More quotes by Sri Aurobindo
The supreme state of human love is...the unity of one soul in two bodies.
Sri Aurobindo
To doubt the experience is to discourage it. Let it be developed, see what is in it.
Sri Aurobindo
There is therefore no reason to put a limit to evolutionary possibility by taking our present organization or status of existence as final. The animal is a laboratory in which Nature has worked out man man may very well be a laboratory in which she wills to work out superman, to disclose the soul as a divine being, to evolve a divine nature.
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
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
Late, I learned that when reason died, then Wisdom was born before that liberation, I had only knowledge.
Sri Aurobindo
To be free from all egoistic motive, careful of truth in speech and action, void of self-will and self-assertion, watchful in all things, is the condition for being a flawless servant.
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
Do not allow things to intrude from outside.
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
All desires and egoism will have to be banished from the being.
Sri Aurobindo
Those who have advanced rise to the mind which is in the head, - they have the play of their mental movements in the head itself. But all these are inside the body man is, as it were, shut up in a box, his entire consciousness is confined within the organism. This imprisonment has to be undone.
Sri Aurobindo
Arise, transcend Thyself, Thou art man and the whole nature of man Is to become more than himself.
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
My God is love and sweetly suffers all.
Sri Aurobindo
We cannot afford to raise any institution to the rank of a fetish. To do so would be simply to become the slaves of our own machinery.
Sri Aurobindo
Rather hang thyself than belong to the horde of successful imitators.
Sri Aurobindo
There are all kinds of people, and in the attempt to build up a solidarity among them, defects of each one affect all the others.
Sri Aurobindo
Love is the keynote, Joy is the music, Knowledge is the performer, the Infinite All is the composer and audience.
Sri Aurobindo
In the middle of an ocean on board a ship, one can get a sense of vastness.
Sri Aurobindo
