More quotes by Sri Aurobindo
The human mind moves always forward, alters its viewpoint and enlarges its thought substance, and the effect of these changes is to render past systems of thinking obsolete or, when they are preserved, to extend, to modify and subtly or visibly to alter their value.
Sri Aurobindo
The mind of an ordinary man is truly near the heart.
Sri Aurobindo
The mind is running on all sides to think about many things, - what we call thoughts coming from outside. We must withdraw the mind from these distractions and make it abide in the self. Thus guarding the peace within we shall have to do the work without.
Sri Aurobindo
The expression from above is for us only a way of speaking. Many receive from above the command for action - we call it intuition.
Sri Aurobindo
Our human knowledge is a candle burnt On a dim altar to a sun-vast Truth.
Sri Aurobindo
She saw too that man has the power of exceeding himself, of becoming himself more entirely and profoundly than he is, - truths which have only recently begun to be seen in Europe and seem even now too great for its common intelligence.
Sri Aurobindo
Delight is the secret. Learn of pure delight and thou shalt learn of God.
Sri Aurobindo
Impossibility is only a sum of greater unrealised possibles. It veils an advanced stage and a yet unaccomplished journey.
Sri Aurobindo
If it be true that spirit is involved in Matter and apparent Nature is secret God, then the manifestation in the divine in himself and the realization of God within and without are the highest and most legitimate aim possible to man on earth.
Sri Aurobindo
The highest aim of the aesthetic being is to find the Divine through beauty the highest Art is that which by an inspired use of significant and interpretative form unseals the door of the spirit.
Sri Aurobindo
Perfect health, sincerity, honesty, straightforwardness, courage, disinterestedness, unselfishness, patience, endurance, perseverance, peace, calm, self control are all things that are taught infinitely better by example than by beautiful speeches.
Sri Aurobindo
A hidden Bliss is at the root of things. A mute Delight regards Time's countless works: To house God's joy in things Space gave wide room, To house God's joy in self our souls were born.
Sri Aurobindo
Yes, it is difficult for man to cross beyond the idea of duty.
Sri Aurobindo
All that is born and destroyed is reborn in the sweep of the ages Life like a decimal ever recurring repeats the old figure.
Sri Aurobindo
Delight is the secret. Learn of pure delight and thou shalt learn of God. What then was the commencement of the whole matter? Existence that multiplied itself for sheer delight of being and plunged into numberless trillions of forms so that it might find itself innumerably.
Sri Aurobindo
To have a developed intellect is always helpful if one can enlighten it from above and turn it to a divine use.
Sri Aurobindo
The Force which has to be called down from above must be pure and quiet because there are all kinds of forces - it will not do to call them all. And one must have sincerity.
Sri Aurobindo
The supreme state of human love is...the unity of one soul in two bodies.
Sri Aurobindo
All desires and egoism will have to be banished from the being.
Sri Aurobindo
The navel region is the centre of the vital. It is from here that the movements of the vital rise upward. Above the navel and behind the chest is the centre of the play of emotions and below this takes place the play of the physical. Mulādhāra is the base of the physical. In between the Mulādhāra and the navel, there is another centre of the vital.
Sri Aurobindo
