Subjectively we tend to believe that we make our own decisions and that we are exercising ‘free will’. What we do not generally do is recognise that there is an entire preceding set of ’causes’ which lead us to the present moment and the very type of choices we make. We may be extremely ‘predictable’ in the regularity of our decision process, or we may be highly unconventional and tend to take the ‘road less travelled’.
When an individual is confronted with a possible, or likely, case of vampirism, several questions arise. The first is how the individual can be safe from the negative effects of such activity impacting them or their family, friends or associates directly; the second is the possibility and likelihood of being able to transform or change them; in other words, ‘defense’ and ‘offense’, if you will.

In part 1 we provided an overview of the existential crisis facing the oceans, and by extension, the survival and the quality of life of humanity and other life on the planet due to the challenges to which the oceans are being subjected. That overview makes it clear that the oceans are integrated closely with events, not just in the oceans themselves, but on the land and in the air. Climate change, pollution,r
When a seeker awakens to the deformations of the body-life-mind complex, the distorted feelings, the misdirected emotions, the incomplete and misguided thoughts, the entire complex focused on and rooted in the idea of the aggrandisement of the ego-personality at the expense of everything else, he can easily become depressed with the magnitude of the work to be done, the difficulty of implementing the needed changes, the inter-relationship between the different parts of the being, all of which impact one another and increase the complexity of the actions required to accomplish those changes.r
There is the aspiration and dedication that the seeker recognises and treats as his true identity. Then there are all the thoughts, motives and actions that undermine or contradict in some manner that aspiration and dedication. Many people fail to recognise that this contradiction exists, as they have a built in mechanism in the mind and the vital to find excuses or to justify it. The vital is especially powerful in its ability to influence the mind and the mind is able to create justifications based on the vital self-interest that is pressuring it.
When we see any individual stopping to reflect, choose his line of action and make a specific, conscious determination of how to respond, we consider this action to be unnatural, stilted, and we imply that it is somehow subject to some kind of ulterior motive, and thus, tend to distrust it. Based on this general conception, we have a bias in favor of vital spontaneity, which we believe more perfectly expresses the true feelings of the individual than some kind of planned response.
Sri Aurobindo cites the Vedic Rishi of Mandala X, Canto 129, verses 1-5 at the beginning of Chapter 25 of The Life Divine, titled The Knot of Matter: “Then existence was not nor non-existence, the mid-world was not nor the Ether nor what is beyond. What covered all? where was it? in whose refuge? what was that ocean dense and deep? Death was not nor immortality nor the knowledge of day and night. That One lived without breath by his self-law, there was nothing else nor aught beyond it. In the beginning Darkness was hidden by darkness, all this was an ocean of inconscience.
If worries do not arise, if samadhi (a blissful state) prevails even amidst of mental, physical and emotional afflictions (aadhi-vyadhi-upadhi), then you can tell that spiritually speaking, you are on a right path in life. Any big talks or actions in the absence of such a state is like conjuring castles in the sky! Thereâs an interesting story to illustrate this factâ¦rnOne day, Sahajanand Swami met a King in the province of Kathiawad. The King told Sahajanand Swami that a
Samskara means the mental habit of reactionrnOwing to ignorance of the Self (really who am I), moment to moment, we blindly react to every situation in life by way of attachment and hatred. This habit of reaction is called samskaras. These samskaras are âkarmasâ and they are a shape of our future. The Enlightened One explains:rnDue to ignorance, ego comes into being. From ego, intellect arises. And intellect gives rise to attachment and hatred, which cause the karma to ge
We grow and develop our physical body and its capabilities. We may undertake various training regimens and refine the body’s ability to perceive, and to respond. Yet the body dies and that training is left behind with the dissolution of the body. We can see an effect within the larger framework of society as others notice and implement similar actions, so there is clearly a species-level benefit, but for the individual, the development of the body ends with its deterioration and death.

