The Adventure of consiciousness, p-36 13. The intellect tells us--the Divine sould living in the truth of things would, on

Sri Aurobindo. The Life Divine, p-154 15. The first stage is well within the possible experlence of man and from it man

Sri Aurobindo. The Upanishads, p-1 16. Our unity with world being is the consciousness of the self, ----- which at once

That then is a self which must be one in its being -- otherwise we could not have this experience of unity.
Sri Aurobindo. The Life Divine, P-369 17. So too we have a double psychic entity in us the surface desire soul which
works in our vital cravings our emotions, aesthetic faculty and mental seeding for power, knowledge and happiness and a subllminal Psychicentity a pure power of lighr, love, joy and refined essence of being which is our true soul behind the outer rorm of Psychic existence we so often dignify by name. Sri Aurobindo. The Life Divine, p-220
