Through the screened dusk it deepened still and there neared Floating of many voices and the sound Of many feet, till on their sight broke in As if a coloured wave upon the eye The brilliant strenuous crowded days of man.

Attracted by the All that is the One
Attracted by the All that is the One,She yearns towards a higher light than hers;Hid by her cults and creeds she has glimpsed God’s face:She knows she has but found a form, a robe,But ever she hopes to see him in her heartAnd feel the body of his reality.Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book II, Canto X,Continue reading “Attracted by the All that is the One”
Sri Aurobindo, Letters on Yoga III
A throe that came and left a quivering trace,Gave room for an old tired want unfilled,At peace in its subconscient moonless caveTo raise its head and look for absent light,Straining closed eyes of vanished memory,Like one who searches for a bygone selfAnd only meets the corpse of his desire.It was as though even in thisContinue reading “Sri Aurobindo, Letters on Yoga III”
The Cosmic Coincidence: Sri Aurobindo’s Birthday on August 15

Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book II, Canto IV
It summons the spirit’s sleeping memoriesUp from subconscient depths beneath Time’s foam;Oblivious of their flame of happy truth,Arriving with heavy eyes that hardly see,They come disguised as feelings and desires,Like weeds upon the surface float awhileAnd rise and sink on a somnambulist tide.Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book II, Canto IV, pages 138-139. But, for this changeContinue reading “Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book II, Canto IV”
Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book VII, Canto VI
The brain’s vibrations that appear like thought,The nerve’s brief answer to each contact’s knock,The heart’s quiverings felt as joy and grief and loveWere twitchings of the body, their seeming self,That body forged from atoms and from gasA manufactured lie of Maya’s make,Its life a dream seen by the sleeping Void.Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book VII, CantoContinue reading “Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book VII, Canto VI”
Why Sri Aurobindo’s Vision Speaks Directly to Today

Savitri, Book I, Canto III, page 31
All now his bright clairaudience could receive;A contact thrilled of mighty unknown things.Awakened to new unearthly closenesses,The touch replied to subtle infinities,And with a silver cry of opening gatesSight’s lightnings leaped into the invisible.Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, Book I, Canto III, page 31 A first condition of the soul’s complete emergence is a direct contact inContinue reading “Savitri, Book I, Canto III, page 31”
