SUPRAMENTAL DECISION MAKING There is perhaps nothing more important than the decisions we make. Sri Aurobindo tells us that the best decisions come when we have the greatest knowledge of the conditions. He indicates that Mind that just views the surface information and facts garnered from the visual and audio sense will make very poor decisions. On the other hand, Mind that is rational and is open to suggestions will gather more of the necessary knowledge to make better decisions. Yet even these are highly fallible because what we perceive as being rational may not necessarily the truth, as we have many prejudicial viewpoints. Instead he asks us to come into Identity and Oneness with the Object of Knowledge of that situation. We can only begin that process through a Silent Mind, which creates silence of thought that enables true rational thinking. Further still are Intuitions of knowledge, where the Truths of the object come into our Mind without having to think at all. Best of all is supramental perception (Truth consciousness), where we are integrally one with the Knowledge required. Where we not only perceive each necessary part of knowledge, but how each part is related to each other, the Whole, as well as the Essence. It is supreme Knowledge by Identity, which gives us the vast integral knowledge of the situation, conditions, facts, etc. to make perfect decisions that lead to overwhelmingly beneficial outcomes. Moreover, the deeper we move within, the greeter our mind expands to these intuitional and supramental realms of spiritual Mind and Knowledge. And the more we Consecrate and offer the situations of our lives to the Mother, the deeper within our consciousness will originate.
