How Integral is my child?

Our aim is raising children as Integral Sundersath (IS) who is aware of the fact that their Journey Towards Greatness involves four major practice areas: (1) Waking up (2) Growing up (3) Cleaning up and (4) Showing up. Specific examples of multi-dimensional awareness and capabilities include:

Aware of the need to get nourished with positive thoughts, emotions and ideas to be happy.
Able to think beyond their ego identity;
Capable and willing to take role of others;
Able to see any life challenge or phenomenon or situation with different perspectives by being aware of the four aspects of truth or reality (four quadrants-I, It, We and Its) which allows them to gain a holistic perspective of personal and collective experience, capturing the complex richness of reality through multiple lenses (awakening 4-D vision);
Aware of different types of intelligences which can be used to deal with all of life’s problems, allowing for overall growth, clear undistorted and imbalanced personality;
Aware of the fact that there are people with different types of personalities, masculine and feminine;
Aware of four different types of drives or inner natural (impulse) mechanisms with which one performs automatically without external motivation. Awareness of balancing the movement of drives in four directions: 1. upward (Eros): The self-organizing drive to higher wholes. 2. Downward (Agape): The drive to embrace already emerged lower wholes. 3. Left (Agency): The drive to be a whole on the present level. And 4. Right (Communion): The drive to be a part, to be in relationship on the present level.
Differentiate between small states of consciousness and large states of consciousness and aware of those states; List :
Aware of the constant need to clean up using the 3-2-1 shadow process. Shadow is trapped or repressed life energy that doesn’t let us develop and experience life fully. It can also encourage damaging addictions. An Integral person knows how shadow is formed, its impact, how it is formed. He is able to identify his own shadow, knows how best to reveal it so it can be transformed to his own advantage.
Aware of the need to share this positivity with others in a caring way;

Growing up

Growing up into genuine Fullness is the process of maturing and developing in various competencies, skills, and intelligences. It involves progressing through different stages of moral and cognitive development, ultimately leading to a more conscious, loving, and spiritually aware state of being. This includes moving from ego-centric and ethnocentric perspectives to world-centric and integral perspectives, as well as striving towards ultimate unity consciousness. It also involves recognizing the importance of considering development in addressing major societal issues and challenges. Growing up follows waking up because the process of discovering absolute truth and different states of consciousness is essential before the development and evolution of competencies and skills at various levels can occur.

Waking up

Waking up into radical Freedom (Jago) is the process of finding out who and what we really are in relation to the ultimate reality of Aksharateet. It includes arising of the direct and immediate awareness of the presence of the aura of Supreme Beloved Shri Rajji. This process deals with absolute truth and involves the discovery of different states of consciousness, such as gross waking, subtle dream, causal archetypal, empty witnessing, non-dual unity, and ultimately in supreme state of Swa-Lila-Adwait (Self-sporting pure Bliss). In this ultimate state, One Supreme Sat-Chid-Anand manifests as Paramdham and as many varieties of entities and beings. All these states are crucial in discovering absolute truth and are the means to wake up. Traditionally, main practices suggested include learning Tartam wisdom, selfless service, contemplation and meditation. However, waking up practice remains incomplete until the practices of Growing up, Cleaning up and Showing up mentioned below are also integrated with the traditional approaches. Each one of them have profound impact on integral Tartamic Awakening leading to Opening up, means living as love, being in love with others, and keep growing in universal love.

Aankha kohl tu aap apni, Jago jaagun jugat son …

Showing Up

Showing up into Full Functioning involves showing up with our unique gifts to ourselves and to the world. The most effective way to show up is to be able to take multiple perspectives and understand that in addition to different perspectives, there are different dimensions to every situation. The best way to show up is to look at the world at least through four different perspectives or lenses: interior individual (I), interior collective (WE), exterior individual (IT), and exterior collective (ITS). These four quadrants of truth or reality provides a framework that lays the foundation for a multidimensional understanding of ourselves and the world we inhabit. They help us understand the nested hierarchy of the entire universe in its many dimensions. Also, quadrants enable us to see precisely how various sciences and various types of spirituality are related.

Cleaning up

Cleaning up into real Flourishing involves addressing and working through our growth obstructing trapped life energy called shadow which we all create unknowingly and which causes emotional imbalance. Our shadow can be our internal resistance to challenge our own self-defeating beliefs, opinions, certain traits or behaviors. Shadow can even resist working on restoring our emotional balance. So, cleaning up is needed at all different levels of development and everyone needs it. By practicing shadow work, we can follow our unique shadow back to our unique self. This is similar to the practice of transforming vices (Avgun) to virtues (Guna) in Tartam Vani. Simple cleaning up technique involves practicing this shadow process: (1) Spotting it - acknowledging our repressed life energy such as dark side, allergy or addiction to thing or person, which is trapped in layers deep beneath our conscious personality, (2) Facing it – daring to bring it in our awareness and right in front of you, (3) Talking to it - expressing yourself to it, noticing that you are listened to deeply, asking the listener how the interaction was felt, explaining what you felt and why, and (4) Being one with it – discover that you are what you like and dislike. Cleaning up may also involve the use of affirmations and shadow negations to transcend and let go of unconscious patterns and open up space for personal growth and self-actualization.
