How you define spirituality for yourself has a big impact on your experience and also your relationship to this intangible dimension of life that we all long to know more intimately.

Each and every one of us have an aspect of ourselves that is invisible but still very real. In fact this invisible part of ourselves is the very essence of our lives and spiri

Traditional yogic disciplines advise the seeker to concentrate between the eyebrows, chanting OM and focusing on the Divine Will. Sri Aurobindo notes this practice, and develops it to provide access to the higher ranges of consciousness above the mental level. The Isha Upanishad notes that there is a “lid” that is brilliant and golden in color that prevents the seeker from seeing the Truth of existence. That lid is the border between the mental and the higher planes.

In his book The Mother, Sri Aurobindo outlines the personal effort to be made by the seeker of the Divine. This consists of the movements of aspiration, rejection and surrender. Aspiration means the inner focus and dedication to achieving the divine consciousness and living in that consciousness. Rejection means to root out the thoughts, feelings, emotions, reactions, habits, cravings and physical weaknesses that distract the individual from the focus needed, and which are based in the ego-consciousness rather than in the divine standpoint.

Fear opens up pathways for whatever is feared to enter the being, as it creates a vibrational ‘link’ between the individual and the feared event or circumstance. Fear also opens holes int he vital envelope, or aura, that helps protect the individual from catching illnesses. We have all heard of instances where doctors wade into a contagious environment without fear and are able to remain healthy while treating innumerable sick individuals. Fear thus is part of the mechanism that spreads disease and can help create the development of pandemics.

There are various kinds of sciences in the world, but the ones that we value the most are those that can affect and improve our lives today.

All the stuff of the romantic stories that have been written for thousands of years goes back to the story of Adam of Eve.

They were each asked to focus on the eye of a particular bird in a tree at some distance, with the idea that they should be able to shoot an arrow through that extremely tiny target with the proper concentration.

There is a complete reversal of consciousness that occurs when the inner being opens and the awareness shifts inward. It may be experienced as a separation of an observer watching all the actions and events in the outer world, including the thoughts, feelings, perceptions and outer stimuli that impinge upon the being. Suddenly one might feel transported into a different state of awareness where the outer actions seem to be somewhat illusory or unreal. This seems to be one of the experiences that led to the development of the concept of the illusion of the world.
