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.
Surrender to the Will of God in ‘The Meditations of Mandavya’
Sri Aurobindo’s life through his poems. Today’s talk touches upon the period from 1926 to the 1938 when the Ashram was being consolidated.
This poem reveals to us the worth and value of wisdom.
