The Life Divine – Conversation #2
Channel: Cosmos Co-op
Date: 10/06/2018

After an introductory session last week, our Life Divine study group begins its discussion of Aurobindo’s text, with Matteo leading the conversation (after Marco’s opening remarks, and a silent meditation) with a ritual mantra from the first pages of the book.

## Reading

The Life Divine, Chapters 1–5 (pps. 1–46)

## Background

Hosted by the editors of Metapsychosis.com, Journey to Supermind is a series of reading/writing and creative/spiritual practice group events dedicated to the philosopher, poet, integral yogi, and spiritual revolutionary Sri Aurobindo. 

In this weekly series running from June to November 2018, we are reading his magnum opus of evolutionary metaphysics, The Life Divine, while creating a field for exploring his poetic and literary works (e.g., Savitri); political and historical thought (e.g., The Human Cycle); and practical teachings on human transformation, or Integral Yoga (e.g., The Synthesis of Yoga).
