COMMENTS
"Savitri is the supreme revelation of Sri Aurobindo's vision."
-The Mother
All can be done if the god-touch is here.
- Sri Aurobindo
The greatest victories are the least noisy. The manifestation of a new world is not proclaimed by beat of drum.
- The Mother
"During a period of nearly fifty years. (Sri Aurobindo) created what is probably the greatest epic in English language. I venture the judgment that it is the most comprehensive, integrated, beautiful and perfect cosmic poem ever composed. It ranges symbolically from a primordial cosmic void, from earth's darkness and struggles, to the highest realms of Supramental spiritual existence, and illumines every important concern of man, through verse of unparalleled massiveness, magnificence and metaphorical brilliance. Savitri is perhaps the most powerful artistic work in the world for expanding man's mind towards the absolute.
