In Integral Yoga, we start with purification and end with surrender. But progress is rarely linear. In the midst of our tapasya, we continuously reach out with surrender. Our initial approaches in sadhana are a mixture of individualistic effort and spontaneous self-giving. Furthermore, we seek to integrate our being by gathering all the disparate parts of our nature around our shining and dynamic centre.
This intention necessitates a totally different approach, "if, instead of following one road, you go forward in a sort of movement which could be called spherical, where everything is included, which takes in all the possibilities of approach to the Divine, naturally the result is much more complete — and it is this that Sri Aurobindo calls the integral yoga — but the progress is much more difficult and much slower."
Because of this, we find the different aspects of our practice continuously cross over, deepen and flow within themselves.
The orientation also necessitates a continuity of seamless sadhana. Ultimately, there can be no breaks and lesions if we aspire for a round-the-clock practice and connection with the Divine.
This four-day immersion, with simple yet innovative practices, will experientially explore the approach in a sacred atmosphere, seeking to implement an unshakeable foundation to the essential elements of our day-to-day integral practice.
