This episode is also available as a blog post: https://sriaurobindostudies.wordpress.com/2022/09/26/bringing-harmony-between-the-inner-psychic-being-and-the-external-nature/
1
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:06,600
For Sri aurobindo truth of the
spirit is to be lived not
2
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,600
attained by abandonment of life
in the world.
3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:16,000
He looks at the evolution of
body life in mind as steps along
4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,300
the evolutionary process and
each one of them represents an
5
00:00:21,300 --> 00:00:24,800
important stage in an ongoing
development.
6
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:30,000
The action of these instruments
is to be uplifted and perfected
7
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:34,100
as new evolutionary Powers enter
into the world.
8
00:00:35,300 --> 00:00:38,800
The developed human being can
participate consciously in this
9
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:43,900
process and thereby Aid in
bringing forth, these new powers
10
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:49,400
and transforming the nature and
thereby the life in the world.
11
00:00:50,900 --> 00:00:54,400
SRI aurobindo, recount, two
primary mechanisms whereby the
12
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,500
individual aligns himself with
this development.
13
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,000
The safest and easiest is the
linking of the being with the
14
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,300
inner psychic entity, the soul
deep, within behind the heart.
15
00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:13,400
This brings a sense of devotion,
compassion, Goodwill and
16
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,700
aspiration.
That helps to overcome all
17
00:01:16,700 --> 00:01:21,100
doubts fears and uncertainties
along the way.
18
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,200
For some individuals.
However, the path of development
19
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:30,300
and linkage lies primarily
through the mental Center, this
20
00:01:30,300 --> 00:01:32,000
path.
Involves the shifting of the
21
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:37,000
standpoint to one of the witness
of the nature and then exerting
22
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,200
from there, the pressure to
break through the habitual
23
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,200
patterns of the external being
eventually.
24
00:01:44,900 --> 00:01:49,100
Either way there must result.
A Harmony between the inner
25
00:01:49,100 --> 00:01:54,100
being the aspiring soul.
And the outer nature and actions
26
00:01:54,700 --> 00:01:58,500
so that the outer reflects the
sense of the inner.
27
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:05,500
SRI aurobindo observes quote.
the other side of discipline is
28
00:02:05,500 --> 00:02:09,600
with regard to the activities of
the nature of the mind of the
29
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:14,400
LifeCell for Vital of the
physical being, Here, the
30
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,000
principle is to Accord the
nature with the inner
31
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,700
realization.
So that one may not be divided
32
00:02:20,700 --> 00:02:24,900
into two discordant Parts.
They are here several
33
00:02:24,900 --> 00:02:27,300
disciplines or processes
possible.
34
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,600
When is to offer all the
activities to the Divine and
35
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,900
call for the inner guidance, and
the taking up of one's Nature by
36
00:02:35,900 --> 00:02:39,800
a higher power.
If there is the inward Soul
37
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,800
opening, if the psychic being
comes forward, then there is no
38
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,700
great difficulty, there comes
with it, the psychic
39
00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:51,900
discrimination, a constant
intimation.
40
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:56,700
And finally a governance, which
discloses and quietly, and
41
00:02:56,700 --> 00:02:59,700
patiently removes all
imperfections.
42
00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:04,200
Brings the right mental and
vital movements and reshapes.
43
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:09,800
The physical Consciousness also,
Another method is to stand back
44
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,400
detached from the movements of
the Mind, life, physical body to
45
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,600
regard their activities as only
a habitual formation of General
46
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,600
nature in the individual imposed
on us by past workings.
47
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,900
Not as any part of our real
being in proportion as one
48
00:03:28,900 --> 00:03:33,700
succeeds in this becomes
detached sees mind and its
49
00:03:33,700 --> 00:03:38,600
activities as not oneself.
Life in its activities as not
50
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:43,600
oneself, the body and its
activities as not oneself.
51
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,200
One becomes aware of an inner
being within us.
52
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:53,100
Inner mental, inner vital, inner
physical silent.
53
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:58,900
Calm Unbound.
Unattached which reflects the
54
00:03:58,900 --> 00:04:03,400
true self above and can be its
direct representative.
55
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,100
From this inner silent beam
proceeds and rejection of all
56
00:04:08,100 --> 00:04:12,500
that is to be rejected and
acceptance, only of what can be
57
00:04:12,500 --> 00:04:18,200
kept at, transformed an inner
will to Perfection or a call to
58
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,300
the divine power to do it.
Each step, when it's necessary
59
00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:27,300
for the change of the nature,
and can also open mind life and
60
00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:32,200
body to the inmost, psychic
entity and its guiding influence
61
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:37,300
where it's direct guidance.
In most cases, these two methods
62
00:04:37,300 --> 00:04:42,000
emerge in work together and
finally fuse into one, but one
63
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,400
can begin with either the one
that feels most natural and easy
64
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,800
to follow.
Finally in all difficulties were
65
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,800
personal effort is hampered to
help with the teacher can
66
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,400
intervene and bring about what
is needed for the realization or
67
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:05,900
for the immediate step that is
necessary in quote reference SRI
68
00:05:05,900 --> 00:05:10,300
aurobindo and the mother living
within the yoga approach to
69
00:05:10,300 --> 00:05:14,800
psychological health and growth
exercises for growth and
70
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,000
Mastery.
