The Planes of Our Existence Part 3 with Sraddhalu Ranade continues the discussion of Chapter XIX from Sri Aurobindo's, "The Synthesis of Yoga". Here Sraddhalu reads from pages 448 and 449 and focuses on the underlying principles of what makes one world different from another world; with examples taken from the worlds created by William Shakespeare plays, compared to the Disney world of cartoons, compared to the world of knights and dragons, compared to the world of wizards and sorcerers, and many other examples. This chapter explains how the seven main planes of consciousness work and also how each one blends into the next. Sri Aurobindo says, "In Nature there are no wide gulfs, no abrupt chasms to be overleaped, but a melting of one plane into another, a subtle continuity." The original talk was presented on April 19, 2019 at Savitri Bhavan, Auroville, India. For the full version of the original talk go to: youtube.com/watch?v=g-UoZkl8-EI&t=1s
