The final talk of a three-part session by Prof. Mangesh V. Nadkarni at SAYFNA, New Jersey, in April 2000. Prof. Jagdish Vyas, who organized and hosted the venue, can also be seen in this video with his concluding remarks.
There is sometimes a natural tendency to compare Sri Aurobindo’s yoga with other yogas. Today we take a look at the experience of Kundalini awakening with regard to Sri Aurobindo’s Yoga.
"Each finite thing I see is a façade;
From its windows looks at me the Illimitable.
In vain was my prison of separate body made;
His occult presence burns in every cell."
"Around him crowded grey and squalid huts
Neighbouring proud palaces of perverted Power ...
A misery haunting splendour pressed those fell
Dun suburbs of the cities of dream-life."
