Christianity: An Integral Yoga?

In a recent exchange of views I 'stuck to my guns' on the belief that the body has a part to play in the Scheme of Things as does the soul — the subtext being that the body is the form of the soul, and that the soul manifests a form according to whatever 'world' or order of being it occupies ... from this perspective the 'disembodied soul' is an incomplete human being, and furthermore that the Resurrection holds the promise for the future realisation of the whole and total perfection of the individual human person in a mode of being that is veiled within the mystery of the eschaton.So it was with some subsequent surprise and delight that I picked up both (slim) volumes of "The Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo" at a car boot sale for the princely sum of 40p, and flicking through the pages came across this:
Quote:
The second postulate is that this union with Chatushpat Brahman (the Fourfold Brahman) can and is to be realised not only in the soul (psyche), but in the whole being (person) — the soul (psyche) and nature (ousia) — of man. The mind (nous), the life (physis) and even the body (soma) of man are to participate, as well as the soul (psyche), in the blissful experience of identity, union and communion (beatitude) with the Supreme Being (The Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo, author: Rishabhchand, pub. Shri Aurobindo Ashram Press, Pondicherry, 1953, p46 — Greek equivalent theological terms my insertion in parentheses)

Well, well ...
Quote:
Sri Aurobino says that each part of the being of man is derived from the Supreme, is permeated and sustained by the Supreme and is developed and led towards a conscious union and communion with Him which is its birth-right.

And it goes on ......

my gob is well and truly smacked! I always knew that Brahminic metaphysics is a profound discourse on the nature of being, and non-being, but this, so succinctly put, goes beyond my expectations.

This is the ground of true ecumenical discourse, as far as I'm concerned. With Eriugena's The Division of Nature (a recent and impatiently awaited purchase) on the one hand, and Aurobindo's Integral Yoga on the other, both of which assert that the Supreme is All in All, whilst resisting the temptation/assumption of any mode of pantheism, I'm set for some interesting times. Life, I love it! It's full of surprises! Pax bonum! Thomas

You viewpoint is very interesting, at least for me. You see, I belong to the West and, here, is common to think that only through the sorrows can the human being become wise. I am not wholly agree with you in this point. I think that a wise man ought to know to extract teachings from every situation...even if it is a good situation.

15 Aug 2009 by Raman Reddy [One of the worst statements in the Lives of Sri Aurobindo by Peter Heehs is that Sri Aurobindo and his colleagues “have to take their share of the blame” for the partition of India, and that he never gave enough attention to the communal problem, which was the cause of it. Apart from this “wise” and uncorroborated conclusion being retrospective by about sixty years, Heehs certainly seems to know how it could have been avoided – by Muslim appeasement, of course. It is the Hindus who should have been blamed for communal politics and not the Muslims. At the most, blame them both. Most Westerners, not knowing the intricacies of secular and religious politics of India, fall for these puerile politically correct statements. The real problem is much more complex than Hindu bashing or Muslim bashing...]

AurovilleRadio - 15 August
Written by Radio Team Saturday, 15 August 2009
Today is a day for quiet reflection yet at the same time a day for celebration. The Independence of India and not surprisingly the birthday of Sri Aurobindo both fall upon August 15. Sri Aurobindo, at one period in his life actively involved in the fight for independence, retired from that work and took on the greater far-reaching inner work, which has brought us all here. The Amphiteatre at Matrimandir at 5:15 a.m. is the site of the traditional bonfire, accompanied by a reading of Savitri by the Mother accompanied by the music of Sunil. Next at Bharat Nivas at 8:30 the Indian flag will be raised, in a meditational moment of gratitude. There will be a short recitation by the students on “Sri Aurobindo”. Dr. (Mrs.) Kamla Tiwari will be honoured with “ponnadai” in appreciation of her life long achievements in the field of health care. Many Aurovilians will visit Sri Aurobindo's room in the Ashram in Puducherry throughout the day.

The Hindu : Magazine : India 62: Soaring high?
For Sri Aurobindo, a society, culture, or civilisation had to be judged by how developed its members were not just materially, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. That society or nation was successful whose citizens progressed integrally and found higher and higher levels of freedom and perfection. -Makarand Paranjape, Poet and Professor of English, Jawaharlal Nehru University
