Integral Yoga at Work is a qualitative study of sixteen practitioners of the Integral Yoga working in the fields of business management, education, health care, and the arts. Through a series of interviews we hear how the participants have applied the Integral Yoga in their individual fields of work and the ways they have found to live more consciously. The author concludes that the approaches to work examined in this study “show how the general life of humanity can be gradually uplifted and spiritualized through the insights and transformative effects of the Integral Yoga”. Sri Aurobindo kept himself abreast of social and political affairs throughout his life. In the Arya, the philosophical review he published between August 1914 and January 1921, he wrote a series of essays on the psychology of social development (later titled The Human Cycle) and another on The Ideal of Human Unity. The arguments and ideas presented there remain vital to our understanding of today’s world. In The Clasp of Civilizations, the author uses Sri Aurobindo’s perspectives to examine how globalisation and the central role of religion in many cultures not only present serious challenges but also pose opportunities to seek a higher synthesis, a new balance among communities and societies. The book also contains essays on the idea of India as envisioned by Sri Aurobindo and Jawaharal Nehru and a comparison between the thought of Reinhold Niebuhr and Sri Aurobindo as they each applied the insights of an ancient spiritual tradition to the problems of the modern world. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Tara Jauhar ISBN: 978-81-88847-55-6 Publisher: Matri Store, New Delhi Binding: Soft Cover Pages: 156 Price: Rs 150 | |
From the arrival of the first children in the Ashram in the early 1940s the Mother took a keen interest in their development. In this book the author recounts how the Mother helped her from an early age to develop the qualities of leadership and strength of character. At the same time, the book provides an inside look at the beginnings of the physical education activities. Also included are descriptions of the Mother's work from 1950 to 1954 with the youngest children and the genesis of her French classes with them. The author has collected the dictations, recitations and poems, stories, and translations used in class as well as a record of other topics that arose. The Mother's method of teaching and the manner in which she instilled discipline and inspired a thirst for progress in the children are revealed in these pages. | |
Integral Yoga at Work
A Study of Pracitioners' Experiences Working in Four Professional Fields Larry Seidlitz ISBN: 978-81-86413-59-3 Publisher: Indian Psychology Institute (Pondicherry) and the Digital Empowerment Foundation (New Delhi) Binding: Soft Cover Pages: 181 Price: Rs 250 | |
Formerly a research psychologist in the USA, the author conducted a qualitative study of sixteen long-term practitioners of the Integral Yoga working in the fields of business management, education, health care, and the arts. Initial chapters frame his research methodology and examine some general findings regarding the participants' practice of the Yoga in work. Results of the study in each field are based largely on interviews with the participants, and include textual references from the works of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother and the author's reflections on central themes and common experiences. The final chapter identifies the various principles and insights regarding the application of Integral Yoga in these four professional fields and presents some of the broader implications of the study. | |
The Clasp of Civilizations
Globalization and Religion in a Multicultural World Richard Hartz ISBN: 978-81-246-0805-0 Publisher: Nalanda International, Los Angeles, USA, and D. K. Printworld, New Delhi, India Binding: Hard Cover Pages: 270 Price: Rs 750 | |
Situating the Parliament of Religions, held in Chicago in 1893, as one of the first instances of a global cultural event, this collection of essays springboards into a discussion of globalisation and religion in our multicultural world. The book examines the factors in play as many of the old barriers to global movement and communication have dissolved or crumbled and a new interdependence has emerged, engendering a volatility filled with both promise and pitfalls. Sri Aurobindo’s writings on human unity and social and political development form the basis of the dialogue and discourse presented here. His vision of a spiritual religion of humanity, the growth of an inner spirit of oneness and unity that will become the dominant principle of life, informs the message of the book. | |

Individuo e Società
Sri Aurobindo e Mère ISBN: 978-93-5210-105-4 Publisher: Domani, Pondicherry Binding: Soft Cover Pages: 52 Price: Rs 120 | |
L’evoluzione non è solo individuale, ma anche collettiva. Ogni possibilità di aggregazione sociale deve essere manifestata sulla terra, affinché sia vissuta e portata alla sua massima espressione, così che l’uomo possa coglierne tutte le potenzialità ma anche gli inevitabili limiti, che porteranno la collettività umana alla ricerca di nuovi, più evoluti, assetti sociali. In questo libretto Sri Aurobindo descrive l’evoluzione collettiva attraverso le varie esperienze di aggregazione sociale recenti: Democrazia, Socialismo, Capitalismo, Collettivismo, tutte ancora insufficienti a soddisfare le richieste di una nuova società spiritualizzata. Nonostante i brani riportati siano stati scritti da Sri Aurobindo negli anni dal 1915 al 1918, con alcune note aggiunte nel 1950, essi sono più che mai attuali e non può che colpire il fatto che, con l’anticipo di oltre un secolo, Sri Aurobindo abbia in sostanza previsto quanto poi sarebbe successo, come il collasso del Comunismo e la barbarie economico-vitale dell’uomo moderno. Quanto al ruolo dei singoli individui, l’emersione dell’elemento psichico sarà la condizione alla base del cambiamento sociale. | |
