March 1st- Readings
from the Bases of Yoga
This book is a compilation of Sri Aurobindo’s answers to queries of his
disciples to enable understanding and practice of the yoga. This passage is
about our dreams of various hues and colours. Sri Aurobindo says our dreams can
arise from any of the planes like vital, mental, even from non- human forces or
beings from other planes. Dreams can be symbolic and some that indicate
existing movements and propensities in us. If we are observant and could
interpret them correctly we can get rid of the many unwanted stuff which will
hinder our journey to a higher consciousness.
March 8th- Readings
from The Synthesis of Yoga
In this book the Mother answers to the questions of the disciples to
give them a clear understanding of Sri Aurobindo’s The Synthesis of Yoga, ”The Four Aids”. This
question is about what is the meaning of the period of divine movement in the
instrumentality of Time (Kala) which has the cycle of their action and a period
of the divine movement?
Sri Aurobindo and the Mother have introduced us to the deeper meaning of
Time like the previous thought on Dreams. Generally our awareness of time does
not go beyond our routine activities. The Mother has explained that like the
seasons of the year which has a rhythm, so too in our life, Time has a rhythm
or pattern of thoughts, actions and
reactions, inspiration and understanding unique to each individual. If
we are attentive we can break the rhythm to progress for betterment, though the
rhythm in our various planes is criss-crossing and complicated.
