Attaining Certainty About the Actuality of the Reversal of Consciousness · Sri Aurobindo Studies

• 0:02
  Secrets wonder how they can be sure that the true shift of
• 0:06
  Consciousness to the Divine standpoint, or even the soul
• 0:11
  Centric standpoint has occurred. The status is so real that it
• 0:17
  permits, no doubt, whatever. When one combines the sense of
• 0:22
  reality, with the way in which one, reacts totally differently
• 0:26
  than the ego personality prior to this shift, it becomes
• 0:31
  obvious. And there need be no doubt
• 0:34
  whatsoever at that point. The mother writes quote.
• 0:41
  So long as there is any doubt or hesitation so long.
• 0:45
  As one asks oneself, the question of whether one has or
• 0:48
  hasn't realize this Eternal Soul in oneself.
• 0:53
  It proves that the true contact has not taken place for when the
• 0:58
  phenomenon occurs it brings with it an inexpressible, something
• 1:04
  so new. And so Of the doubt and
• 1:08
  questioning are no longer possible.
• 1:12
  It is truly in the absolute sense of the phrase, a new
• 1:17
  birth. You become a new person and
• 1:21
  whatever may be the path or the difficulties of the path
• 1:25
  afterwards that feeling never leaves you.
• 1:29
  It is not even something like many other experiences, which
• 1:34
  withdraws passes into the background leaving you
• 1:38
  externally with a kind of vague memory to which it is difficult
• 1:43
  to cling. Whose remembrance grows faint
• 1:47
  blurred it. It is not that.
• 1:51
  You are a new person and definitively that whatever
• 1:55
  happens and even all the incapacity of the mind, all the
• 2:01
  difficulties of the vital. All the inertia of the physical
• 2:06
  are unable to change this new state, a new state, which makes
• 2:12
  a decisive break in the life of the consciousness.
• 2:17
  The being one was before and the being one is after are no longer
• 2:22
  the same, the position one has in the universe and in relation
• 2:27
  to it in life, and in relation to it in understanding, and in
• 2:33
  relation to it is no longer the same.
• 2:38
  It is a true reversal, which can never be undone again.
