Essential Life Skills, Sri Aurobindo

The True Self

In the view of yoga, we’re being transformed into spiritually conscious beings — not just human expressions but spiritual expressions. So, in a sense, God Himself becomes the practitioner of the spiritual path. God Himself, the true self in us, does the yoga.

Baba Hari Dass: In the early stage of yoga, it is false and the doer is also false. But after faithful practice, the false sadhana becomes true and the doer becomes the real doer.
Sri Aurobindo: The passage from the lower to the higher is the aim of yoga.
The various schools of yoga each have specific methods to help one evolve from the lower nature to the higher nature

The Integral Yoga method is to put our entire conscious being into relationship and contact with the Divine
The lower nature is transformed by the Divine
As we practice yoga, we can discover our true self
