Sri Aurobindo's views on questions of spiritual knowledge and practice, as set forth by him in a systematic and exhaustive manner in a number of books. His views on the many issues of man's life and thought in the secular field have not been, however, set forth in this manner. An attempt is therefore made in this series to make known his views on these issues in as definite a manner as possible.

This study attempts to elucidate a possible meeting point of the traditions of Eastern and Western metaphysical thinking. In discussing Whitehead’s and Aurobindo’s views on being and becoming, it seeks the possibility of a better engagement between the East and the West in the light of the philosophical insights. It is an initiation into the Sitz im Leben of Whitehead’s philosophy and his general thought pattern. It carries a perceptive analysis to show the clear primacy of Becoming or Process in Whitehead that extends even to the Divine. It also highlights Aurobindo as a unique Indian Philosopher, who articulated Indian thought in Western categories. He was able to integrate the evolutionary theory of the West with the Indian understanding of becoming. The relationship between God and Creativity and Sachchidananda and the Supermind is studied within the context of Enlightenment and Modernity and the way of doing philosophy in the West and in the East.

This book brings to focus one of the prominent 20th century Indian thinkers, Sri Aurobindo, by providing an overview of his philosophy on life and yoga, and by elucidating his thought in the context of contemporary society. This text is unique in approaching Sri Aurobindo as a problem solver and from a conflict resolution perspective, the latter being the author’s expertise. Sri Aurobindo’s contributions such as Ideal of Human Unity, Integral Yoga, Life Divine and his poetic vision as embodied in his epic poem, Savitri, are explored in-depth. The book explores these ideas to seek possible solutions to the current predicaments of human life and society. This monograph attracts not only students and researchers in the fields of philosophy, religion, yoga, political science, international politics, Indian thought, and conflict resolution, but also general interest readers.

Indian philosopher, poet, mystic and Yogi, Sri Aurobindo, argued that human society has evolved throughout history and is destined to move towards better organization of life. Applying his ideas to problems confronting the world today, this collection presents an in-depth exploration of Aurobindo's evolutionary philosophy and Integral Yoga. Written by an international team of scholars and practitioners, each chapter takes a theoretical aspect of Sri Aurobindo's philosophy, positions it alongside policy debates on the individual and the state and explains its practical and educational benefits. Contributors discuss his vision of unity in diversity, shed light on his poetry and offer a comprehensive view of his concept of ethics as well as his metaphysics of consciousness. They examine his contribution to the Indian response to post-Enlightenment modernity and reveal how his philosophy illuminates some of the fundamental problems of our times, offering possible solutions. By presenting the first sustained discourse between Sri Aurobindo and the contemporary world, this collection addresses the relevance of his philosophy for everyday life and highlights the lasting work of this important 20th-century Indian thinker.

Essay from the year 2006 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the Present, The University of Tomorrow (Sri Aurobindo Centre for Advanced Research), course: Advanced Course in Integral Philosophy, 34 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Die Frage nach dem Woher und Wohin des Menschen besch ftigt ihn seit Urzeiten. Der heute domminierende Ansatz, ist derjenige der Evolutionstheorie. In der wissenschaftlichen Sicht wird der Evolutionsprozess aber h ufig verk rzt als rein materialistisch und nur auf Zufall beruhend dargestellt. Eine evoluiton re, spirituelle Sicht des Lebens sieht hingegen in der Evolution einen geistigen Prozess am wirken, in dem G ttliches seiner selbst bewusst wird. Im folgenden Text werden die drei verschiedenen Positionen von Sri Aurobindo (Hindu), Teilhard de Chardin (Christ) und Ken Wilber (Buddhist) entwickelt und miteinander verglichen. Alle drei zeichnen sich durch eine spirituelle Sicht des Evolutionsprozesses aus. Aurobindo's Weltformel ist: "God having entirely become Nature, Nature seeks to become progressively God." Teilhard de Chardin und Ken Wilber haben hnliche Sichtweisen entwickelt, allerdings aus ihrem jeweiligen religi sen Kontext heraus. Bei aller Liebe f r spirituelle Ans tze wird aber auch Kritik ge bt an unglaubw rdigen, bersinnlichen Erleuchtungszust nden. (Arbeit ist auf Englisch.)

This book explores the integral vision of human development contained in the original works of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother. It delves into multiple layers of the human personality as envisaged by Sri Aurobindo and The Mother and explores a new developmental science of consciousness based on the practice of Integral Yoga. The book examines the major metatheoretical conceptions that shape the contemporary discipline of developmental psychology and discusses the ways in which Sri Aurobindo’s philosophical and psychological perspective can help break fresh ground for developmental theorisation and research by extending the current understanding of the human evolutionary potential. The author proposes a new agenda for human development which brings together the key ideas of integral individual and collective development and informs practices in the areas of counselling, education, parenting and self-development. This book will be of special interest for researchers of developmental psychology, human development, counselling psychology, philosophy, social work and education.
