Summary: mental and spiritual consciousness. The evolution of man is a process of moving from the darkness of nescience to the light of true knowledge, from ignorance to wisdom, and from the limitations of the ego to the realization of the true self and the ultimate goal of spiritual transformation. Sri Aurobindo emphasizes the importance of transcending the ego and awakening to the divine presence within, which enables one to participate in the cosmic evolution and contribute to the creation of a new world guided by higher consciousness. Man's ambiguity is a result of being caught between the forces of Nature and the Spirit, but through self-reflection, conscious evolution, and alignment with the divine purpose, he can strive towards fulfilling his evolutionary potential and manifesting the true essence of his being.
