This reflection is on a writing of Sri Aurobindo where he pays tribute to Hirobumi Ito, the prime minister of Japan who was assassinated in 1909.

In this reflection we look at the difference between suggestions of different kind and intuition.

In this reflection we see the two conquests one can make in life. We take five stories: ‘Alexander and Diogenes’, ‘Sheikh Sadi’, ‘King Asoka and Buddha’ and ‘Master Archer of a Zen story’, and the example of Krishna and Shiva.

We look at what the plasticity is and its importance on the path.

The problem of sensitivity and suffering.

We look at different stages of the psychic transformation.

We reflect whether joining the Ashram implies having a developed psychic being.

In this brief reflection we see how the psychic being can develop through different paths.

We look at the process and signs of emergence of the psychic being.

We look at the difference between the soul and psychic being, and growth of the psychic being through lives.
