About Discourses on The Synthesis of Yoga - Volume X
Volume Ten of this series commences with Part Four of The Synthesis of Yoga: “The Yoga of Self-Perfection” and covers the first seven chapters. In his talks that form the basis of these volumes, the author, employing simple language and contemporary contexts, strives to explain the philosophical arguments Sri Aurobindo articulates regarding his synthesis of the traditional paths of yoga with his own unique contribution to achieve the Integral Yoga. Initial chapters address the definition of integral perfection and its double movement of personal effort followed by the complete surrender to a higher power. The psychology of self-perfection deals with the instrumentation of the inner being, its purification through the emergence of the psychic being as the unifying principle. The last two chapters chart the purification of the mind, the intelligence, and the will to develop intuition, inspiration, and revelation as higher powers of “thought-sight and truth-seeing”.
