What is Evolution according to Sri Aurobindo
A consciousness started action on material. Due to this action we got plants and trees. The consciousness did not stop here and in next we got animals and birds. At last we have got man.
Now the consciousness is working on man. When man was made an ego consciousness was made with him. This ego consciousness has been giving him(man) a very fast development. But this is giving him a very individual-istic approach too. We have a soul too but due to this ego we are unable to see it.
The supreme consciousness which is working from very beginning compelling us to break our ego. It has taken use of ego and wants to break it.Our soul also does not want to live behind the curtain of ego. That (soul ) also wants to come in front. Our main three parts mental, vital physical are inclined towards ego. This inner fight is the cause of our all unrest.
The supreme consciousness is doing everything for our betterment but ego is not understanding it. The supreme consciousness and soul want to give us a peaceful mind, positive vital and a diseaseless and deathless body. We are obliged to accept it. It is the real evolution and nobody can stop it.
Dear Uncle,
ReplyDeleteI think follower is right word for us. Uncle sometime it feel to me that I have achieved something and it gives me confidence and happiness, and other time I feel that I am a big looser, I have achieved nothing in my life. Why this contradiction in my own thoughts. If I have achieved a thing then later on why the same thing come to me for reacquisition? for example If I have encountered with a bad experience and I had overcome that experience then if next time that very situation comes to me, I feel fear instead of confidence that I already encountered this situation earlier.
D Ashish, in receipt of your lines
ReplyDeleteA man is made of parts. Main parts are mental vital physical. till we don't come under the supervision of psyche these conflicts are but natural. so main need is to open our psyche. till then have patience and faith on the Mother.
