Comparing Current General State of Human Consciousness With More Evolved States, Part 1 Unconsciousness Versus Increasing Consciousness · Sri Aurobindo Studies

  What does the evolution of a new Power Of Consciousness imply?
• 0:07
  When we observe the impact that the life force has had on
• 0:10
  matter, we can see that it brings in a radical
• 0:13
  transformation of matter itself to allow the Life Force to act.
• 0:19
  Matter has to become more responsive, more flexible less
• 0:24
  dense in order to carry out the demands of the Life Energy.
• 0:29
  Similarly, when we observe the Advent of Mind into life and
• 0:34
  matter we see further radical Transformations, taking place to
• 0:38
  the point that mind is now exploring.
• 0:41
  Subatomic Realms conducting genetic engineering and
• 0:46
  rearranging the action of the life force as well, as the basic
• 0:51
  substances of matter, we met them wonder about the next phase
• 0:56
  of the evolutionary progression, beyond the mind, and what
• 1:00
  characteristics it will have and how it will differ from the
• 1:03
  current status of the Mind life, and matter, and their relation
• 1:08
  to one another Dr. Dalal details a number of such comparative
• 1:13
  factors which will be taken up sequentially in separate parts.
• 1:19
  The first major difference is in the level of awareness that
• 1:22
  begins to make aspects of our being and existence of which we
• 1:27
  remain mostly ignorant, and present susceptible to our
• 1:31
  awareness. In the Life.
• 1:34
  Divine SRI aurobindo details, what?
• 1:36
  He terms to be the Sevenfold ignorance and subsequently the
• 1:40
  progression towards the Sevenfold knowledge.
• 1:44
  There's an ignorance of what Remains Not only unconscious or
• 1:48
  subconscious to us, but also of those Realms and aspects, which
• 1:52
  are superconscious above our current level of awareness and
• 1:57
  thus, not able to be perceived or understood by us.
• 2:02
  Any development of a new power or level of Consciousness will
• 2:05
  therefore have to bring with it, new levels of awareness and
• 2:10
  knowledge of ourselves, and our environment, and our
• 2:13
  relationship to the universal manifestation.
• 2:17
  We can expect there by that, the inconsistencies and disharmony
• 2:21
  brought about through our incomplete knowledge at the
• 2:25
  mental and vital levels will find potential Solutions as a
• 2:30
  new more, Hands of Power Of Consciousness, begins to
• 2:34
  manifest. Dr. Dalal notes, quote, the
• 2:40
  difference between the presently, normal State of
• 2:42
  Consciousness, and the more evolve State of Consciousness at
• 2:45
  which inner growth, Ames, is reflected in their contrasting
• 2:50
  characteristics, some of which are indicated below A the normal
• 2:57
  State of Consciousness is more or less submerged in
• 3:00
  unconsciousness. In the normal State, a person is
• 3:04
  totally unconscious of the deeper and higher levels of the
• 3:07
  being and largely unconscious of even The Superficial being made
• 3:12
  up of the body Consciousness, thoughts and feelings.
• 3:17
  With the inner growth of ones. Being there comes an increasing
• 3:20
  Consciousness for Consciousness is the very nature.
• 3:25
  Absence of being and quote, reference three aurobindo and
• 3:31
  the mother growing within the psychology of inner development
