I've copied them here for the convenience of our readers, especially SCIY's commenting feature that allows response, questions, and discussion to each article. It's our hope to eventually include audio recordings of classes on TLD being given at various Sri Aurobindo Centers.

The articles are organized by book and Chapter or subchapter as they were on the IY Web Site. I've included the original copyright notice at the beginning of each article.

To facilitate the use of comments for detailed discussion, the chapters are also posted as separate paragraphs in a subTopic of this Topic located at:

Here is the introduction given on the IY Web Site:

The Integral Yoga Web Site

"Welcome to the Web site of information on Integral Yoga, a spiritual path founded by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.

This site includes introductions to the yoga and to the people and centers who aspire to its golden promise -- including the revolutionary experiments in south India known as the Ashram and Auroville.

The people whose lives are being transformed by this path comprise a diverse group which spans every continent. We speak many languages and come from all walks of life. And we aspire to an integrated spirituality inclusive of all aspects of life.

Since the early part of the century, when Sri Aurobindo and the Mother began publishing articles and books, to the present day, as journals and books continue to appear, a large body of literature has grown up related to this yoga. Our web site will contain excerpts, reviews, and texts so you can begin exploring for yourself.

We will also include news of current meetings, artistic events, cultural exchanges, and conferences around the world.

The major sections of this site are identified by icons which appear in all the pages of the corresponding sections. These icons are linked to the main page of each section. Within a section, the left and right arrow buttons can be used to move to the documents logically adjacent to the current page. Also provided is a search button to search only the documents in the current section."
