Abstract

In the Neo-Vedanta region Aurobindo remembered as a great newlinepersonage with several epithets like a zealous freedom fighter, who, newlinethrough it was for a few years, brought about many changes in the realm newlineof Indian politics and an ideal yogic philosopher who, brought forth quite newlinenew concepts, namely integral Advaita, and Integral Yoga in Indian newlinephilosophy. newlineAurobindo s truthful, clean, honest, inspired writing in the cause newlineof freedom and the all-sided regeneration of India based on spiritual newlinerevitalization, and latterly the divinization of mind, life and matter, were newlinethe aims which were sacred to him and next to his heart. He endeavoured newlineto fulfill these aims through newspapers, leaflets, booklets, books, letters, newlineconversations, talks, speeches, contemplation, action and invoking newlineSupermind-Consciousness. newlineThis study is an attempt to present the theory of consciousness in newlineNeo-Vedanta and it aims to trace out the enhancement of human newlinepossibilities through the integration of consciousness in the basis of newlineAurobindo s philosophy of Supramental-Consciousness. newline
