Consciousness & Evolution

Abstract

The theory of evolution and consciousness which Sri Aurobindo has presented is fundamentally experimental. In this experiment, Sri Aurobindo, and his French collaborator, the Mother applied scientific methods and developed a new system, which has come to be known as Integral Yoga. As a result of this, a successful attempt was made in fixing the Supramental Consciousness in the mind of the cells of the human body. The entire exposition of the experiment would be too vast for this paper, but the primacy of consciousness is expounded against the background of increasing evidence being collected now in the scientific fields.
