The First Movement of Aspiration for the Divine

1
00:00:02,500 --> 00:00:05,900
Seek thou to know that from
which these creatures are born

2
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,500
where by being born they live
and to which they go.

3
00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:19,000
Hence, and enter again for that
is the eternal Thus goes to

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,100
teaching of Varona to his son,
bhrigu in the tight area.

Upanishad translation by SRI
aurobindo in the upanishads

6
00:00:27,700 --> 00:00:34,500
page, 275 We rarely stop and
wonder about how it is we exist.

7
00:00:34,500 --> 00:00:39,500
And for what reason, when we do
have such thoughts, they are

8
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:42,900
frequently.
In fact, mainly limited to the

9
00:00:42,900 --> 00:00:46,700
physical processes of birth,
life and death.

10
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:50,800
And do not focus on the larger
picture of the universal

11
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:57,300
creation and our role within
that larger creation When an

12
00:00:57,300 --> 00:01:00,700
individual begins to consider
the idea that there must be a

13
00:01:00,700 --> 00:01:06,100
rationale behind existence that
somehow this vast creation is

14
00:01:06,100 --> 00:01:11,300
not purposeless and that it has
not Arisen out of nothing and

15
00:01:11,300 --> 00:01:16,100
somehow developed the entire
complex world and indeed the

16
00:01:16,100 --> 00:01:21,200
entire creation is entire
perspective on life begins to

17
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,200
change.
Ordinarily.

18
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:28,700
We live in a world of Illusion
cut off from this larger reality

19
00:01:28,700 --> 00:01:33,900
of existence and fixated solely
on our little lives.

20
00:01:33,900 --> 00:01:36,300
In the predefined and limited
life.

21
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:40,900
That we are told is the sole
important thing for us to focus

22
00:01:40,900 --> 00:01:45,700
on.
Family, School, career, survival

23
00:01:45,700 --> 00:01:51,000
and enjoyment occupy.
Most people a few those who have

24
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,900
speculated on the meaning of all
of this, begin to seek for more

25
00:01:56,500 --> 00:02:01,800
for answers, for understanding,
and for unifying, our lives,

26
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:06,500
with the greater purpose, we
somehow feel is out there.

27
00:02:08,500 --> 00:02:13,100
The mother writes quote.
The first movement of aspiration

28
00:02:13,100 --> 00:02:16,600
is this?
You have a kind of vague

29
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,900
Sensation that behind the
universe.

30
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,900
There is something which is
worth knowing, which is probably

31
00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:28,900
for you, do not yet, know it.
The only thing worth living for

32
00:02:29,500 --> 00:02:31,700
which can connect you with the
truth.

33
00:02:32,700 --> 00:02:36,500
Something on which the universe
depends but which does not

34
00:02:36,500 --> 00:02:40,800
depend upon the universe
something, which still escapes

35
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:46,100
your comprehension but which
seems to you to be behind all

36
00:02:46,100 --> 00:02:49,900
things.
I have said here much more than

37
00:02:49,900 --> 00:02:54,200
the majority of people feel
about the thing, but this is the

38
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:59,500
beginning of the first
aspiration to know that not to

39
00:02:59,500 --> 00:03:03,000
live in this Perpetual falsehood
where things are.

40
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,500
So perverted an artificial?
This would be something pleasant

41
00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:14,100
to find something that is worth
living for and quote reference
