His magnum opus, The Life Divine, is acknowledged as a most profound work in the realms of Yoga, Philosophy and the enigma that is life. While Sri Aurobindo’s books are demanding, A Greater Psychology succeeds in bringing his insights to a wider public. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the first half of the book, A.S.

A.S. Dalal has done a superb job in presenting a balanced sampling of Aurobindo's psychological writings. Because of its fair and representative nature, its comprehensive examples, and the clarity of Dalal's own commentary, this book is surely the finest overview of Aurobindo's psychological thought now available.”--- From the Foreword by Ken Wilber \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“… The Greater Psychology awaiting its hour…”--- Sri Aurobindo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword by Ken Wilber\r\nIntroduction by Arabinda Basu\r\nEditor’s Preface\r\n\r\nPart One \r\nAn Anthology of Sri Aurobindo’s Writings\r\nConsciousness the Reality\r\nThe manifold Being\r\nThe Surface Being and the Inner Being\r\nThe Inconscient\r\nThe subconscient\r\nThe Outer Being\r\nThe Inner Being\r\nThe Psychic Being\r\nPurusha and Prakariti\r\nThe Gunas of Prakriti\r\nSelf, Ego and Individuality\r\nThe Superconscient\" Gradations of the Higher Consciousness\r\nLiberation and Transformation\r\nValidity of Supraphysical and Spiritual Experience\r\nThe Psychology of Faith\r\nStates of Consciousness\r\nSleep and Dreams\r\nPsychical Phenomena\r\nEvolution of Mankind: Psychological and \r\nSpiritual Growth of Society\r\nTowards a Greater Psychology\r\n\r\nPart Two  \r\nEssays on Sri Aurobindo’s Psychology Thought\r\n\r\nThe Nature and Methoodology of Yoga Psychology\r\nThe Scientific Study of Consciousness\r\nConsciousness: The Materialistic and the Mystical Views\r\nSri Aurobindo on the Structure and Organization of the Being\r\nSri Aurobindo on the Self as Experienced in Yoga\r\nSelf, Ego and Individuality\r\nSri Aurobindo on Human Development\r\n\r\nAnthology \r\nSources\r\nGlossary of Names and Terms\r\nIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"Sri Aurobindo \/ Sri Aurobindo Ashram \/ Paperback","offer_id":68153744195952,"sku":"32529","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5203\/9792\/files\/32529.jpg?v=1793913511","url":"https:\/\/marketcalvexa.shop\/products\/a-greater-psychology-an-introduction-to-the-psychological-thought-of-sri-aurobindo","provider":"Alderstone House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