In various parts of the world, homes and buildings have a clear ‘identity’, through shape, color, size, layout of the rooms, functionality, and location. In other places we see vast tracts of virtually identical houses or apartments in rows, with the same size, shape, color and layout. Someone trying to locate a house or apartment in such a location can easily be confused as to which one they are trying to find, and, except for the identifying numerical address, it can be a daunting affair.
Humanity, for the most part, continues to believe that the material world occupies a primary place in the creation of the universe, and that somehow, Matter is able to create the encoding and the complex systems that come along with that encoding out of some random mixture of elements.
It is convenient, and perhaps comforting, to simply deny reality to experiences that people have, rather than to grapple with the implications of those experiences. We stick convenient labels on certain phenomena and believe by doing so, we have understood and defined those phenomena. Delusion, hallucination, mental illness, drug-induced visual or auditory confusion, traumatic triggering of complexes, physical brain damage, confused dream interpretation, PTSD, breakdown of body chemistry in near-death events, — there are countless ways we discount experiences that people have.
We are generally so embedded in the exte al surface consciousness and the ego-personality that we naturally believe that represents ‘who we are’. This focus on the exte al being, however, is subject to being driven by impulsions, desires, impressions and various forces that are at work to push or pull us in various directions. We are generally not even aware that these forces are acting upon us, and thus, believe that we are self-determining beings who are in control of our lives, our thoughts, our actions and reactions.

A large number of responses and reactions are embedded in the subconscious and unconscious parts of our nature. Some of these arise as a result of atavistic reactions that precede the human stage of evolution and have been carried forward, while others are embedded as a result of prenatal and early childhood experiences, and yet others get embedded through various life-experiences, particularly traumas, that we undergo.
Chance, coincidence, free will, astrological influences, fate, destiny, karma, chain of causality, predestination, determinism, correlation, causality, foreknowledge, past life influences, fortune telling, divination, omens, predestination, oracles, Divine Plan — these terms all come up when we reflect upon how our lives develop over time. From the standpoint of our ego-personality, we believe that we are somehow masters of our own fate, we are ‘in charge’, ‘self-made’, acting with ‘free will’. A deeper review yields other considerations.

Whether one calls it the ‘law of Karma”, ‘dependent origination, or ’cause and effect’, the operation of karma essentially states that each action will create an effect which thereby creates a line of development that impacts the individuals who participate in the situation as it develops. While Karma obviously has an effect on our moral nature, it is not primarily a moral law, but a law of vibration and energy. All thought, all feelings, all emotions, all actions are in essence energetic vibrational patterns.

To explore the hidden forces, both in our own lives, and in the larger framework of the universal manifestation and the evolution of consciousness over time, a new way of ‘knowing’ needs to be developed, one that can experience and interact with these hidden forces on a more direct and aware manner. We can see the direct responsiveness of the vital nature as it experiences life with what we call ‘instinct’ or ‘habit’.
Why do we not immediately recognise the existence and centrality of the soul? We tend to set our standpoint in the exte al consciousness which is directed outwards, and which is constantly receiving sense impressions and pressures impinging on our body-life-mind complex. The sense organs, nervous system and brain are wired to respond to impressions from these exte al forces and are not either directed toward nor tuned to perceive the subtle energetic action of the inner being, and the soul, the inmost being.

So how did he react to those circumstances? He reveals:rnâWith Gnan (right knowledge), inside there remains Samadhi (bliss), and outs
The Vedic Rishis described a change in conscious awareness as representing satyam, rtam, brihat, the truth, the right, the vast. It is difficult for most people living in the modern world to gain a conception of the vastness of existence. We may know intellectually that the universe is large, we may know that the world, from our individual perspective is large, but the sense of infinity, the sense of unending wideness is missing as we remain circumscribed by the limits of our daily life and the frenetic pace of interaction that occurs within that life.
When we reflect on the individuation process for which the ego-consciousness is the instrument of Nature, we oftentimes go to the extreme of believing that we are totally separate, independent and free of outside influence. We believe that our individuality is a wall of separation that keeps us safe and free. This viewpoint however is a mistaken one.
There are several points worth considering with respect to utilizing imagination and some of the unanticipated issues that are based primarily in the lag between formulation and accomplishment of the imagined form. Visualization and use of the imagination can act to turn a vague idea or sense into something that can realize itself in action. Every thought form moves out into the world and tries to effectuate itself. If it is weak and transient, the impact may be slight.
There is an ‘innocence’ of the instinctive vital nature. It acts according to its impulses, habits, instincts, without interference of any mental considerations, whether termed self-dealing, planning, calculation, conscience or ethical and moral constraints. The famous example is that the tiger kills its prey out of its instinctive need to satisfy its hunger and its nature as a predatory animal. It does not kill for ‘fun’ or for ‘recognition’ or for some sense of superiority, all of which are motives that arise within the context of human action. The child shares this innocence as it does not
We generally fail to recognise how much we tend to take on the coloration of the thoughts and feelings of those around us. Just as a chameleon will adapt its body color to blend into its physical environment, we tend to adapt our ideas, opinions, and feelings to match up with those with whom we associate. Even if we tend to take issue with certain things, we frequently remain quiet in the presence of those who would disagree with us, while becoming vocally active in the presence of those who would agree.

