Work, Devotion, Meditation and the Practice of the Integral Yoga

1
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:05,100
Whatever the predominant aspect
of the individual nature.

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:10,400
The spiritual aspiration seizes
upon that as the leading power

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:16,300
to carry the sadhna forward.
Nevertheless, at some point, it

4
00:00:16,300 --> 00:00:21,400
is important to recognize both
the value and the necessity of

5
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:27,200
the other aspects for what is
after all an integral yoga with

6
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,400
the goal of spiritual
realization and And the

7
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:34,500
transformation of human nature
based on that realization.

8
00:00:35,700 --> 00:00:39,300
This is different than past
yogic practices that Focus

9
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:44,400
primarily on Liberation and did
not concern themselves with the

10
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:49,200
external life at all.
We go go of works is essential

11
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,700
to ensure that the entire nature
including the most external

12
00:00:53,700 --> 00:00:59,700
Parts, participate in the yogic
development and to carry out the

13
00:00:59,700 --> 00:01:05,200
actions of transformation called
for sole focus on meditation or

14
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:10,200
devotion may lead to high
spiritual experiences or the

15
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,400
goal long sought-after in the
past of liberation.

16
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:19,200
But they met in today's context,
be imbalanced and fail to

17
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,700
achieve.
The purpose of the integral

18
00:01:21,700 --> 00:01:25,500
yoga.
Thus work is considered to be

19
00:01:25,500 --> 00:01:30,400
essential to provide the balance
and the field of opportunity to

20
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:37,500
transform the outer nature.
SRI aurobindo observes quote to

21
00:01:37,500 --> 00:01:41,900
say that when enters the stream
of sadhna through work, only is

22
00:01:41,900 --> 00:01:45,200
to say too much.
One can enter it, through

23
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:51,200
meditation or buck T also but
work is necessary to get into

24
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:56,700
full stream and not drift away
to one side or go circling their

25
00:01:56,700 --> 00:02:02,200
of course all work helps provide
it as done in the right spirit.

26
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,500
The mother adds quote work done
in the true spirit is

27
00:02:08,500 --> 00:02:14,700
meditation.
And let us work as we pray for

28
00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:18,000
indeed.
Work is the body's best prayer
