents, the house you live in, your job, your degree, your qualification, everything reflects your past-life accumulated karma; for they are the “effects” of your past-life “causes” (karmas). The seeds of new karma are sown based on your ‘inner intention’ at the time of experiencing the effects of o

We Come to This Life to Spread Love

You ask what’s your purpose… I say… you already know your purpose. Consider this: 1 - Science has proven that consciousness does not dissipate but goes on forever. 2 - Science has proven at the University of Virginia with thousands of case studies that we live multiple lives. 3 - Every single spiritual sect talks about the fact that we go on forever… that we do not end. 4 - Thousands who have had near death experiences tell us that we go on forever.

Why do people prefer material riches over spiritual wealth?

The reason why people prefer material riches over spiritual wealth is because they believe that happiness lies there.rnWhen one sees and reads through numerous social media platforms on how those with materialistic riches are living and enjoying their wealthy lifestyle, one starts to dream of pursuing a similar living style. However, only if one were to investigate whether happiness really lies in the materialistic riches, one will find that the reality is far from the truth;

“Young Blood Good for Older People”

Studies with mice show that receiving a transfusion of young blood helps restore many aspects of the body and brain. Perhaps the old saying “We need some new blood” is really true. Studies with mice at the University of Califo ia Berkeley and Stanford University have found that taking old mice and giving them young blood helps revive and support better liver function. Old mice given young blood seemed to help the liver to regenerate from fibrosis and fatty liver disease. And because our liver is our first line of defense having a healthy liver is very important.

Finding a Solution that Provides Peace Without Sacrificing Progress in the Universal Manifestation

If the drive towards progress is fueled by dissatisfaction and anxiety felt by the individual, we are left with the conce that achieving peace must come at the cost of giving up the active life and the development of consciousness in the world. We either have to sink back to the level of the animal who does not worry about the past or the future, and who lives in a relatively static consciousness, or find a way to escape the world, through renunciation and entering into a form of trance state based in the highest, but not attempting to modify or update the outer consciousness.

Sparkling wine like champagne

All champagne is sparkling wine, but not all sparkling wine is champagne. Champagne can be used as a generic term for sparkling wine, the bubbles in sparkling wine are products of carbon dioxide which is observed when fermentation occurs under pressure therefore most sparkling wines involve a secondary fermentation, which is induced when sugar and yeast are added to a still base wine. Yeast consumes the sugar in the grapes and converts it into ethanol and heat. Different vari

The Choice Before the Practitioner of the Integral Yoga

The pressure of both the habitual patterns established by the physical body, the vital life energy and the mental development, together with the pressure of society and the impact of past education, creates an enormous impediment to the radical change in standpoint necessitated for the manifestation of the supramental force and the transformation of the nature. Much of this is essentially unconscious or subconscious, making it even more difficult to identify and root it out, in order to be prepared for an entirely different working of consciousness in the practitioner.

Vital Disturbances Arise from Universal Nature and Bring Forth Habitual Responses

In The Life Divine, Sri Aurobindo explores the boundaries of the Ignorance and a framework for attaining knowledge. He describes at some length, the ‘circumconscient’ influence on what we believe are our own internal actions and reactions. We view ourselves through the ego-consciousness and believe we are different and separate from the universal manifestation. Yet, we are formed by, and respond according to, the forces active in the wider creation. The ego represents a nexus or standpoint, but it does not originate the energies that are active.

Applying the “Hundredth Monkey” Phenomenon

“The liberation of the individual soul is therefore the keynote of the definite divine action; it is the primary divine necessity and the pivot on which all else turns.” This is the first step but what must also be recognized is that as individuals here and there achieve new states of consciousness and begin to integrate it into their life and action, it also extends itself horizontally and begins to replicate itself. Every liberated soul becomes a focus point for a radiant action that leads to similar liberation.

Conquering Difficulties With a Positive Mind-Set

He came across a yogi undertaking strenuous discipline, tapasya, This yogi inquired how much longer he would need to achieve enlightenment. Narad replied “4 more lifetimes”. The yogi became despondent and complained that after so much effort, still 4 more lifetimes would be required.

How can one overcome the feeling being left alone?

Do you know when is one really said to be alone?...rnWhen one thinks only about one’s own self! rnWhen we think only about our self, when we live only for our self, we cannot see anyone else other than our own self. And therefore, no matter how many people are along with us, but we are actually alone only. On the other hand, when we think about others, when we think for others, it doesn’t matter even if not a single person is seen to be standing with us; for we are still

What is Moksha?rnMoksha means absolute freedom! If someone scolds or abuses you, would you feel some suffering? That’s called bondage. When someone borrows some money from us and later doesn’t return it to us, we feel miserable, isn’t it? That again is bondage. If some death, accident or illness occurs at home, or some theft, burglary or insult happens to us - whatever in the world causes us suffering, they are all worldly bondages. rnAnd without changing any external c

“A Story of Fear of Death and Faith”

Once there was a great storm and there was a large cruise liner that was crossing the Atlantic ocean.

“When is Enough — Enough”

From the time we are able to walk to the time we die we spend most of our life acquiring money. We work for our parents when we are young, we get a job when we are in our teens, and work the rest of our life accumulating money. It’s interesting that in Italy they say, “We work to live, and in the US they live to work”. Is this the best use of our time? Or are we losing ourselves in the hustle and bustle of the material world.

Developing and Integrating Calm and Peace in the Being

If we remain constantly in active motion and react to all the sense impressions and pressures that impinge upon us from the outer world, it is difficult to achieve a status of calm or peace. One of the values of sitting regularly for a time of quiet reflection, meditation or concentration is just the ability to step back away from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives and cultivate an atmosphere of serenity around us. Once this atmosphere is well-established, it can automatically aid us as we take up the daily life and meet our daily challenges and provocations.

Sleep and the Practice of Integral Yoga

Religious devotees and spiritual aspirants throughout the world have tried to experience a divine revelation through various extreme practices that put the body under severe stress. One of these practices has been extreme fasting, and another, the attempt to overcome the power of sleep and carry out long vigils and prayers ove ight. There is no doubt that in extremis the consciousness can shift out of the normal frame and may open to experiences that are not part of the normal daily outward-facing consciousness.

Understanding Human Nature

At some point in life, virtually every individual has an experience which is extremely disappointing and painful, due to a perceived betrayal or undue negative reaction from another person. A great part of human interaction is driven by reactions of jealousy, envy, lust, greed, fear, anger or, potentially, a cowardly reaction that shifts responsibility and blame onto an innocent individual to escape the consequences. Those who are more sensitive feel deeply hurt or wounded by these interactions.

How to Transform One’s Nature By Overcoming Mental and Vital Bias
