More quotes by Sri Aurobindo
Man's freedom is relative and it cannot be held solely responsible for the imperfection of his nature.
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
No danger can perturb my spirit's calm.
Sri Aurobindo
In the normal play of our mind there are all sorts of perversions hence the need to stop all these things and inculcate right thinking, right willing - in other words, Truth must be established.
Sri Aurobindo
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
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
Sri Aurobindo
The all-embracing vast being which is there behind the play of the universe and with which you will have to identify yourself - for this is your true self.
Sri Aurobindo
Sin and virtue are a game of resistance we play with God in His efforts to draw us towards perfection.
Sri Aurobindo
There is no greater pride and glory than to be a perfect instrument of the Master.
Sri Aurobindo
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
There is nothing small in God's eyes let there be nothing small in thine
Sri Aurobindo
Nothing in the many processes of Nature, whether she deals with men or with things, comes by chance or accident or is really at the mercy of external causes.
Sri Aurobindo
Fear not to be nothing that thou mayst be all.
Sri Aurobindo
Hidden nature is secret God.
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
Spirituality is indeed the master-key of the Indian mind the sense of the infinitive is native to it.
Sri Aurobindo
There is nothing mind can do that cannot be better done in the mind's immobility and thought-free stillness. When mind is still, then truth gets her chance to be heard in the purity of the silence.
Sri Aurobindo
The supreme state of human love is...the unity of one soul in two bodies.
Sri Aurobindo
To listen to some devout people, one would imagine that God never laughs.
Sri Aurobindo
Man in the world's life works out the dreams of God.
Sri Aurobindo
