The rishi's of the rigveda place
jugni at the beginning.

00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:09,500
And in a central role in the
Spiritual Development, they

3
00:00:09,500 --> 00:00:13,100
described the flame of
aspiration.

4
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:18,700
The knower of all things.
Born the Mystic fire is the

5
00:00:18,700 --> 00:00:20,900
starting point for spiritual
growth.

6
00:00:22,100 --> 00:00:24,000
This flame resides in the
psychic.

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,200
Being the sole hidden deep
within the Mystic Heart Center.

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,000
And making itself felt to the
external formation of the Mind

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,100
life body until eventually.
It becomes the leader of the

10
00:00:37,100 --> 00:00:40,900
powers of the external being
guiding and directing them

11
00:00:40,900 --> 00:00:45,100
through multiple births and
countless steps of growth along

12
00:00:45,100 --> 00:00:51,000
the way dr.
Dalal notes, quote, in Sri,

13
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,300
aurobindo shoga, the Supreme
Consciousness truth or reality

14
00:00:55,900 --> 00:01:00,300
is spoken of as the divine As
described by SRI aurobindo

15
00:01:00,300 --> 00:01:04,800
directly quote, the Supreme
Being from whom all have come

16
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,300
and in whom all are in the
portion of the Divine

17
00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:13,500
Consciousness, which develops in
the process of evolution is

18
00:01:13,500 --> 00:01:17,800
called the soul or the psychic
Essence, it grows and becomes a

19
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,700
distinct individuality referred
to.

20
00:01:20,700 --> 00:01:25,000
As the psychic being, it is
through the psychic being that

21
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,200
the evolutionary dynamism
inherent in the Consciousness

22
00:01:29,900 --> 00:01:34,800
brings about the inner growth of
the individual explaining, the

23
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,200
nature of the psychic entity,
and the process of its Evolution

24
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:46,700
and quote SRI aurobindo writes,
quote at the beginning, the soul

25
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:50,500
in nature, the psychic entity,
whose unfolding is the first

26
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:55,300
step towards a spiritual change
is an entirely veiled part of

27
00:01:55,300 --> 00:01:57,800
us.
Although, it is that, by which

28
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,600
we exist.
And persist as individual beings

29
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:06,200
in nature, the other parts of
our natural composition are not

30
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,900
only mutable but perishable but
the psychic entity in our spur.

31
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Persists and is fundamentally
the same always it contains all

32
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,600
the essential possibilities of
our manifestation but is not

33
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,600
constituted by them.
It is not limited by what it

34
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,800
manifests not contained by the
incomplete forms of the

35
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:34,300
manifestation not tarnished by
the imperfections and impurities

36
00:02:34,700 --> 00:02:39,800
the defects and deprivations of
the surface being It is an Ever

37
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,200
pure flame of the Divinity and
things and nothing that comes to

38
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,400
it.
Nothing that enters into our

39
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:51,400
experience can pollute, its
Purity or extinguish the flame.

40
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:56,500
The spiritual stuff is
immaculate and luminous, and

41
00:02:56,500 --> 00:02:58,700
because it is perfectly
luminous.

42
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:04,800
It is immediately, intimately
directly aware of truth of being

43
00:03:05,300 --> 00:03:10,000
and truth of nature.
It is deeply conscious of Truth

44
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
and good and Beauty.
Because truth and good and

45
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,200
Beauty are akin to its own
native character forms of

46
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,200
something that is inherent in
its own substance.

47
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:25,700
It is aware also of all that
contradicts these things of all

48
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:30,000
that deviates from its own
native character of falsehood

49
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,900
and evil and the ugly and the
unseemly.

50
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,100
But it does not become these
things, nor is it.

51
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,400
Touched or Changed by these
opposites of itself which so

52
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:46,800
