Growing Within: the Psychology of Inner Development: Summary and Conclusions · Sri Aurobindo Studies

• 0:02
  Humanity is facing an existential crisis.
• 0:05
  Scientists report the changes brought about by human
• 0:08
  civilization, have created the conditions that are causing what
• 0:13
  is now being called the sixth planetary, die-off of species,
• 0:19
  the land Water, and Air are all being polluted.
• 0:23
  Toxic chemicals are poisoning. The planet climate change is
• 0:28
  wreaking havoc with the entire planetary environment.
• 0:32
  The ocean is seeing its food chain.
• 0:34
  Decimated, the central species, required for food, production
• 0:39
  such as honey, bees are dying off in record numbers,
• 0:43
  threatening the world's food supply.
• 0:47
  And the issues continue to compound with no end in sight,
• 0:54
  the problems we see are based on the application of the Mind in
• 0:58
  an attempt to satisfy the desire, soul of the vital ego.
• 1:03
  Mental Solutions tend to be linear Limited in scope and
• 1:08
  generally failed to take into account the complexity
• 1:11
  interactions of a complete organic system such as the
• 1:16
  interdependent relationship of all beings in existence.
• 1:21
  The result is the kind of imbalance that is driving this
• 1:25
  crisis to the potential for enormous Devastation of the
• 1:30
  planet and Humanity. When we seek for a solution to
• 1:36
  this crisis, we find that as long as we remain locked into
• 1:40
  the mines framework and method of reaching its conclusions,
• 1:43
  there seems to be no solution some factor or factors simply
• 1:51
  Elm the best plans and given the nature of the Mind disputes
• 1:56
  arise between those who want to approach the situation in one
• 1:59
  way. And those who see a different
• 2:02
  line of development. We eventually reach a state of
• 2:07
  gridlock where nothing can be done.
• 2:10
  While the pressures continue to mount, we are then forced under
• 2:15
  this intense pressure to find a way to adapt or die.
• 2:21
  In such a circumstance. What is the nature of
• 2:25
  adaptation? SRI aurobindo is response?
• 2:28
  Is that the entire development of life on Earth shows the theme
• 2:33
  of an evolution of Interesting. This man is not this final stage
• 2:38
  of that Evolution but what he calls the transitional being
• 2:44
  Nature's process is to set forth some kind of intense pressure
• 2:49
  such as an evolutionary crisis to create the intensity required
• 2:54
  for the manifestation of the next term of consciousness.
• 2:58
  This process is what we are experiencing today.
• 3:03
  The next term of Consciousness is what SRI aurobindo calls the
• 3:08
  super mental Consciousness to signify that it is a Power Of
• 3:12
  Consciousness that exceeds the mental Level under the intensity
• 3:18
  of the pressure individuals are moved to shift their focus
• 3:22
  toward the conscious development and active participation in the
• 3:28
  Canary process SRI aurobindo indicates that man, the mental
• 3:33
  being has the capacity to consciously.
• 3:37
  Take part in and thereby dramatically speed up the long
• 3:42
  slow, and arduous developmental process of nature.
• 3:48
  SRI aurobindo in the mother as Pathfinders were able to
• 3:52
  determine how a shift from the ordinary human mentality under
• 3:57
  the control of the external ego personality and driven.
• 4:01
  By the Divine desire soul of the vital nature to a spiritual
• 4:06
  consciousness could take place This involved a process of
• 4:11
  growth where by the individual gains contact with the psychic
• 4:15
  being the sole and shifts the direction of his life.
• 4:20
  Toward the contact with and development, of a constant
• 4:24
  relation of the individual soul, with the Divine reality, which
• 4:30
  is the actual driver of the universal manifestation.
• 4:35
  The being must first be prepared and the instruments developed
• 4:40
  the aspiration for the change awakened and cherished.
• 4:45
  And then the being begins to turn its attention to the
• 4:50
  Fulfillment of the spiritual Quest.
• 4:53
  This inner process is what growing within the psychology of
• 4:57
  inner development has systematically developed an
