The object of the Integral Yoga

The object is to enter and be possessed by the Divine Presence and Consciousness, to love the Divine for the Divine’s sake alone, to be tuned in our nature into the nature of the Divine, and in our will and works and life to be the instrument of the Divine. Its object is not to be a great yogi or a Superman (although that may come) or to grab at the Divine for the sake of the ego’s power, pride or pleasure. It is not Moksha though liberation comes by it all else may come, but these must not be our objects. The Divine alone is our object. – Sri Aurobindo

Yoga and Ordinary Life

In the yoga practised here the aim is to rise to a higher consciousness and to live out of the higher consciousness alone, not with the ordinary motives. This means a change of life as well as a change of consciousness. But all are not so circumstanced that they can cut loose from ordinary life; they accept it therefore as a field of experience and self-training in the earlier stages of sadhana. But they must take care to look at it as a field of experience only and to get free the ordinary desires, attachments and ideas which usually go with it; otherwise, it becomes a drag and hindrance on their sadhana. When one it not compelled by circumstances there is not necessity to continue the ordinary life. - Sri Aurobindo
