Description
This book traces the development of Sri Aurobindo as a spiritual revolutionary and rational mystic who combined in himself the best of East and West.
Poet, philosopher, revolutionary and mystic, Sri Aurobindo was one of India's most extraordinary leaders. He inspired the revolutionary movement, transformed the Congress from an elite to a mass organization, and propagated a vision of an India proud of her past, and reedy to face the future.
Incarcerated in jail, he become convinced that India would soon be free. He withdrew from politics and settled in Pondicherry, where his intense spiritual exercises led to the development of Integral Yoga.
