The Hierarchy of Minds

More about the book

What we call 'mind' comprises in reality much more than our faculties of reason and imagination. It involves a complex gradation of powers, many of which are outside our conscious perception but which influence our surface mental activity. Sri Aurobindo has spoken at length throughout his writings about the five minds of man and the corresponding minds in the universe. This book puts forward Sri Aurobindo's views on man's consciousness in relation to the mind, its various levels and functions within the body consciousness and also its potential to transcend the body consciousness.
