This
article on past incarnations reminds me of another point I need to add to the “Practising Yoga without a Guru” article, which is that
after the passing of a Guru, people spend inordinate amounts of time in
reminiscing who they actually were, how great they were and all the work they
did.
The
Guru says “live in the present” but people get stuck in that past moment,
recalling adoringly how he said those words and what happened after that. This
is nostalgia. We ought to be studying ourselves (becoming more self-aware)
rather than obsessively studying Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. [Just added a
new section to the "Practising Yoga without a Guru" article on this
topic"]

Integral education for transformation Harvinder Kaur,
Dec, 13, 2012: ESSENCE OF EDUCATION Deccan herald Supplements › DH Education
My
earlier experiments and search for a deeper, wider and more relevant education
led me to explore Integral Education, inspired by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.
Integral Education is an education that seeks to transform the entire being —
the body, heart, and head while seeping into the deeper layers of the inner
being. An education that is not a mere rat race or a vanity appeaser, an education
where the child is not a mere ‘product’, an education that lets a child be a
child. 1:32 PM
