Sri Aurobindo writes that the one most important aim of life, and the pursuance of that aim, is that man is capable of self development, of some approach to an ideal standard of perfection, (which his mind is able to conceive). A living of man in the Divine and a divine living of the Spirit in humanity will, therefore, be the whole object of an integral Yoga of self-perfection.
