Lectures on Intuitive Category Theory : Synthesis through Symmetry

This week I delivered two lectures on Category Theory to quantum physics students in Indian Institute of Technology Tirupati.

I designed the lectures in an intuitive fashion where abstract is experienced deeply using higher or innermost consciousness (Manas-Buddhi principle of Theosophy corresponding to  Intuitive and Ilumined mind principle of Integral yoga of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother). 

I started from a group since its the most abstract and familiar mathematical object known to physics and Engineering students. As far as I know to this date category axioms are never generalized in this way.

The lectures slides are here (the videos I will post on YouTube shortly) - 

Presentation_Intuitive Category Theory

I am working on combining and designing materials on something called Wisdom of Synthesis (a term coined by Lucille Cedercrans). Synthesis i have intuited after searching since 2007, is how the new coming race (sixth root race of Blavatsky, New age race of Bailey and Grothendieck, Supramental race by Sri Aurobindo) will look at the universe. Note that currently we see everything as disconnected parts and its at the root of our conflicts and disconnection from the Nature.

It will comprise of following pillars as drawn on my board -

1. Theosophy - Synthesis of Esoteric Religions

2. Integral Yoga (of Sri Aurobindo) - Synthesis of Yoga

3. Category Theory - Synthesis of Mathematics

4. Permaculture - Synthesis of Agriculture

5. Psychosynthesis - Synthesis of Psychology

6. Functorial Signal Rep - Synthesis of Signal Processing

Welcome to the Supramental Age of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother proceeding slowly to manifest !!

Third Initiation : Disciple and Mental Body

 We studied initiations until the second in our ealier posts. Today let us look at the third especially from the perspective of a disciple (rather than the ray as well as the external ceremonial aspect conferred during the wesak full moon which we will cover later). The third initiation marks the culmination of complete mastery of the mental (in the same way that the earlier two initiations resulted into the control of physical and astral planes). It is a distinct initiation, which marks a definite transition out of the form consciousness (lower personality of mental, emotional(astral) and physical planes), and the initiate can function at will on the plane of the intuition though soul (ego). Between the second and third initiation work is struggling with and mastering the energies of the mental world. What kind of work ? DK sums that for us (details found in TWM book) as -  "A. Work on the mental plane produces realisation of duality. The disciple seeks to blend and merge the...

Aphorisms as seed-thoughts

 Subsequent to our discussion on seed-thoughts, another great example of seed-thouht I think is an aphorism. The complete agni-yoga series of books by Roerichs are aphorisms of Ethical living (and give Ray 1 flavour of fiery will to the yoga of synthesis). Similarly the temple aphorisms of Francia A. La Due give a Ray 5 flavour of occult science to the works of H.P. Blavatsky and William Q. Judge. We quote those aphorims (as seed-thoughts) from temple teachings of Master H. (with his image):  "Days come and days go, but if thou watchest thou shalt see: THE LOAD thou hast laid on the heart of a friend will God transfer to thine own heart; heavy as it presses on the heart of thy friend, heavier will it press on thine own heart in the days to come. THE STONE thou hast cast from the path of the blind will smite the adder lying in wait for thee. THE WEIGHT thou hast clamped on the feet of another will drag thine own feet into Hadean desolation. THE SHELTER thou hast given the wayfa...

The Twelves of the Inner Ashram of Vicente Beltran Anglada

 The 'Inner Chamber of the Matrimandir Auroville' as seen by 'The Mother' in her inner visions and manifested at Auroville today is illustrated using a real concrete ashram of Vicente Beltran Anglada. The apparent simplicity of many initiates and disciples deprives the overly intellectualised mind of this natural recognition. They are too humble and never boast about their inner association with ashrams. A few, such as 'B', even begged VBA not to mention his details in the writings since he is very well known socially and did not want any indication to identify him from near or far. The composition of a second-ray sub-ashram was disclosed: 1 B. Relatively young; he is an excellent writer North American 2 C. Catholic missionary, mentioned in the South American “Knowledge” magazine from March 1970. Because he died after the festival of Wesak 1971 his square in the Ashrama was automatically occupied by Di...a South American disciple who since For many years she had...
