More quotes by Sri Aurobindo
The supreme state of human love is...the unity of one soul in two bodies.
Sri Aurobindo
Yes, it is difficult for man to cross beyond the idea of duty.
Sri Aurobindo
Knowledge gropes but meets not Wisdom's face.
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
Live within be not shaken by outward happenings.
Sri Aurobindo
The desire of your vital being is towards work. And the vital being won't find any interest in yoga so long as you do not have any experience of the higher and fuller life that is in yoga. As long as this experience is not there, the vital being will not find any interest.
Sri Aurobindo
When Reason died, then Wisdom was born.
Sri Aurobindo
The yogin becomes aware in part of the action of the supramental power organizing the lower vehicle (ādhāra). A part of it remains behind the veil and prepares itself.
Sri Aurobindo
Do not belong to the past dawns,but to the noons of future
Sri Aurobindo
One who loves God finds the object of his love everywhere.
Sri Aurobindo
To feed death with her works is here life's doom.
Sri Aurobindo
As in all infant sciences, the universal habit of the human mind - to take a partial or local truth, generalise it unduly and try to explain a whole field of nature in its narrow terms - runs riot here (in psychoanalysis). Moreover, the exaggeration of the importance of suppressed sexual complexes is a dangerous falsehood.
Sri Aurobindo
Spirituality is indeed the master-key of the Indian mind the sense of the infinitive is native to it.
Sri Aurobindo
The mind of an ordinary man is truly near the heart.
Sri Aurobindo
Arise, transcend Thyself, Thou art man and the whole nature of man Is to become more than himself.
Sri Aurobindo
The language of the Veda itself is sruti, a rhythm not composed by the intellect but heard, a divine Word that same vibrating out of the Infinite to the inner audience of the man who had previously made himself fit fot the impersonal knowledge.
Sri Aurobindo
Samskrit language, as has been universally recognized by those competent to form a judgment, is one of the most magnificent, the most perfect, the most prominent and wonderfully sufficient literary instrument developed by the human mind.
Sri Aurobindo
What is required is faith. Man has body, life and mind but that is not all that constitutes man. He has risen to the mind as a result of evolution. Now a higher consciousness will be evolved - this I call Supermind. It is the instrument of the Divine Consciousness, the Truth-Consciousness.
Sri Aurobindo
I swore that I would not suffer from the world's grief and the world's stupidity and cruelty and injustice and I made my heart as hard in endurance as the nether millstone and my mind as a polished surface of steel. I no longer suffered, but enjoyment had passed away from me.
Sri Aurobindo
The business of both parent and teacher is to enable and to help the child to educate himself, to develop his own intellectual, moral, aesthetic and practical capacities and to grow freely as an organic being, not to be kneaded and pressured into form like an inert plastic material
