- Summary:
- Sri Aurobindo represents a synthesis of the teachings of both the West and the East. Not content simply with dissolution into a transcendental, other-worldly God-consciousness, nor with concentration on the outer life and its powers to the exclusion of anything other or higher, Sri Aurobindo has created the teachings of a Divine Life on Earth.
- We feel swept into a movement of accelerated evolution. All structures of the modern world are changing fast. More new problems arise from advances in science and technology than can be solved. Man's mind cannot keep up with the movement he has created. The aspirations of man reveal other possibilities. This book is an anthology of Sri Aurobindo's writings on the meaning of terrestrial life and of the present evolutionary crisis.
- Notes:
- Excerpts from the author's The life divine, The human cycle, and The synthesis of yoga.
