<div style="color:#000000;">''the capacity to take up all experiences and organise them around the Psychic centre''</div>What is Individualisation =

<div style="color:#000000;">The first state of one’s being is a state of an almost total mixture with all things from outside. Here there is almost no individualisation, that is, specialisation which makes one a unique being. One is moved by all the common universal forces, vital forces or mental forces, which act through one’s form. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/07/14-december-1955#p18</divref>

<span style="background-color:#ffff00;color:#000000;">Individualisation, This is a stage of mental individualisation where one gains the capacity for original thought and creativity and develops the capacity to take up all experiences influence and organise them around impact the divine centre</span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">surrounding mass consciousness. </span><span style="background-color:#c9daf8;color:#000000;">One must organise what one calls "oneself" around However, this ego individuality is still not the psychic centretrue individual, so that it would make is only a singlesurface person, coherent, fully conscious beinglargely a mental construct.</span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;"> </span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">As It is quite possible to get stuck at this divine centre stage and that is itself already consecrated entirely to when one feels more and more disconnected with oneself. One gets isolated from the larger social life as well as the Divine, if everything is organised harmoniously around Nature and struggles against them for control and mastery. In its excessive development it, everything is consecrated become aggressive or leads to the Divinedeep sense of loneliness and depression. When the Divine thinks Often, it proper and when the work of individualisation is complete, then one has the permission begins to merge look for one’s ego in Divine Consciousness and to live henceforward only for the Divinetrue individuality.</span>

<span style=It is the step before surrendering the ego. One can't merge one's ego in the Divine before becoming completely individualised. To be able to give oneself, to surrender, one must first exist, and to exist one must be individualised.

It is impossible, even if one isolates oneself physically, to do so vitally and mentally.</span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;"> </span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">There is the vast terrestrial atmosphere incarnateword.in which one is born, and there is a sort of spirit or genius of the human race</span><span style="background-color:#ffff00;color:#000000;">. This genius must have reached a certain degree of perfection for anyone to be able to go farther<cwm/06/span><span style="background22-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">.</span><span style="backgroundseptember-color:1954#ffffff;color:#000000;"> p42</spanref>

<span style="background-color:#ffff00;color:#000000;">And yet even our individualisation ‘genius’ is only a superficial formation, the surface world-being.

<div style="color:#000000;">A stage comes by the increasing manifestation of the DivineThe more conscious and individualised one becomes, the Ishwara, in all one’s being and actionmore one begins to think that one is here not without reason or without purpose. This One realises suddenly that one is when one here because there is constantly something to be done and uninterruptedly aware of Him. The Divine this something is felt in one’s self as the possessor of one’s being and the ruler of all its workingsnot anything egoistic. All of one’s consciousness is His consciousnessOnce one knows a little, all knowledge is His knowledgeone can find their own method, all thoughts are His thoughtS, all of one’s will is His will, all feelings are His Ananda if one has the genius for it! But first one must stand on one's own feet and forms of His delight in beingknow how to walk. Therefore, all of one’s actions are His actionsone needs education. This An individualised mind is the highest realisation of the perfection extremely rare, and delight of the active oneness; for beyond it there could be comes only the consciousness of the Avatara, the Ishwara Himself assuming after a human name and form for action long education. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/24-march-1951#p31</ref><ref>http://incarnateword.in the Lila/cwm/06/28-july-1954#p59</ref><ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/09/20-february-1957#p6</divref>

<span style="background-color:#ffff00;color:#000000;">The From an integral yoga perspective, the Psychic is the true support of our individualisation; the ego is only an outward false substitute</span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">. The psychic is the secret soul that supports and holds </span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">together one’s self-experience and world-experience. The mental, vital, physical, external ego is a superficial construction of Nature. It is only when one has seen both one’s self and nature as a whole, in the depths as well as on the surface, that one can acquire a true basis of knowledge.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/21/span><span style="backgroundmemory-ego-and-self-color:experience#ffffff;color:#000000;"> p15</spanref>

<span style="background-color:#ffff00;color:#000000;">The psychic being at its origin is only a spark of the divine consciousness and it is through successive lives that it builds up a conscious individuality.</span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;"> </span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">It is a progress similar to that of a growing child. For a long time, in most human beings the psychic is a being in the making. </span><span style="background-color:#ffff00;color:#000000;">It is not a fully individualised, fully conscious being and master of itself and it needs all its rebirths, one after another, in order to build itself and become fully conscious.</span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;"> </span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">But this sort of progress has an end. There comes a time when the being is fully developed, fully individualised, fully master of itself and its destiny. When this being has reached that stage and takes birth in a human being, that makes a very great difference: the human being, so to say, is born free. The being is not tied to circumstances, to surroundings, to one’s origin and atavism, like ordinary people. The being comes into the world with the purpose of doing something, with a work to carry out and a mission to fulfill. From this point of view such a person’s progress in growth has come to an end, that is, it is not indispensable for them to take birth again in a body. </span><span style="background-color:#ffff00;color:#000000;">Till then rebirth is a necessity, for it is through rebirth that one grows; it is in the physical life and in a physical body that one gradually develops and becomes a fully conscious being.</span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;"> </span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">But once one is fully formed, one is free, in this sense that one can take birth or not, at will.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/05/5-august-1953#p2</ref><ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/05/5-august-1953#p3</spanref>   '''Content curated by Naveen Vasudevan''' {|class="wikitable" style= "background-color: #efefff; width: 100%;"|Read more about '''[[Individualisation Compilation|Individualisation]]''' from the works of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. |} ==References==