In a chapter titled ‘Knowledge by Identity and Separative Knowledge’ in The Life Divine, Sri Aurobindo describes true knowledge as coming through identity, where the knower and the object of knowledge are one and unified. This occurs through the direct relation of the soul with the Divine in a state of oneness.
As long as an individual lives ‘aimlessly’, without recognising a higher purpose in life, there is no way to appreciate and measure the actions of the exte al nature with respect to any variance from that aim or purpose. The aim or purpose comes with the identification with the soul, the psychic being, which is connected to the divine spiritual being that is One and which is manifesting in the universal creation through all the individual points of reference that we consider to be individual beings.
We generally live, most of the time, within a framework of the ego-consciousness. We look at and experience our lives from this standpoint, and it places limitations on our understanding and our response to circumstances. Those who are called to yoga and spiritual development practices in general have traditionally focused on one or the other of two primary realisations. On the one side, there is the attempt to shift the standpoint from the ego-consciousness to the divine standpoint, through realisation of the Self which is a portion of the Divine.
The normal mental process begins relatively simply. We hear something and accept it in our minds, and eventually we repeat the thought to others and thus, a thought-form moves through the mental atmosphere and touches many minds. Teilhard de Chardin referred to the mental force permeating the world as a noosphere, and like the atmosphere, it girdles the earth and carries mental energies as forces which act upon those who are able to receive these thought forms.
Sri Aurobindo makes an important point. Various aspects of reports about subtle senses and supraphysical realities as they impact our exte al world, have been documented, and in some cases, extensively studied and verified. Once we accept the fact that there is a real and solid basis for these experiences that we can validate, it provides at least circumstantial support to the idea that, by extension, those experiences outside our range of perception also have a similar validity. This is not to say that every report and every experience is absolutely true and correct in every detail.

The individual drops of water that make up the ocean do not determine the movement or action of the ocean. They are carried along and partake of the larger forces that act upon and through the ocean. The are a small pinpoint ‘nexus’ of the ocean action but not the motive or driving force. Similarly, human individuals are not the motive or driving force of action, but are more the ‘nexus’ of action of larger universal forces that manifest themselves through all of the individual body-life-mind complex individuals that together make up our human race.
As long as we live within a certain frame of understanding, we cannot truly understand who or what we are, or why we do what we do, as we are bound by the limitations of that frame. Thus, as we are born in a particular culture, or a particular society, or a particular religious persuasion, or social setting, we tend to take on the habits, predilections, customs, and traits that pertain within that frame.
Individuals become famous as great philanthropists. Some pledge their wealth to a great cause, such as solving the climate crisis, others undertake to build hospitals or feed large numbers of people. These individuals are looked up to and used as examples of selfless individuals. Yet, a deeper examination generally finds that in most cases there is a vital motivation that prods the individual into this line of action and takes advantage of it for some form of vital fulfillment or satisfaction.
Contagion is the transmission of something, whether physical, vital or mental energy/vibration, from one entity or being to another. On the physical plane, contagion is usually understood to be transmitted through the use of a physical medium, such as a ‘germ’, whether we call it a bacteria, or a virus, an amoeba or a spore. Whatever means of transmission occurs on the physical plan, the action communicates the power to develop a vibrational pattern in the target similar to that active in the original host. Thus, we see diseases take hold of individuals as a result of such transmissions.
Sri Aurobindo has indicated that the evolution of consciousness is carried out by the gradual and mostly unconscious action of the divine intention withi Nature. At the stage of the human being, however, it becomes possible for the individual to “speed up” the slow action of Nature through focus and participation through the practice of conscious Yoga.
