The External Being and the Inner Being

1
00:00:01,500 --> 00:00:05,100
Most people identify closely
with their active external

2
00:00:05,100 --> 00:00:10,400
personality and as a result,
they consider that to be the

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,700
extent of their existence.
They live on the surface

4
00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:18,900
interact with others Family,
Friends, acquaintances,

5
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,400
Associates, and other members of
society and respond to the outer

6
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:28,300
environment, the weather, the
economic, and political

7
00:00:28,300 --> 00:00:32,700
conditions, Etc.
This constitutes the framework

8
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,500
of their lives.
Some individuals.

9
00:00:36,500 --> 00:00:40,900
However, particularly as they
begin to have experiences that

10
00:00:40,900 --> 00:00:44,300
show them, that there is another
aspect and significance to their

11
00:00:44,300 --> 00:00:48,300
lives, find that they can
observe this outer life and

12
00:00:48,300 --> 00:00:52,900
participate in it yet, feel
themselves separate and apart

13
00:00:52,900 --> 00:00:58,100
from that existence, they begin
to experience an inner life.

14
00:00:59,700 --> 00:01:04,300
As these individuals explore the
experiences thoughts, emotions

15
00:01:04,300 --> 00:01:08,700
and feelings that are associated
with this separation, they begin

16
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:12,800
to recognize that the Apparently
superficial goals objectives.

17
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:19,100
And purposes of the external
life are insufficient to explain

18
00:01:19,100 --> 00:01:23,800
either the existence of the
universal manifestation or

19
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,600
indeed their own lives.
In many cases, they have

20
00:01:28,700 --> 00:01:32,800
intimations of a long
developmental process and

21
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:39,200
evolution of Consciousness in
which they have participated in

22
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,200
some cases.
They have intimations of past

23
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,400
lives and experiences that fall
outside the framework of the

24
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:52,200
external life they lead. if
pursued further the individual

25
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,400
either comes in contact with the
psychic being the sole, which is

26
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:00,500
a part from the Mind life body
that he occupies in this

27
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:06,100
lifetime, or he finds himself
achieving a new standpoint of a

28
00:02:06,100 --> 00:02:12,100
witness of the nature, free
independent and able to observe

29
00:02:12,100 --> 00:02:17,700
and eventually direct the outer
being free aurobindo notes,

quote, There are we may say to
beings in us, one on the surface

31
00:02:24,900 --> 00:02:29,200
are ordinary exterior, mind
life, body Consciousness,

32
00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:35,100
another behind the veil.
An inner mind, an inner life and

33
00:02:35,100 --> 00:02:39,300
inner physical Consciousness,
constituting another or inner

34
00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:43,000
self.
This inner self once a week

35
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,900
opens in its turn to our true.
Real Eternal self, it opens

36
00:02:47,900 --> 00:02:51,700
inwardly to the soul called in
the language of this yoga.

37
00:02:51,700 --> 00:02:55,800
The psychic being which supports
our success of births.

38
00:02:56,500 --> 00:03:00,800
And in each birth assumes, a new
mind, life and body.

39
00:03:01,700 --> 00:03:05,700
It opens above to the self or
Spirit, which is unborn.

40
00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:10,300
And by conscious recovery of it,
we transcend the changing

41
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:15,200
Personality and Achieve freedom
and full Mastery over our nature
