Synthesis of Yoga

The Synthesis of Yoga is Sri Aurobindo’s principal work on yoga. In this volume he examines the traditional systems of yoga as well as giving a most thorough explanation of his own system of Integral Yoga.

This reading is comprised of the second half of Chapter 3 Psychology of Self-Perfection found in Part 4 The Yoga of Self-Perfection.

Man, the microcosm, can become aware by a developing power of Yoga, that his material existence is not a thing apart and self-existent. He can open up and increase the action of higher planes in himself …but his most important capacity is that of developing the powers of the higher principles in himself … by an ascending movement he can develop his human imperfection towards greater perfection.

But whatever his aim, he has to begin from the law of his present imperfection and see how it can be converted to the law of possible perfection.
