When we see this beautiful world around us, we often wonder, âWho must have created this world?â We are told âGod created this worldâ. If God is really a creator, just imaginernâ¢How would He have created the world? Would He have toiled like a potter to create one thing after another? rnâ¢And would God be partial? Because He makes one person poor and the other filthy rich in His world.rnâ¢If God is infinite bliss, then why did He fill this world with worries and mi
Sri Aurobindo describes the first step to move from a mental seeking to a living spiritual experience as “the practice of concentration of your consciousness within yourself.” We ask what this means exactly. Some observation of our mental state discloses what we normally consider to be concentration. We focus on solving some issue or problem in our lives, or we focus on some experience, some opportunity, some relationship, some event. In each case, we turn our concentration outwards towards the exte al world and attach our focus to those exte al objects.

As the seeker begins to shift the consciousness inward, he becomes aware of forces, powers, and realms that are the native venues for our physical, vital and mental energies and activities, as well as existing in and by their own form of reality and under rules that do not necessarily match up with those we believe pertain in our exte al world. The opening to these realms can be extremely disorienting as the individual does not know what they are, what they intend, nor how, indeed, they act.
Happiness, which, once it comes, is not followed by misery again, is called real happiness. rnThe happiness obtained from materialism is very temporary. Also, when things go above normal, material happiness feels like misery. Eg. eating mangoes makes you happy. But if your friend insists you eat 200 mangoes in one go, would you get happiness? No, youâd feel miserable! We all have enjoyed a lot of material happiness in countless of our past lives. We got temporary satisfacti

There are phenomena that are inexplicable under our normal understanding of life and death. The body dissolves, certainly, and the vital being and mental disperse soon thereafter and return into their native planes. Yet we find that occasionally it seems like a particular understanding or capacity has been continued as if from an earlier life, and we have to explore how this may occur.
Yes, they can.rnWhen others fail to think, say or act in line with what we expect of them, when people do not follow the expected rules, or when one does not conform to the expected ideas in our mind, we often feel slighted or disappointed. We have a lot of expectations from our own self too. And when we are unable to meet those expectations, it causes us emotional distress such as anxiety, stress, frustration, self-judgment, depression. As big our attachment is, that big is
In every living being, there is the element of Soul (Aatma, the real Self), which by nature, is the same for all. However, physically, each is a separate Soul. Gnanis (the Enlightened Ones) beholds the complete Vision of the whole and complete, independent Absolute Soul (Parmatma) that resides in each and every being. rnSo come, letâs understand the facts by seeing through their vision.... Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan, an Enlightened being, explains: rnBy nature every Soul is s
Yes, karma definitely exists! And each one of us continues to experience its presence in every moment of our life. Whatever we are experiencing in our life today is nothing but the result of our past life karma. Someday, if the soup served to us happens to have extra salt in it, that too is because of our past karma; and if weâve got some really delicious dishes to relish, that too is because of karma only. Even a pickpocket is merely an instrument in the unfolding of our k
The importance of the rule of the 3 Gunas, the qualities of Nature, cannot be over-emphasized. Each of these qualities has both its positive aspects and its downsides, and they are functional in all life. They are continually in fluctuation and intermix with one another to create the events and circumstances that play out in our lives. This remains true even for those who take up the spiritual life. The focus, quality and process of the spiritual practice are all conditioned by the Gunas and their action.

