And the worship of the Das Mahavidyas? What are Mother Mirra’s Teachings on liberation and ending the Cycle of Birth and Death? And how to reach the Divine? Please guide me. I am new to Sri Aurobindo and the Mother and don’t know about these.
The Integral Yoga is a way to complete God realisation, not in one or other but in all aspects. Its eventual goal is a complete transformation of nature.
There are some who practice the Integral Yoga in the Ashram and many more who practice it outside Pondicherry.
Its main processes are sincere aspiration for the Divine and the Divine Life, rejection of all that stands in the way of giving oneself to the Divine and His Service, surrender to the Divine Mother.
Liberation is not the goal of the yoga, but it does come in during the course of the yoga.
There are no rituals here. It is mainly an inner psychological process. No traditional fast etc., are prescribed. Karma and rebirth are a means for the inner evolution rather than reward and punishment.
Read the Mother’s writings and take Her Name inwardly. For more details, you can listen to my talks on auromaa.org (YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AuroMaa)
