This workbook is in two parts. The first, "Self-Preparation", is "to help all those who want to take the first steps in integrating spirituality in everyday life" and for those "who would like to intensify the search for the psychic being". The second part, primarily though not exclusively for teachers and teacher educators, deals with the theme of Integral Education – education centred around the soul, as distinct from holistic education where the soul is just one of the areas of concentration." Numerous exercises are included, based on those the Mother herself gave during her questions and answers sessions. Worksheets and checklists to assist and assess one's progress are provided.

It is an indispensable reading for teachers and educationists who have a willingness to go beyond the narrow utilitarian aims of present day education.

This book presents an experiential way to enhance concentration, relaxation and self-knowledge in children and adults. Recommended for teachers and teacher educators, preferable as a reference book after attending the sessions by an awareness facilitator not as a book of self- practice.

This book provides a glimpse into the educational environment of Mirambika, a school situated on the campus of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram–Delhi Branch. It follows a free progress learning system based on the ideas of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, who said that education should help children to develop their entire nature—physical, vital, mental, psychic, and spiritual. The text, photographs, and illustrations all help to show the day-to-day implementation of the self-observation and reflective practices used with the children, whose ages range from three to twelve. It includes remarks, reflections, and observations from the children, the teachers, and a few of the parents. It is recommended for teachers and teacher educators.

This book is an outcome of the study taken up by NCERT between 1995-97, to understand how the process of learning in Mirambika - Free Progress school  helps the children to adjust themselves in all ways to the regular system of education in other schools and what the process of transfer entails. During the study the NCERT team discovered the various strengths of the 'project work approach' and how it helped the learner assimilate in all systems of learning very confidently with relation to developing a reasoning and questioning mind.  They also had interactions with the alumni which made them understand that to all those who passed out from that school, the school was 'a way of life' that helped them to know themselves better in a free but guided environment. 

This book is recommended for educationists and teacher trainers.

Learning through Project–A Handbook, by Mirambika team    

This is a companion volume to the above .

A gem of a book which lists various interesting learning cum physical skill development games for children from the ages of 4 to 12. These games are even good for adults to play when they are together in a large group. The book has use for student teachers and practicing teachers.

The approach in this book is the essence of Integral Education’s approach to physical development. In a healthy and flexible body dwells a mind which has the power to discern and change. This book explains in detail how the activities can be organised in a school, what the different physical activities achieve and how the choice of activity determines the extent of development expected for each child. Recommended for teachers, teacher trainers, parents, and physical educators.

This book is a loving effort made by a group of 11 year old children with the help of their teachers to study the trees, creepers, shrubs and seasonal flowers growing in the Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Delhi branch. These children were surrounded by plants, trees and flowers – some even creeping into their classrooms and they felt naturally drawn towards them. They strung the flowers and leaves together, wore them around their necks, gave these a name, ate their fruit, used these for decorations, climbed their branches, enjoyed the squirrels, ants and the birds, found their nests and learnt about how they bring up their young. In the course of this journey, the children began to love the trees as much as the trees and flowers bore a silent witness to their activities. In what began as a simple project on plants, slowly widened in its scope and the children spent several months observing, gardening, learning in-depth about this gift of Nature. This book and everything in it is their own and they present it proudly to all of us.

How often do we open our hearts and minds to Nature and her beautiful treasures? A labour of love of a small group of children aged 12+ may help us to do so! These children chose to befriend birds, in the beginning, simply observing them. They realised that just like them, birds too have a world of their own, where they can talk, fly, eat, sleep, sing, dance and do everything together with happiness and joy. They accept love and care from other beings who can offer them true friendship. Enchanted by their beauty and brilliance, the children spent many hours, days and months walking around the Ashram (Sri Aurobindo Ashram-Delhi Branch), visiting sanctuaries and parks, spotting and identifying the birds, listening to their calls and trying to make sense of their moods and behaviours. This they did lovingly for over 60 species of birds. The illustrations, poems and pictures reveal the beautiful friendship between the two. This book is offered by the children as a field guide to anyone who may feel drawn to these feathered friends.