Stress is a feeling of an emotional or physical tensionrnToday, so many people in this world suffer from high levels of stress. It is said, âStress is our body's reaction to a particular challenge or demand. It can come from any event or thought that makes us feel frustrated, angry or nervous.â Is there a connection between stress-management and Spirituality?rnBoth stress-management and spirituality work in the direction of resolving stress. However, spirituality is far b
It turns out that dogs can be trained to identify an imminent diabetic reaction in an individual, or to determine the presence of cancer. If we reflect on the implications of this for a moment, it becomes clear that there are indications that can be picked up by the dog’s senses, even if most (or even all) human beings are unaware of these things. It could be a frequency or vibration, it could be a scent that emanates, or some other subtle sensory stimuli perceptible to the dog.
Many people may understand the white wine made up of white grapes. But it can be either red or black grapes. The color can be straw-yellow, yellow-green, or yellow-gold it depends on the style of wine. It is produced by the alcoholic fermentation of the non-colored pulp of grapes. It is generally to extract aroma compounds. The variety of white wine comes from a large number of varieties, methods and winemaking, and ratios of residual sugar. White wine is mainly for white gra
We tend to measure success or failure in terms of specific results we see in our relatively short, individual lifetime, based on our preconceived or societally sanctioned ideas about what constitutes success or failure. When it comes to progress in spiritual development, however, this is not necessarily either the correct judgment term (time frame within which something can be evaluated), nor the correct criteria for deciding what constitutes success.
Self-Realization means to realize really âwho am I?â rnReally, âI am a Pure Soul.â But all along, I have believed that, âI am Claudet (you may insert your own name here)â And from this wrong belief, various other wrong beliefs have emerged. However, one day, as I happen to meet Gnani in person, and from Him I seek Self-Realization, with His divine grace, He changes my wrong belief (mithya darshan) to right belief (samyak darshan). And thus I attain Self-Realizatio
In the Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna poses the question to Sri Krishna as to how to identify the realised soul, asking how does he act, how does he speak, etc. Sri Krishna responds that it is not through outer action that one can identify the liberated individual, as this is something that can only be understood from the inner state of consciousness of that individual.
People tend to underestimate the risks and difficulties attendant on the practice of yoga, with a focus on the growth of consciousness and transformation of human nature.
As each individual tries to understand his life and purpose, he begins a process of observation, review, and experimentation. At this stage, many seekers have little clue about the path that is best suited for them, and they may try out different approaches. Once a path has been identified, they believe in many cases this is the “best” path and they begin to recommend it to others. It is, however, frequently the case, that what suits one individual will not suit the next one.
Sri Aurobindo starts the review of the Knowledge and the Ignorance by reminding us of the sevenfold principles of existence: “In our scrutiny of the seven principles of existence it was found that they are one in their essential and fundamental reality: for if even the matter of the most material universe is nothing but a status of being of Spirit made an object of sense, evisaged by the Spirit’s own consciousness as the stuff of its forms, much more must the life-force that constitutes itself into forms of Matter, and the mind-consciousness that throws itself out as Life, and the Supermind th
Whatever the predominant aspect of the individual nature, the spiritual aspiration seizes upon that as the leading power to carry the sadhana forward. Nevertheless, at some point, it is important to recognize both the value and the necessity of the other aspects for what is after all an integral yoga, with a goal of spiritual realisation and the transformation of human nature based on that realisation. This is different than past yogic practices that focused primarily on liberation and did not conce themselves with the exte al life at all.

Rioja Guide: The Most Popular winernLearn about the Spanish wines defined by their fruit-forward taste and aging process in the American Oak Cox. In short this is a Spanish wine; you canât talk about Spanish without rioja. Wine often embodies the culture of the place where it was made. Like Spainâs long cysts and rich flavors, Rioja wines are also vibrant and elegant. Aged in oak barrels for different periods, Riojaâs signature notes include vanilla and caramel flavors
Sincerity is not as simple as believing in and meaning what we say to others. This is what we ordinarily consider to be sincerity. Sri Aurobindo and the Mother have a much more far-reaching idea of sincerity relating to the practice of yoga in the furtherance of spiritual growth. Sincerity represents the coherence of the entire being around the central focus of the spiritual practice, such that our thoughts, emotions, vital impulses and physical responses all adhere to and support this focus.
A yogic practice focus on transformation of human nature must necessarily address issues differently than one that has ‘liberation’ as its sole goal. This brings in the need for an understanding of the human instrument, the various elements of the being, the development of those elements through time, and the manner in which past stages form a basis for the current stage, with both its capacities and its limitations.
The human mind has difficulty imagining the possibility of an entirely new direction for evolutionary development, and tends to try to “read” the future by extrapolation from the present and the past. Thus, we see Nietzsche describing the “superman” as someone who has a higher mental functioning and vital force of effectuation, who then has the “right” and the “power” to disregard the strictures of the society’s structure because he has gone “beyond” them.
Beer is one of the oldest alcoholic drinks in the world, and a popular drink after water and tea. It is made with water, barley, and types of yeasts.

