PLAN / CONCEPTION / INTENTIONS

as mentioned in L001.000 the aim of this project will be hopefully to put up on Youtube the topics that I cover in audio-Lecture format. The list of topics is listed below (in the next section).

why do this lecture-series at all? ::: There are numerous reasons, some of which are listed in 001.000. others include personal merits for myself, especially obvious ones being the merit of reading, collecting, sorting, contemplation and writing the exegesis on the topic is beneficial in numerous ways. Plus then reading that outloud is further studying of an ideally valuable lecture, which will often be ideally primarily quotations with minor exegesis. Then having those lectures so they can be listened to when needing aid of a particular sort, or for a reminder on a particular topic or subject. then there are numerous other personal benefits such as potential for advertising my site. But there are various other benefits for others that dont necessarily apply for myself, such as it acting as a introduction to Integral Yoga, but that is always a great honor when it is sincerely appreciated. Similarly hopefully I can introduce other sages aswell, another honor. The major of all benefits of all types comes from the fact that the subject of all the topics is the works of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, and thus the fact of their being itself. That the earth was graced with such prolific consciousnesses.
How reassuring! Anyways any and all interaction with their works for those who are open and ready is a wonderous blessing. Any excuse to spend more time with them.

where is listed the aim? I guess the reason for being is directly above, the sharing and working with the splendor of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, is the best work I can think of. I fear dogmatism, but I admit hundreds and perhaps thousands of truly brilliant expressions. (People). And still I admit I have only scratched the surface, and I do continue to search for more. Plus surely there are many (if not mostly) that I am not yet ready for, for various reasons across various subjects.

how to do this lecture series? (the aim) ::: the goal with this has been partially expressed all through-out this blockquote, from top to bottom and perhaps 001.000. ... method what or method how?

PLAN-STRUCTURE-LAYOUT
perhaps a typical topical lecture will have a similar layout:

plan / conception / intentions / why this page
[notes / questions]
definitions (see Savitri)
list of elements
merits / value / importance / why important
method / what
method / how / conditions / procedure
limitations
unsorted important
related, see more,

- I imagine I have a page for this meta structure analysis. see templates.

it makes sense to do the ones first that will aid with the work itself.
any potential entries that may aid success of this endeavour ::: aspiration, success, consecration, sincerity, Faith, trust, hope, patience, rejection,


- it is possible to turn some of them into audio, as they currently are, and then they can be listened to and adjusted dog food style.
- alternatively I could read a book like the sunlit path, or pages from the mothers works. the supramental ship etc. though I can see merits in the more strenuous aim of writing the lecture, I have been considering firstly for some time just reading through any of the collected works, especially Savitri.
- it would be good however to read any of it outloud and to work on my speechcraft as if I am to do much audio work I will have to cultivate a beautiful voice and the capacity to express as fully as possible the truth, with as little.. obscuration or deformation as possible, clean and beautiful translation, perhaps musical at times. But primacy seems accessibleness. Ease of use. No obstacles between the message and receiver. Though no need to aim only so low, as there is potential for miracle.

LIST OF TOPICS AND POTENTIALS

--- FIRST POTENTIALS
--- POTENTIAL
Satchitananda, Brahman, God, the Divine
Consciousness-Force
Karma Yoga ::: The Path of Works [Karma Yoga] aims at the dedication of every human activity to the supreme Will. ... The end of the path may be, equally, a perception of the divine in all energies, in all happenings, in all activities, and a free and unegoistic participation of the soul in the cosmic action. So followed it will lead to the elevation of all human will and activity to the divine level, its spiritualisation and the justification of the cosmic labour towards freedom, power and perfection in the human being.
consecration ::: 1. One can give not only ones soul, but all ones powers to the Divine. - 2. Our persistent consecration turns into knowledge of him all our knowing and into light of his power all our action.
Offering
equality
aspiration & dryness ::: Aspiration is a turning upward of the inner being with a call, yearning, prayer for the Divine, for the Truth, for the Consciousness, Peace, Ananda, Knowledge, descent of Divine Force or whatever else is the aim of one's endeavour.
Concentration & diffusion ::: It is to bring back all the scattered threads of consciousness to a single point, a single idea. Those who can attain a perfect attention succeed in everything they undertake; they will always make rapid progress. And this kind of concentration can be developed exactly like the muscles; one may follow different systems, different methods of training. Today we know that the most pitiful weakling, for example, can with discipline become as strong as anyone else. One should not have a will that flickers out like a candle. The will, the concentration must be cultivated; it is a question of method, of regular exercise. If you will, you can. But the thought Whats the use? must not come in to weaken the will. The idea that one is born with a certain character and can do nothing about it is a stupidity. ~ The Mother, Questions And Answers 1950-1951
the Divine Will
the Worlds
the Light & Darkness
Sincerity & insincerity
faith & doubt ::: Once a person has faith, he has achieved everything.
hope ::: One must never lose hope or faith - there is nothing incurable, and no limit can be set to the power of the Divine.
need ::: Purification and consecration are two great necessities of sadhana.
