The Evolutionary Self

Integral Enlightenment (http://integralenlightenment.com) speaks of an "evolutionary self", describing it as "the creative force of the universe alive within us, the human face of the impulse of Evolution itself" and "the deepest part of who we are". In Advayavada Buddhism we follow the Path in order to reconcile ourselves with the Whole, to become "a true part of the Whole". There is a subtle difference. Reminds me of Murti's description of the difference between advaita and advaya; see: http://www.euronet.nl/~advaya/excerpts4.htm#murti
