The New
Synthesis of Yoga
An Introdution
A Bird's Eye-View of the History of the Indian Synthesis of Yoga:
From the Veda to Sri Aurobindo
This book is addressed to all young people who,
I urge, will study and respond to the following
message of Sri Aurobindo:
"It is the young who must be the builders of the new world, —not those who accept the competitive individualism, the capitalism or the materialistic communism of the West as India ^future ideal, nor those who are enslaved to old religious formulas and cannot believe in the acceptance and transformation of life by the spirit, but all those who are free in mind and heart to accept a completer truth and labour for a greater ideal. They must be men who will dedicate themselves not to the past or the present but to the future. They will need to consecrate their lives to an acceding of their lower self, to the realisation of God in themselves and in all human beings and to a whole-minded and indefatigable labour for the nation and for humanity."
(Sri Aurobindo, 'The Supramental Manifestation Upon Earth7 Vol. 76, SABCL, p331)
