An Overview of the Intermediate Zone and Ways the Seeker Can Safely Maneuver Through It

1
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:06,200
As the secret begins, to shift
the Consciousness in word, he

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:11,400
becomes aware of forces powers
and Realms that are the native

3
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,100
venues for our physical vital,
and mental, energies and

4
00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:20,300
activities, as well as existing
in and buy their own form of

5
00:00:20,300 --> 00:00:25,500
reality, and under rules that do
not necessarily match up with

6
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:29,500
those, We Believe pertain in our
external world.

7
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:34,900
The opening to these Realms can
be extremely disorienting as the

8
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:39,600
individual does not know what
they are, what they intend, nor

9
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,700
how indeed they act.
These forces can also take

10
00:00:43,700 --> 00:00:45,800
advantage of the ignorance of
the Seeker.

11
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:51,100
And in fact utilize the vitally,
go to drive the Seeker in

12
00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:55,100
directions that meet their
intention rather than carrying

13
00:00:55,100 --> 00:01:01,500
out his own stated goal, they
can be alluring misleading and

14
00:01:01,500 --> 00:01:05,800
confusing SRI.
Aurobindo terms the opening to

15
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,100
these Realms which can occur
when the Seeker begins to

16
00:01:09,100 --> 00:01:14,400
attenuate or break down the
All's separating his external

17
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,100
being from the inner planes of
existence.

18
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,100
The intermediate Zone, the best
protection to the Seeker.

19
00:01:22,100 --> 00:01:28,300
During such a period, is to have
a solid balanced, patient and

20
00:01:28,300 --> 00:01:32,500
ego left standpoint, rooted in
the psychic aspiration.

21
00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:37,400
So as to not be driven under the
impression of forces that he

22
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:42,600
cannot understand or control,
For your window notes.

23
00:01:42,700 --> 00:01:46,800
Quote, the intermediate Zone
means simply a confused

24
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,200
condition or passage in which
one is getting out of the

25
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,900
personal Consciousness and
opening into the cosmic.

26
00:01:54,300 --> 00:01:59,200
Cosmic mind, Cosmic, vital,
Cosmic physical something,

27
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,400

mind, without having yet,

29
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:13,400
of or direct contact with The
Divine truth on its own levels,

30
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,300
but one can receive something
from them.

31
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:21,800
Even from the overmind,
indirectly only as one is still

32
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,600
immersed, in the cosmic
ignorance all that comes from

33
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:31,000
above can be mixed perverted
taken hold of for their purposes

34
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:37,700
by lower even by hostile powers.
It is not necessary for everyone

35
00:02:37,700 --> 00:02:40,000
to struggle through the
intermediate Zone.

36
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:45,700
If one is purified oneself.
If there is no abnormal vanity,

00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,000
egoism ambition or other strong
misleading element or if one is

38
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:59,100
Vigilant and on one's guard, or
if the psychic is in front, when

39
00:02:59,100 --> 00:03:03,600
can either pass rapidly and
directly or with a minimum of

40
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,200
trouble into the higher.
