Exploring the Stages and Phases of Inner Growth of the Human Individual

1
00:00:01,700 --> 00:00:04,900
When we read SRI, aurobindo
Zafar ISM noted below.

2
00:00:05,700 --> 00:00:10,300
We tend to focus on the second
part of the equation, the bar to

3
00:00:10,300 --> 00:00:14,800
achieving the higher result.
There's an implication there by

4
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,500
that we have already achieved
the first part and that we are

5
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:22,600
thus ready to proceed to the
next phase or stage of inner

6
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,500
growth.
In some cases, we assign a moral

7
00:00:26,500 --> 00:00:31,700
value to the two states and try
to apply this generally such

8
00:00:31,700 --> 00:00:35,500
that we treat desire and ego as
bad things that need to be

9
00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:39,700
removed.
And we may even go so far as to

10
00:00:39,700 --> 00:00:44,200
try to extrapolate this to
others, not just for our own

11
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:48,600
spiritual growth.
SRI, aurobindo qualifies the

12
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:53,200
phrases with the precursor of
when we have passed Beyond?

13
00:00:54,300 --> 00:00:57,900
This implies that the second
status only can be fully

14
00:00:57,900 --> 00:01:02,500
operative when we have utilized
the first status to achieve a

15
00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:06,700
specific stage of development.
Several questions.

16
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:12,000
Arise, for instance, have we
truly reached the stage of being

17
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,200
fully conscious individuals that
is brought about by the action

18
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,800
of desire and ego as all of
humanity.

19
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:25,000
Reached that stage in the case
that we as individuals or other

20
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,800
individuals have not yet, become
fully self-realized beings.

21
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,400
We find a continued need and
purpose to the action of desire

22
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,100
and the Distance of ego to the
extent that we have only

23
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:43,500
partially achieved the stage
ongoing development of the ego

24
00:01:43,500 --> 00:01:47,400
personality may still be
required further.

25
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,700
We can recognize that across all
of humanity, there is a range of

26
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:56,600
development and thus the action
of desire and ego still has a

27
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,100
very important role as the
individualization process

28
00:02:01,100 --> 00:02:04,500
expands within the frame of
human development.

29
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,600
At the right point in time, each
individual faces, the need to go

30
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,700
beyond the limits of the action
of Desire on the ego.

31
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,000
At that point, the conditions
arise for the soul, the psychic

32
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,900
being to come forward and Lead
one beyond the framework, which

33
00:02:23,900 --> 00:02:29,400
has helped shape him up to that
point SRI, aurobindo writes,

34
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:34,600
quote, when we have passed
Beyond enjoying 's, Then we

35
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,300
shall have Bliss.
Desire was to help her desire.

36
00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:42,800
Is the bar.
When we have passed Beyond

37
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,900
individualizing, then we shall
be.

38
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:51,400
Real person's ego was the helper
ego is the bar.

39
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,300
When we have passed Beyond
Humanity, then we shall be the

40
00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:00,400
man.
The animal was the helper.

41
00:03:01,300 --> 00:03:06,800
The animal is the bar.
The mother comments quote.

42
00:03:07,300 --> 00:03:10,300
It is the same principle
expressed in all the activities

43
00:03:10,300 --> 00:03:14,500
are aspects of the being.
It is obvious that in order to

44
00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:18,400
come out of the state of the
original incontinence, desire

45
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,800
was indispensable for without
desire.

46
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,500
There would have been no
Awakening to activity but once

47
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:30,800
you are born into Consciousness,
this very desire which helped

48
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,800
you to come out of the in
conscience.

49
00:03:33,300 --> 00:03:36,100
Prevent you from living.
Rating yourself from the bonds

50
00:03:36,100 --> 00:03:39,700
of matter and rising to a higher
consciousness.

51
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,500
It is the same thing for the
ego, the self in order to pass

52
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:49,100
on to a higher plane.
One must first exist.

53
00:03:49,700 --> 00:03:54,400
And to exist, one must become a
conscious separate individual,

54
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,200
and to become a conscious
separate individual.

55
00:03:58,700 --> 00:04:03,800
The ego is indispensable,
otherwise, when remains mingled

56
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,400
with all that lives around us.
But once the individuality is

57
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,200
formed if one wants to I Rise to
a higher level and live a

58
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,600
spiritual life.
If one wants even to become

59
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,399
simply a higher type of man, the
limitations of the ego are the

60
00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:26,200
worst obstacles.
And the ego must be surpassed in

61
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,800
order to enter the true
consciousness.

62
00:04:30,100 --> 00:04:35,000
And indeed, for the Ordinary
Elementary life of, man, all the

63
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,300
qualities belonging to the
animal nature, especially those

64
00:04:39,300 --> 00:04:43,800
of the body were indispensable,
otherwise man would not have

65
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,000
existed.
But when man has become a

66
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000
conscious mental being,
everything that binds him to his

67
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,900
animal origin, necessarily
becomes a hindrance to progress

68
00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:00,800
and to the liberation of the
being So for everyone, except

69
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:06,500
for those who are born free and
this is obviously very rare for

70
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:10,000
everyone.
This state of reason of effort,

71
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,300
desire individualization and
solid physical balance in

72
00:05:15,300 --> 00:05:19,700
accordance with the ordinary
mode of living is indispensable

73
00:05:19,700 --> 00:05:24,800
to begin with until the time
when becomes a conscious being

74
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:30,600
when one must give up all these
Things in order to become a

75
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:36,600
spiritual being and quote,
reference SRI aurobindo in the

76
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,400
mother growing within the
psychology of inner development.
