Patrick Beldiors"s creative and pioneering study, The Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram: Co-Creator of the Integral Yoga , examines the various ways that Mirra Alfassa helped to shape, and further develop, the Integral Yoga tradition inaugurated by Sri Aurobindo. Combining scholarly acumen with a disarmingly personal approach, the book breaks new ground in our understanding of the spiritual and philosophical contours of Integral Yoga and provides an urgently needed corrective to the tendency in scholarship to emphasize Aurobindo at the expense of the Mother., "Patrick Beldio's creative and pioneering study, The Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram: Co-Creator of the Integral Yoga , examines the various ways that Mirra Alfassa helped to shape, and further develop, the Integral Yoga tradition inaugurated by Sri Aurobindo.

He highlights certain synergies with respect to their visions of the transfiguration of humanity and also delineates certain clarifications and amplifications developed by Mirra. Sketching the distinctiveness of Mirra's search on yogic and aesthetic pathways, Beldio correlates it to some contemporary quests for truth in contexts of religious diversity. Through Beldio's sagely guidance, the reader is directed towards landscapes of Integral Yoga animated by the power of the divine feminine." --Ankur Barua, Cambridge University "The Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram is a welcome and needed addition to the library of Aurobindo studies, as Patrick Beldio gently but insistently restores to Mother Mirra Alfassa her rightful place in the story of the integral yoga. We are shown too a panoramic view of the remarkable community of spiritual masters east and west to which Mirra and Aurobindo truly belong. Indeed, Beldio himself turns out to be not just an observer but a welcome participant -- pilgrim, artist -- in the spiritual awakening of our times." --Francis X. Clooney, SJ, Harvard Divinity School "This original study offers significant new research and insights into an often-overlooked figure.

Synopsis
This groundbreaking book in comparative theology analyzes the contributions of the Mother to the Integral Yoga that she and Sri Aurobindo co-created. The book reveals important ways that she both fulfilled and changed his initial vision that are based on her experiences of what they called the "Supermind.", The Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram: Co-Creator of the Integral Yoga analyzes the contributions of the Mother (née Mirra Alfassa, 1878-1973) to the Integral Yoga that she and Sri Aurobindo (né Aurobindo Ghose, 1872-1950) co-created for his ashram. Scholars have ignored Mirra for Aurobindo, which prevents a full understanding of their spiritual practice. Scholars have also avoided examining work Aurobindo produced after they began their partnership in 1920 until his death in 1950, and privileged the written output in his journal Arya from 1914 to 1921. In this initial fertile period, he put forth his innovative teaching about what he called the "Supermind," an emergent human faculty that he said would manifest a new humanity and a new earth through Mirra's body. Mirra claimed that after his death in 1956 this manifestation happened as he foretold. Mirra's work in the ashram from his death until hers in 1973 reveals important ways that she both fulfilled and changed Aurobindo's initial vision. These developments are chiefly based on her experiences of mental dissolution while her body gained a new supramental form and consciousness., The Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram: Co-Creator of the Integral Yoga analyzes the contributions of the Mother (nee Mirra Alfassa, 1878-1973) to the Integral Yoga that she and Sri Aurobindo (ne Aurobindo Ghose, 1872-1950) co-created for his ashram.
