The first video from a new series “Reflections on Sri Aurobindo’s Poetry”. Today we read two sonnets of Sri Aurobindo. Sri Aurobindo wrote them in Baroda in 1901-1902 in a notebook, which was seized by the British police when Sri Aurobindo was arrested in 1908. This made it impossible for him to revise or publish these poems later, and they were not given titles. Their text is given below.
This poem reveals the response we should make to the call of the Divine.
Today’s talk touches upon the events centred around the end of World War ll.
This sonnet gives the state in which the one who works for the Divine dwells.
