The Subconscient Basis of Our Individual Being, Part 4 · Sri Aurobindo Studies

• 0:01
  As the individual Works to understand the Wellsprings of
• 0:04
  the motives impulses and forces that rise up through his being
• 0:09
  in the subcontinent and push him into action.
• 0:13
  A subtler, understanding begins to develop the need to
• 0:18
  distinguish between the inherited habits and embedded,
• 0:21
  atavistic movements, the influence of the society and
• 0:25
  those who interact with one and then distinguishing those Since
• 0:30
  which arise due to the influence of vital beings attempting to
• 0:34
  gain some control or result from the individual drive.
• 0:38
  This subtle understanding The first distinguishing factor for
• 0:43
  those who work through all the subtle energies to gain this
• 0:46
  understanding, is that the impulses that arise between and
• 0:50
  among individuals tend to be relatively similar as we all
• 0:55
  share. A common human Heritage and
• 0:57
  background those impulses that arise from the vital beings can.
• 1:01
  In many cases take forms that could only be considered foreign
• 1:06
  or strange in some way to the individual uncharacteristic.
• 1:11
  And not something normally experienced in day-to-day
• 1:14
  interactions. Thus the influence of vital
• 1:18
  forces can be found out through this process of patient, sifting
• 1:22
  of the energies and their impacts on the being regardless
• 1:28
  of the source. When the individual takes up the
• 1:31
  process of yoga and determines to undertake the radical
• 1:34
  transformation of human nature. The process of patient
• 1:39
  observation. Aspiration and persistent
• 1:43
  efforts represents the way forward the mother writes quote,
• 1:50
  there it is a little easier to recognize the influence for if
• 1:54
  you are the least bit attentive, you become aware of something
• 1:58
  that has suddenly awakened within you.
• 2:00
  For example, those who are in the habit of losing their temper
• 2:04
  if they have attempted ever so little to control their anger,
• 2:08
  they will find something coming. I'm outside or rising from below
• 2:13
  which actually takes hold of their Consciousness and arouses
• 2:17
  anger into them. I don't mean that everybody is
• 2:21
  capable of this discernment. I am speaking of those who have
• 2:25
  tried to understand their being in control it.
• 2:29
  These adverse suggestions are easier to distinguish.
• 2:32
  Then for instance, your response to the will or desire of a being
• 2:36
  who is of the same nature as yourself.
• 2:39
  Another human being who consequently acts on you,
• 2:43
  without this giving you a clear impression of something coming
• 2:47
  from outside the vibration. Are too alike to similar in
• 2:52
  their nature and you have to be much more attentive and have a
• 2:56
  much sharper discernment to realize that these movements
• 3:00
  which seemed to come out from you or not really yours but come
• 3:04
  from outside. But with the adverse forces if
• 3:08
  you are in the least sincere and observe yourself attentively,
• 3:12
  you become aware that it is something in the being which is
• 3:16
  responding to an influence and impulse a Question even
• 3:21
  something at times very concrete which enters and produces
• 3:25
  similar vibrations in the being there.
• 3:29
  Now that is the problem. The remedy it is always the
• 3:34
  same. Goodwill sincerity in sight
• 3:40
  patients. Oh, an untiring patients and a
• 3:46
  perseverance which is sure as you that what you have not
• 3:48
  succeeded in doing today. You will succeed in doing
• 3:52
  another time and makes you go on trying until you do succeed and
• 3:59
  this brings us back to Sri aurobindo sentence.
• 4:02
  If this control seems to you quite impossible today, well,
• 4:06
  That means that not only will it be possible that it will be
• 4:10
  realized later in quote. Reference SRI aurobindo in the
• 4:17
