Sri Aurobindo’s Yoga and Roberto Assagioli’s Teachings

Aurovilian Loretta speaks of the openness and reception of the people and the spiritual force at two International workshops in October, one in Italy, sponsored by the Community of Living Ethics, and one in Canada, sponsored by The Mother’s Circle study group. Fiorenza Bortolotti, A community leader in the Italian community, gives the history of her community. Their teachings about the new force and the new age, and the yoga related to its coming are similar to Sri Aurobindo’s. Called Psychosynthesis, these teachings and methods were created by psychologist Roberto Assagioli, a contemporary of Sri Aurobindo. He based it all on teachings from the East, including Sri Aurobindo’s teachings and the transmissions received by Helena Roerich, wife of the Russian painter, Nicholas Roerich, and combined it with his knowledge of psychology and medicine. Auroville and the Community of Living Ethics have many spiritual things in common.
