There is a section of humanity, which wants to engage with the yoga of Sri Aurobindo, also known as the Integral Yoga, the Supramental Yoga or very simply as the Mother’s Yoga. It is here that one encounters a second difficulty, that of practice of the Yoga in the physical absence of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. One feels lost and caught up between an incessant urge to practice the yoga and an inability to quite comprehend as to what a sadhaka is supposed to do to follow the path. This happens especially when there has been a little reading or none at all, and yet one has been drawn for the yoga. Of course, if the inmost soul has awakened and takes the lead of our being and the sadhana, if one has felt intuitively the Mother’s Presence and opened oneself to Her in a wide gesture of self-giving, devotion and service, then there is no fundamental difficulty. Such a person walks the straight and sunlit path of Yoga, freed from doubts and serious difficulties. Even if he has countless defects in his nature, his path and the eventual outcome is assured. But such souls are still rare and fortunate. Most experience some initial difficulties with understanding the way. It is here that we discover the treasure trove of Sri Aurobindo’s and the Mother’s works. It is important however to know that there is no external initiation in this yoga. What is needed is a call for the path from within, and if there is this call and a sufficient support of faith, the Divine Master will build the Divine Perfection and transform this mud-born creature, shaped so far under the shadows and laws of ignorance.
