Has all the answers
If you are the type of person who is seeking to understand the abilities of human consciousness beyond the day-to-day existence, this material will provide you with that information.

It would appear that other books, self-help books in particular, have taken one piece of the totality of knowledge required to put into practice a desired existence inclusive of several realms of consciousness. They are not helpful in reaching these realms or levels.

The Integral Yoga is not "one piece" it is the totality. Within the pages of this book you will find the knowledge of a man, Sri Aurobindo, who, with continued practice, was able to reach realms or levels of consciousness unimaginable to most.

Clearly written, easy to understand and practice. It is a journey that is more fulfilling than any journey you might take in the world of matter.

The Integral Way
Wow, there are great books, and there a books that leave you in somewhat a query, this book exceeds the "great book status, and moves to the awesome book status. Aurobindo's awareness is rare, and certainly focuses on devotion to God, rather than, acquiring knowledge. Aurobindo succeeds in relating liberation with the reality of actually knowing and wanting God.

"Your life is your yoga."
If ever you've wondered how to integrate the living of your life into your spiritual practice so that your life can actually become your practice, then Aurobindo's "The Integral Yoga" is for you. Here is one of the few recent sages who not only saw beyond the beyond, but lived his life from that perspective. If you've been searching, but not finding answers, chances are that Aurobindo's cogent comments will more than meet that need as he walks you through what it means to lead a deeply spiritual life, and then shows you how to do it.
