Yogic insights into human psychology

By Alok Pandey - Apr 24, 2021

Our experience, perception and response to life are limited by our state of consciousness. While we invest much time and energy in changing the world around us yoga reveals that the first step to change anything is to change ourselves within. While the change of consciousness has always been considered as the penultimate aim of yoga, the question remains as to how far this change can go. Can it, for example, go as far as creating a new humanity out of the old, a new species perhaps with new faculties and who knows eventually even the transmutation of the body into a new divine body? This article touches upon this aspect of yoga as part of the general spiritual evolution of man.
