Late, I learned that when reason died, then Wisdom was born before that liberation, I had only knowledge.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
The cup has to be left clean and empty for the divine liquor to be poured into it.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
The supreme end is the freedom of the spirit.
Sri Aurobindo

Fear not to be nothing that thou mayst be all.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
An active mind needs an outlet. If it stops by itself from within, well and good otherwise one should not try to stop this by force.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
All kinds of indications will come from above and whatever you do must be referred to the Above.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
The first and the most important thing is to know that life is one and immortal. Only the forms, countless in number, are transient and brittle. The life everlasting is independent of any form but manifests itself in all forms. Life then does not die... but the forms are dissolved.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
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
Image
All desires and egoism will have to be banished from the being.
Sri Aurobindo

Trust the divine power, and she will free the godlike elements in you and shape all into an expression of divine nature.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Remember that you are at an exceptional hour in a unique epoch, that you have this great happiness, this invaluable privilege, of being present at the birth of a new world.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Ourselves within us lethal forces nurse We make of our own enemies our guests.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
The spiritual path is one of falling on your face, getting up, brushing yourself off, turning and looking sheepishly at God and then taking the next step.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
You have a strong active nature. And this in you is a point of strength. If you can mould it rightly this will become a very great strength. On the other hand, this too is your weak point - a hindrance in sadhana.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Arise, transcend Thyself, Thou art man and the whole nature of man Is to become more than himself.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Only the soul that is naked and unashamed, can be pure and innocent , even as Adam was in the primal garden of humanity .
Sri Aurobindo
Image
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
Image
Hidden nature is secret God.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Everyone has in him something divine, something his own, a chance of perfection and strength in however small a sphere which God offers him to take or refuse. The task is to find it, develop it & use it. The chief aim of education should be to help the growing soul to draw out that in itself which is best and make it perfect for a noble use.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
The existence of poverty is the proof of an unjust and ill-organised society, and our public charities are but the first tardy awakening in the conscience of a robber.
