AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

To the best of my knowledge, the term “Integral Yoga” was introduced by Sri Aurobindo. How can others use this name? I came across a YouTube channel named “Integral Yoga” and assumed it would be related to Sri Aurobindo, but it turned out to belong to some Swami Satchidananda 😏

It is true that there are at least two organisations or gurus who have used these words integral yoga as well as Divine Life giving them a completely different meaning. One of them even wanted to file a lawsuit for patenting it! When it was pointed out to him that Sri Aurobindo used the term even before he was born, then he simply backed off as far as patenting is concerned. Anyways, to each his own path. Thankfully the Divine is not fooled by claims people make. As to the seekers they eventually reach where they are destined for. 

Affectionstely,
