Towards Integral Education Portal’s First Birthday
Integral Education was developed by the Mother and Sri Aurobindo to prepare humanity for an evolutionary transformation to embody a divine consciousness and divine life upon earth. We are forming a community of integral education practitioners to learn from each other and grow together. This is the Integral Education Portal. Join us if you are inspired!
For the past year, from August 15th, 2020, each month was dedicated to a particular theme or topic. We shared content twice a week - a short and sweet descriptive text along with a video on the topic was shared on Mondays, and a Practice of the Week was shared on Thursdays for readers to experience the essence of the topic. The content shared is in simple words that can be understood by all and takes less than ten minutes to consume.
The Integral Education Portal was born on August 15th, 2020, which coincides with India’s Independence Day and Sri Aurobindo’s birthday. As we complete a year, we would like to share a snapshot of each topic that was covered. From August 1st, 2021 to August 15th, 2021 we are sharing one summary each day, which briefly touches on the key points of one topic that was covered.
Please do read, reflect, feel and share your experiences and practices that have worked for you. Click here to read the newsletter. Stay tuned for the first summary on Gratitude, which releases on Monday, 3rd August, 2021.
