THE YOGA OF INTEGRAL TRANSFORMATION
Debashish Banerji Ph.D.
Sundays Once Monthly 11:00am to 1:00pm
October 2007 to March 2008 Admission: $10 per lecture
In his magnum opus, The Life Divine, the modern Indian seer and yogi, Sri Aurobindo has diagnosed the human condition as one of sevenfold Ignorance. In his own life and teaching, he developed the goals and techniques of experience and power by which this condition can be overcome. Adapting his own terminology, this can be called a sevenfold perfection.
Sri Aurobindo spelled out this psychology of integral transformation in a number of texts, principally his work on yoga, The Synthesis of Yoga and his diaries, published recently under the title Record of Yoga.

This course will draw out the feature of the seven limbs of self-perfection, including the phenomenology of paranormal powers relating to a transformed humanity and disciplines and attitudes necessary to their development. In this exploration, following Sri Aurobindo, a cross-cultural approach will be taken, introducing Sanskrit terminology in context with explanations and implications in terms of modern psychological theory and practice.
This lecture series will be recorded live for UPR's distance learning program. It is open to the public, as well as students of UPR.
