Developing and Integrating Calm and Peace in the Being

1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:07,100
If we remain constantly an
active motion and react to all

2
00:00:07,100 --> 00:00:09,200
the sent Impressions and
pressures.

3
00:00:09,300 --> 00:00:14,000
That impinge upon us from the
outer world, it is difficult to

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,800
achieve a status of calm or
peace.

5
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,700
One of the values of sitting
regularly for a time of quiet

6
00:00:21,700 --> 00:00:27,000
reflection meditation or
concentration is just the

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,400
ability to step back away from
the hustle and bustle.

8
00:00:30,500 --> 00:00:34,700
Love our daily lives and
cultivate an atmosphere of

9
00:00:34,700 --> 00:00:39,200
Serenity around us.
Once this atmosphere is well

10
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,200
established, it can
automatically Aid us as we take

11
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,900
up the daily life and meet our
daily challenges and

12
00:00:46,900 --> 00:00:52,700
provocations.
SRI aurobindo, writes, quote one

13
00:00:52,700 --> 00:00:55,600
can go forward.
Even if there is not peace

14
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,300
quietude and concentration are
necessary.

15
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,200
Peace is necessary for the
higher states to develop.

16
00:01:05,900 --> 00:01:07,700
It is quite natural that it
first.

17
00:01:07,700 --> 00:01:10,600
There should be the condition of
calm and peace.

18
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:15,400
Only, when you sit for
concentration, what is important

19
00:01:15,500 --> 00:01:19,300
is that there should be this
condition whenever you sit and

20
00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:21,400
the pressure for it always
there.

21
00:01:22,700 --> 00:01:27,100
But at other times the result is
at first only a certain mental

22
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:32,900
quiet and freedom from thoughts.
Afterwards, when the condition

23
00:01:32,900 --> 00:01:37,800
of peace is quite settled in the
inner being for it is the inner

24
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:42,400
into which you enter whenever
you concentrate, then it begins

25
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,800
to come out and control the
outer so that the calm and peace

26
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,500
remain.
Even when working mixing with

27
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:55,800
others talking or other
occupations, For then, whatever

28
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,100
the outer Consciousness is doing
one.

29
00:01:59,100 --> 00:02:02,800
Feels the inner being calm
within indeed.

30
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:07,300
When feels the inner being as
one's real self, while the outer

31
00:02:07,300 --> 00:02:13,500
is something superficial through
which the inner axon life, and
