About Discourses on The Synthesis of Yoga - Volume II
In the first chapter, the author writes at length about the four pillars of Sri Aurobindo’s Integral Yoga: the knowledge of the principles and powers that govern the realisation; the action, or the force of our personal effort, laid down by this knowledge; the influence, suggestion, and example of the teacher or guru; and the instrumentality of Time. In the second chapter, he addresses Sri Aurobindo’s definition of the self-consecration required to embark on the path, the decision of the mind and the will to accept a new upward orientation in the being. A dynamic self-surrender in works is Sri Aurobindo’s subject in the third chapter, and the author takes up a discussion of the common point between the Integral Yoga and the Yoga of the Gita.
