This little book is the Heart of Integral Yoga. It is the short path through the Letters and all the other works of the master and guide. With it, the practice is easier and the goal most certain. If you are a sincere aspirant, this book will serve you well and lead you to the sunlit path.
 No introduction! July 2, 2004
2 out of 8 found this review helpful
The book suffers from not having a suitable introduction. An explanation of the significance of the subject-matter of the book was sorely missed. The first part of the book describes the troubles Sri Aurobindo and the Mother had to go through to explain the translation of the inner I or chaitya purusha or soul as the psychic being. The chaitya purusha is one of the most important teachings of Sri Aurobindo. The chaitya purusha is not the jivaatman. The jivaatman is the akartaa witness, the chaitya purusha is associated with ahamkaara, therefore, the doer. If I understood it correctly, the chaitya purusha is the bird that eats the fruit while the jivaatman watches.
