Product Description

Product Description

Integral Yoga: Sri Aurobindo's Teaching & Method of Practice US Edition One of the foremost Indian philosophers of the twentieth century, Sri Aurobindo was also a political activist, a mystic and a spiritual leader. Between 1927 and 1950, Sri Aurobindo remained in seclusion while perfecting a new kind of spiritual practice he called the Integral Yoga. During this period he gave detailed guidance to disciples and seekers, responding to thousands of inquiries. This correspondence constitutes a major body of work on the practice of yoga-sadhana. The present volume brings together a comprehensive selection of Sri Aurobindo's letters, organized by area of interest. An ideal introduction to his work and vision, it will also serve as an invaluable daily handbook for seekers of all paths - beginners and experienced practitioners alike. Glossary.

Best Intro 30 Jun 2006
Format:Paperback
This is the best Introduction to Sri Aurobindos works. His books are usually very heavy reading, so put people off. This collection of letters/essays/excerpts give a good overview without overloading the reader.

Sri Aurobindo gave the Theory of Purna or Integral Yoga, whereby you follow all the Yogas(Karma, Gyan, Bhakti, Raj , even Tantra) to find God. He admits it not new. But he the 1st person to express it in such beautiful and logical terms.

His own theory is one of evolution- while other religons fight that Theory of evolution os false, he says it is true. The next step for Humans is to evolve towards Godhood. This doesnt require living in jungle and meditating, but living a complete and satisfying Life in service of God.

Deep , Intense 30 Mar 2000
By "rudra" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is one deep book. Aurobindo is masterful in his analysis of the mind & brain, especially its limitations. As a person approaching everything in life via intellect I found his explanations right on the dot & revealing. He explains why we need to transcend our faculties to something higher. One can make more sense of the book if accompanied by spiritual practice & experience to relate to. Not for the faint hearted.

"Your life is your yoga." 6 Oct 2005
By Donna Miesbach - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If ever you've wondered how to integrate the living of your life into your spiritual practice so that your life can actually become your practice, then Aurobindo's "The Integral Yoga" is for you. Here is one of the few recent sages who not only saw beyond the beyond, but lived his life from that perspective. If you've been searching, but not finding answers, chances are that Aurobindo's cogent comments will more than meet that need as he walks you through what it means to lead a deeply spiritual life, and then shows you how to do it.

A rare find 19 Feb 2002
By Shawn Regan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I've seen this book referenced more than a dozen times by Wilber in his books so when the book presented itself I jumped
at it. It's not a book written by Aurobindo but personal instruction to those who have written to him seeking guidance.
This book is packed with the knowledge of one of India's most accomplished saints. This book reveals valuable insights
for the spiritual traveler as well as a road map of the journey. A book I would say is indispensable for anyone on
the path.

The ideal of human life is to establish over the whole being the control of a clear, strong and rational mind and a right and rational will, to master the emotional, vital and physical being, create a harmony of the whole and develop the capacities whatever they are and fulfil them in life.... &quote;

The object of the divine life, on the other hand, is to realise one's highest self or to realise God and to put the whole being into harmony with the truth of the highest self or the law of the divine nature, to find one's own divine capacities great or small and fulfil them in life as a sacrifice to the highest or as a true instrument of the divine Shakti. &quote;
