The talk on “The Kalki Avatar” was also held at the Townhall, in February 2011, in the context of the seminar on “Muta- tion II”. I had been invited to give talks in Europe, the USA and India, but I had to cancel all travelling plans because of my heart condition. This led to the idea of giving a series of talks in Auroville, where I am living, and to record them so that the people who had invited me would be able, if they so desired, to have the talks all the same.

  • SAVITRI AS the YOGA of the EARTH Ananda Reddy
    SAVITRI AS THE YOGA OF THE EARTH Ananda Reddy Photo credit: Sri Aurobindo Ashram In my recent studies, when I was preparing for a workshop in Germany, I came across a message of the Mother. Although it seemed by chance, surely it was not just by chance. It was definitely by her Grace, for in fact in this message She has given the quintessence of Savitri. You may have read many comments from the Mother and many letters from Sri Aurobindo aboutSavitri , but in this small message she has given the entire theme and content of Savitri, and I could easily hold a whole workshop on this theme. The Mother writes that Savitri is : 1. The daily record of the spiritual experiences of the individual who has written. 2. A complete system of yoga, which can serve as a guide for those who want to follow the integral yoga. 3. The yoga of the earth in its ascension towards the divine. 4. The experiences of the divine Mother in her effort to adapt herself to the body she has taken and the ignorance and the falsity of the earth upon which she has incarnated. (Collected Works of the Mother (CWM), 13:24) April 2012 Vol. XIII – II 4 NEW RACE These are the four essential strands in Savitri, and each one of them can be developed in its fullness. Each of these could be given a subtitle for our convenience. For example the first one,“The daily record of the spiritual experiences of the individual who has written” could be called “Savitri as the Record of Yoga of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.” The second one, “A complete system of yoga …” could be subtitled “Savitri as the Yoga of Self-Perfection”.

  • Matrimandir Journal -8__2001.Pdf
    Matrimandir Journal No. 8, Auroville, 2001 "Be wide in me, O Varuna; be mighty in me, O Indra; O Sun, be very bright and luminous; O Moon, be full of charm and sweetness. Be fierce and terrible, O Rudra; be impetuous and swift, O Maruts be strong and bold, O Aryama; be voluptuous and pleasurable, O Bhaga; be tender and kind and loving and passionate, O Mitra. Be bright and revealing, O Dawn; O Night, be solemn and pregnant. O Life, be full ready and buoyant; O Death, lead my steps from mansion to mansion. Harmonise all these, O Brahmanaspati. Let me not be subject to these gods, O Kali." Aphorism - 55 Joy of Victory In this marvellous aphorism, Sri Aurobindo invokes in turn each of these godheads of the Veda, seeking the boon of fullness of all their various attributes. And, while we remain yet intoxicated by the strange word music of their magnificent qualities, it is upon the Mother in her aspect of Kali that he ultimately calls to not be subject to any of these gods! We begin our exploration of this Power of the Mahashakti THE great Power, Mother says of Her with this very apt aphorism which is quite expressive of Sri Aurobindo's approach. Commenting on this aphorism, Mother remarked that a profound understanding of this aspect of the Universal Mother was essential for those who want to participate in the Work in the world. The very prayer of the children of the Ashram school was to make us Hero Warriors, in other words, to be fit receptacles of her particular Force.

Sri Aurobindo's Formulations of the Integral Yoga Debashish Banerji California Institute of Integral Studies San Francisco, CA, USA Sri Aurobindo Ghose (1872–1950) developed, practiced and taught a form of yoga, which he named integral yoga. If one peruses the texts he has written pertaining to his teaching, one finds a variety of models, goals, and practices which may be termed formulations or versions of the integral yoga. This article compares three such formulations, aiming to determine whether these are the same, but in different words, as meant for different audiences, or whether they represent different understandings of the yoga based on changing perceptions.
