(Now reprinted with the entire content comprised in 2 volumes) Talks with Sri Aurobindo is a thousand-page record of Sri Aurobindo's conversations with the disciples who attended to him during the last twelve years of his life. The talks are informal and open-ended, for the attendants were free to ask whatever questions came to mind. Sri Aurobindo speaks of his own life and work, of the Mother and the Ashram, of his path of Yoga and other paths, of India's social, cultural and spiritual life, of the country's struggle for political independence, of Hitler and the Second World War, of modern science, art and poetry, and of many other things that arose in the course of conversation. Serious discussion is balanced with light-hearted banter and humour. By recording these human touches, Nirodbaran has brought out the warm and intimate atmosphere of the talks.
Since 1980, Shraddhavan has been teaching English in Auroville through close readings of Sri Aurobindo’s revelatory epic Savitri: a legend and a symbol. In August 1998 these classes were resumed at Savitri Bhavan, with a growing number of students, including young Tamil teacher-trainees from the Arul Vazhi School located in Promesse, Auroville. These classes were given the name ‘The English of Savitri’ and they concluded in May of 2009 as this group reached the end of the poem. This book is based on the transcripts of a new series of classes given by Shraddhavan between August 2009 and October 2010, which have been edited for conciseness and clarity, while aiming to preserve some of the informal atmosphere of the course. Edited transcripts of these classes began to be published serially in the Bhavan’s journal of Study Notes on Savitri, ‘Invocation’, from issue 32 onwards, since it was felt that they may be of interest to a wider audiance. They are now being published in book form in several volumes by Yukta Prakashan publishers of Vadodara. This suggested the idea of collecting the original English articles into a book form as well. This is the first such volume, covering all the five cantos of Book One of the poem, ‘The Book of Beginnings’.
Sri Aurobindo’s magnum opus, The Life Divine, is considered to be one of the premier philosophical expositions, covering the meaning and significance of human life, the role of the individual and the structure and operation of the universal creation. In its more than 1000 pages, a wide variety of themes and subjects have been covered. Sri M.P. Pandit was secretary to the Mother of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram and a long-time disciple, prolific author and exponent of Sri Aurobindo’s teachings. These talks were given to introduce various topics covered in The Life Divine, during the year 1977 at the author’s residence.
This book covers a twenty year period from 1923 to 1943. It offers us a precious glimpse of Sri Aurobindo's external personality and gives some idea of his richness, many-sidedness and uniqueness. His versatile genius, penetrating intellect, extraordinary power of expression, intense sincerity, sense of realism, and understanding of world events in political, social and cultural spheres are also displayed.
Between 1927 and 1950, Sri Aurobindo--one of the foremost Indian philosophersof the 20th century--perfected a new kind of spiritual practice he called the"Integral Yoga." This volume brings together a comprehensive selection of SriAurobindo's letters pertaining to the practice of this discipline.
Evening Talks is A.B. Purani's record of informal conversations between Sri Aurobindo and his disciples during two periods: 1923-1926, when the talks were held on the verandahs of the houses in which Sri Aurobindo stayed, and 1938-1943, when they took place in Sri Aurobindo's room. The talks cover a wide range of topics-yoga, philosophy, art, poetry, psychology, science, and contemporary history, notably India's struggle for independence and the Second World War. They reveal something of the versatile nature of Sri Aurobindo's personality and his wide-ranging, profound knowledge of life as well as a glimpse of the heights of spiritual consciousness he embodied and through which he acted on both world events and on the natures of those drawn to his yoga.
This book chronicles an early period of Sri Aurobindo's life, a period of service, & a preparation for the later phases in Calcutta & Pondicherry.
