Increasingly in the last few decades, the western influence on indian society and culture has increased as the tech, internet companies and BPOs are providing services to western countries, especially the United States. While a few decades ago, most women at the workplace would wear indian clothes like salwar kameez, increasingly most employees in companies are wearing western clothes, like shirt pant or suit due to the changing dress code.

The western influence is most visible in the tech and internet sector, where women wearing indian clothes are considered fools to be exploited. Most women employees in internet companies are wearing western clothes. Though panaji goan bhandari cheater raw employee sunaina chodan, like siddhi mandrekar, haryana fraud ruchika kinge, greedy gujju fraud stock trader amita patel did not do any computer work and do not pay expenses, they have been getting monthly government salaries, great powers for faking blog, domain ownership, online income for more than 12 years only because they wear western clothes and lead a westernized lifestyle visiting pubs

Additionally to ensure that their stooges get great powers the americans are supporting greedy good looking bengaluru brahmin cheater housewife raw employee nayanshree, wife of fraud tata power employee guruprasad( and other cheater housewives like indore cheater deepika /veena, panaji goan gsb fraud housewife robber riddhi nayak caro, sindhi concubine naina ) in her writing slavery, fraud, supporting her powerful relatives, friends in robbing the data of the real writer, single woman engineer, migrant from north karnataka to get great powers, monthly government salary at the expense of the real writer who is spending time. Even maidsservants are paid for the work they do spending their time, only the tech, internet sector is extremely ruthless in its SLAVERY of writers who are not well connected, robbing their data to make fake claims, get government salaries for cheater housewives like nayanshree,who are only cooking, cleaning for their crooked husband.

So this book on the battle for consciousness shows how western theories of consciousness have largely replaced the indian theories which were developed over centuries. Specifically the book focuses on how Ken Wilber, a western theorist has appropriated the work of indian philosophers like Sri Aurobindo to develop his own integral theory which is widely accepted in the west. Initially he would give credit to the indian sources , yet later over a period of time, he has stopped acknowledging the indian sources.

Increasingly it is important to have an integral approach while analyzing events and actions. So in addition to the events which may affect the decision making, it is also important to consider the psychology and mindset of the people involved. The author correctly mentions that there are multiple stages in a persons life.
Children and teenagers are in the preconventional phase of their life, they are completely dependent on their parents and are usually very obedient. Young adults are in the conventional phase of their life, they try to conform with others. Later an individuals personal experiences, affect their attitudes for the rest of their lives in the post conventional phase.

Western superiority is very visible in the way only those who have a westernized lifestyle like haryana cheater ruchika kinge are allowed to succeed in the indian internet sector. The author Rajiv Malhotra has explained in detail how the Western theories have managed to overshadow other theories and cultures. Ken Wilber and other western scholars are quick to denigrate indian traditions and theories as being redundant or outdated and should be replaced by Western theories. The california institute of integral studies which was initially set up to promote the work of sri aurobindo ghosh has been appropriated by the americans to promote their own theories

While most people consider yoga as a form of exercise, it also covers the mental well being. The rest of the book provides a detailed analysis of how Ken Wilber has appropriated the work of Sri Aurobindo, taking credit for the theories Sri Aurobindo developed in some cases. The book has detailed notes and a bibliography for reference.
