Can somebody please explain what this ashram stands for? Too much talk about this and that but the essence is lost. Can you explain in one sentence at least if not a word what shri aurobindo’s message was?
Sri Aurobindo's message in few sentences: Man is a transitional being who will be surpassed by a diviner being just as the animal has been surpassed by man. Unlike previous stages of evolution, this leap from Man to Superman requires conscious and voluntary effort of man. The effort to concentrate the evolution of a few lifetimes in a single or few lifetimes is what the Integral Yoga is essentially about. The Sri Aurobindo Ashram is a place dedicated to this next upcoming or ongoing spiritual evolution, a laboratory of evolution if you like. Its aim is not an escape from life into an other-worldly salvation but the transformation of earthly life; its method is not renunciation as ordinarily understood but the effort to manifest a higher and higher spiritual perfection.
Thank you. Is there a good book on Sri Aurobindo’s integral yoga methods? His original works are difficult to understand. I would love to read a simplified version.
Simplified interpretations are not encouraged in our tradition, but there are easy to read selections, such as this one: drive.google.com/file/d/1cKaU_CZOcD-9FKrbdCTbxZp93heH8Sif/view?usp=sharing

Happy
Very illuminating
Fear is the greatest difficulty as Maa said. If 'Ego' has hope then is there any possibility in 'Fear'?
