Abstract
Sri Aurobindo’s integral psychology is built, in large part, around a deep exploration of the relationship between Purusha (or pure consciousness) and Prakriti (the dynamic manifestation of consciousness). In this lecture, we will examine the meaning of these two crucial ideas, and we will investigate their usefulness in the context of clinical practice.