So Simple We Have Forgotten About Them Right now we have more scientific research showing that what was written in all the spiritual texts thousands of years ago can create great health. Take for Instance: Think Good Thoughts - Science has now proven that when we think good thoughts we change our brain chemistry to create more serotonin and dopamine and thus we have a good mood and we strength our prefrontal cortex of the brain. But not only that, other hormones and body chemistry move throughout the body uplifting our immune system and strengthening the body or just the opposite.r
The ego-personality, particularly the vital ego, feeds upon feelings of being special, having new and exciting experiences that are not part of the ordinary exte al consciousness. Spiritual seekers are allured by tales of meeting spiritual beings on subtle planes, traveling without the physical body through astral planes, obtaining guidance from masters who speak to one in one’s own head, or being shown visions that make the seeker believe he is specially chosen for particular lines of action or leadership.
Sri Aurobindo concludes that once we have defined the seven forms of Ignorance, our aim and goal in our human lives must be to successively overcome the Ignorance through the development of the sevenfold forms of knowledge. Each aspect of the knowledge we develop addresses one of the already defined seven forms of the Ignorance.
Until Self-Realization, one does not have the understanding of the Self i.e. âWho am I?â rnHe knows he exists (astitva) but he does not have the awareness of who he is (vastutva). If he were to attain the awareness of who he really is even for a second, he can reach completion i.e. liberation (purnatva). The Self is natural, the path to acquire the knowledge of Self is straightforward and easy, but a Gnani Purush (the Enlightened One) is needed to give the knowledge of th

One of the things that spiritual seekers experience is that regardless of how strong the central aspiration of the soul happens to be within them, they experience fluctuations based on the various parts of the exte al nature coming to the front and asserting their own priorities.
In the ancient text of India, it is said that a human birth is essential for progress, and that even the Gods, if they desire to attain some new development, need to take birth in a human form. It is clear that generally the physical body, the vital nature and the mental development dissolve sequentially upon the death and dissolution of the body. It becomes obvious therefore that the development, the evolutionary progression that takes place, is not based in the body-life-mind complex or the ego-personality that attaches to them in any particular lifetime.
The mind can be a powerful tool for spiritual growth, or it can become an obstacle under certain circumstances. Many devotees take the position that aspiration, devotion, surrender to the Divine is the only way forward. For those individuals that may indeed be true. Not everyone is capable of the kind of single focused love and surrender required to tread the path of devotion, where the individuality is consumed in the love for and surrender to the Divine.
As long as an individual is locked within a framework of understanding, he is unable to truly recognise or exceed the limits of that framework. The ego-consciousness is such a frame of awareness. It creates the sense of a separate individual, apart and having his own autonomy in contra-distinction to the rest of the creation. It creates a sense of “self” and “other” that drives the individual to see things in a fragmented manner.

Ambalal Muljibhai Patel, who later became a Gnani Purush (the Enlightened One), sharing his experience of school days, says, âIn my maths class, the teacher had asked the students to find the smallest indivisible number, which is common to all other numbers (LCM = lowest common multiple). From this search, I immediately discovered God. We are all ânumbersâ and God (Atma) is within each one of us in an indivisible form.â So, yes! Atma is indeed the smallest indivisible

As long as the mental consciousness remains insulated within its own range of awareness, it believes it has a power of knowledge and action that can be made practically infallible. Even when its shortcomings are made patently obvious, it believes that an improvement in its processes, or the input of new facts available to it now or in the future, will lead to the desired result. It thus believes itself to be self-sufficient and thus, is self-satisfied. It has not cause to look outside of its own functionality to resolve any pending conce s.
In our normal human lives, we live in an exte ally focused standpoint and we create a distinction between ‘objective reality’ and ‘subjective reality’. Because we are so dependent on the body-life-mind complex and its relation to the outer world, we tend to assign a greater truth and reality to the exte al world. Western science has made the ability to measure, and reproduce results in the exte al world as the touchstone of ‘what is real’. Subjective experiences, subjective views are treated as something less real and thereby denigrated in our understanding.
