Rigidity vs Plasticity

Mr. Garry Jacobs
Notes: 

Why is plasticity so important in Integral Yoga? Rigidity reflects the unconscious fixity, incapacity to change, inertia, tamas of Matter and lower consciousness. Plasticity is the quality of the spiritual and supramental consciousness which is infinitely capable of change and evolution. The Life Divine seeks to bring the infinite plasticity of Spirit even into the material physical form of supramental beings. Plasticity is essential to give manifest expression to the infinity variety and individuality of the evolving spirit.  All codes of conduct -- ethical, scientific, legal, moral, religious -- seek to impose rigid rules on the infinite uniqueness of spirit in life and all fail for that reason, which is why only the supramental truth consciousness fully possesses the knowledge needed in all situations.
