Exploring the Chakras

This course offered in collaboration with NAMAH, The Journal of Integral Health

Dr. Soumitra Basu · February 16, 2023

NOTE: THIS IS A SELF-PACED WORKSHOP. RECORDED LESSONS ARE FROM A PREVIOUS OFFERED ONLINE LIVE COURSE.

We invite you to join Dr. Soumitra Basu on a journey of discovery into the chakras through the lens of Integral Yoga.

Sri Aurobindo focuses on the central truth of the chakras without subjection to the old forms and symbols. I n the older system, the awakening of the Kundalini has been adopted and became risky when proper guides were no longer available. Sri Aurobindo described that the Force of Transformation could open the chakras from above downwards in a new denouement that is less hazardous. However, here, no external guide is needed. What is needed is the Inner Guide or psychic being, that is distinct from the heart chakra and facilitates the Descent of the Force of transformation.

In this workshop, we will focus on the psychological approach to these centres of consciousness from the perspective of Consciousness-based Psychology.
