The Subtle Higher Forces of Existence Create Our External Being and Action · Sri Aurobindo Studies

• 0:01
  When looked at from the outside, it seems that matter came first
• 0:07
  and out of matter, arose life, and out of life, arose mind.
• 0:13
  What is not addressed here is? How material forces were able to
• 0:17
  create life and intelligence in a seemingly random fashion.
• 0:23
  This is why some religious Traditions posit that there is
• 0:26
  an external all-powerful, being God, who creates everything
• 0:32
  since matter on its own, simply is not able to create something
• 0:37
  Beyond itself. The New Testament of the Bible
• 0:41
  begins with an intriguing statement of in the beginning
• 0:45
  was the word. This points to a non-material
• 0:49
  origin as the cause of existence.
• 0:53
  When we observe the working of human intelligence applied, to
• 0:57
  any situation, we see that imagination concept idea,
• 1:03
  thought and planning precede the actual creation of any material
• 1:08
  form that an individual May envision. plus, there are many
• 1:13
  who hold that, the more subtle power of thought is, in fact,
• 1:17
  the causative Factor If we follow this logic further, we
• 1:22
  find that there are even more subtle and Powerful causative
• 1:25
  elements that create thought itself.
• 1:31
  In the tight area, who punish odd the secret tries to discover
• 1:34
  the reality behind existence as he seeks for the eternal. his
• 1:40
  father, his teacher tells him to seek that, by which, all is
• 1:45
  born, by which all live and into, which all things enter
• 1:51
  Gann upon death and dissolution, The secret begins with the idea
• 1:56
  of matter, but soon finds that he cannot explain everything as
• 2:01
  resulting from matter. He continues the process
• 2:06
  eventually coming to knowledge and Bliss as the true powers of
• 2:11
  creation. Western scientists following a
• 2:15
  similar process. Have delved deeply into matter.
• 2:19
  They eventually found that matter does not exist.
• 2:23
  It is actually a form of energy. Further, they find that energy
• 2:29
  is a form of Consciousness, Consciousness pervades
• 2:34
  permeates, and constitutes the universal creation.
• 2:40
  The actual moving power is an existence are not those.
• 2:43
  We observe on the surface just as we are misled.
• 2:47
  When we believe the sun rotates around the earth, or that the
• 2:51
  Earth existence is at the center of the universe.
• 2:55
  So also, we are similarly, misled about what causes us to
• 2:59
  exist, to live, to act, to think.
• 3:03
  And to grow Dr. Dalal observes quote, a Salient aspect of Sri
• 3:11
  aurobindo as yoga pertaining to the psychology of inner growth
• 3:15
  is its view of the inner and higher planes of Consciousness
• 3:19
  as Dynamic forces though. Hidden from the outer surface
• 3:23
  Consciousness, the inner and higher parts of the being
• 3:26
  exercised on the surface parts of the being a constant
• 3:30
  influence and pressure pushing towards the evolution and growth
• 3:35
  of Consciousness alluding to the decisive part, played by the
• 3:40
  higher planes of Consciousness in the earth evolution SRI
• 3:44
  aurobindo, writes quote, our development takes place very
• 3:49
  largely by their superior but hidden action upon the Earth
• 3:53
  plane. All is contained in the
• 3:56
  incontinent or the subconscient, but in potentiality, it is the
• 4:01
  action from above that helps to compel an emergence. a
• 4:05
  continuance of that action is necessary to shape and determine
• 4:09
  the progression of the mental, and vital forms, which are
• 4:13
  Evolution tapes in material nature for these Progressive
• 4:17
  movements cannot find their full momentum or sufficiently
• 4:22
  developed their implications against the resistance of an
• 4:26
  incontinent or inert or ignorant material nature, except by a
• 4:32
  constant do occult resort to Higher super physical forces of
• 4:37
  their own character. This Resort, the action of this
• 4:41
  veiled Alliance takes place principally in our subliminal
• 4:46
  being and not on the surface. It is from there that the active
• 4:51
  power of our Consciousness emerges, and all that it
• 4:56
  realizes it sends back constantly into the subliminal,
• 4:59
  being to be stored up developed and re-emerge in stronger, forms
• 5:05
  Hereafter This interaction of our larger hidden being and our
• 5:10
  surface personality is the main secret of the rapid development.
• 5:14
  That operates a man once he has passed beyond the lower stages
• 5:19
  of Mind. Immersed in matter and quote
