How could Sri Aurobindo never get angry or blame people despite difficult circumstances? What was His mental state that He could remain so dispassionate? How can one arrive at that state?🧘😊🌼🍃[…]

I try to remain unaffected around certain people and situations, but I think it does affect me. In this sense, even if I remain mentally calm and do not react, I feel some part of me shuts down emotionally. Why do I feel sad and not liberated when I do not respond to emotionally triggering situations?

This state is the result of Kalyan Sraddha, or the faith that all will be well regardless of the appearances. With absolute trust in the Divine, there comes absolute Peace. It is also the result of deep compassion and love that does not blame people but understands their real difficulties and has a benevolent attitude towards them. By growing in love towards Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, one begins to grow into their likeness, and full of Peace and Calm simply because of a progressive identification with their consciousness.

Affectionately,

Many unwanted things begin to show up in close…

The Mother speaks about the Yoga of Works and says that it is the highest path in Sri Aurobindo’s Integral Yoga. In that case, would it be appropriate for me to become actively involved with my nearest branch of the Sri Aurobindo Society? 🛕😊🙏🏻🌼[…]

Your logic is quite correct except that the words evolution and manifestation need not be used interchangably. A static perfection is possible by a manifestation of the Divine…
