Sri Aurobindo Ashram
From the publisher's note, "Those who would like to follow closely how this onerous task (of perfection being attempted at the Sri Aurobindo Ashram) is being realized in actual practice both in the life of the individuals & in the life of the community in spite of all the vicissitudes involved in the process may read with interest this book by Mukherjee which makes a frank & forthright assessment of the past, present & possible future of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram."
How I came to Sri Aurobindo
This memoir details the story of a sadhak (practitioner of spirituality), once a dyed-in-the-wool agnostic, who came to the practice of the Integral Yoga after a life-altering spiritual experience in his twenty-fourth year. Ignorant of spiritual literature at that time, he accepted conventional medical wisdom that put down the experience to a psychosomatic disorder. He continued to coast along as an agnostic for about a decade after this experience, believing all the while that medical attention was enough to 'manage the condition.' It was the contact with the Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo that awoke him to the reality of the goings-on within. Until this first exposure to Aurobindonian phil...

The Life of Sri Aurobindo
A combination of authentic material from Sri Aurobindo s own letters and other writings, research materials, correspondence, and personal reminiscences, this early biography of Sri Aurobindo was originally undertaken as a correction to various unauthorised books on his life and work. Revised three times, this edition includes seventy-eight pages of appendices and an extensive bibliography, in addition to the glossary and index, and traces the significant events in Sri Aurobindo s life as well as the evolution of his spiritual thought. The author s own involvement in the freedom movement brought him into contact with Sri Aurobindo, and especially the accounts of his early meetings with Sri Aurobindo in Pondicherry add a vibrant intimacy to this biography.
Sri Aurobindo for All Ages
A biography suitable for young as well as mature readers.It is written by a disciple who had the great privilege of serving Sri Aurobindo for twelve years as his literary secretary and, before this, of carrying on a long correspondence with him. During the years 1938–1950 Sri Aurobindo's attendants used to speak with him on various general topics, and many interesting anecdotes and experiences culled from both the talks and the letters give a unique flavour, an intimate feel to this book. It is sprinkled throughout with humour and personal touches which bring to the reader a very living contact.
The Essential Aurobindo
Who wrote the Gospel of John? The author identifies himself only as "the disciple whom Jesus loved," and Christian tradition tells us that this disciple was the apostle John. However, during the past century, scholars have increasingly come to doubt that attribution. In 1902, Rudolf Steiner wrote that the author of the Gospel of John was in fact Lazarus. Steiner's position stemmed from his insight that Lazarus's encounter with death involved far more than people realized--an initiation into higher spiritual realities that uniquely qualified him to write this gospel. Edward Smith takes up this argument and shows that subsequent research has tended to favor Lazarus for reasons grounded in John's Gospel itself. More important, Smith shows that subsequent discoveries at Nag Hammadi and Mar Saba corroborate Steiner's reasoning about the nature of the raising of Lazarus, pointing to Lazarus as "the rich young ruler" of Mark's Gospel.
The Vision and Work of Sri Aurobindo
Sri Aurobindo stands for no narrow cult: he kindles a vision and initiates a work that bear on the whole human situation, meeting its most central and recurrent as well as its most external and diverse issues. Man in every mode and field – the thinker and the scientist no less than the artist and the mystic – man individual and man collective – the modern breaker of new ground side by side with the heir of the ages – is Sri Aurobindo's material for probing and guidance. Especially he is concerned with man the conscious evolving agent and with the powers within, around and beyond him that help or hinder steps towards true Supermanhood, a transformative evolution of the entire nature r...
The Lives of Sri Aurobindo
Since his death in 1950, Sri Aurobindo Ghose has been known primarily as a yogi and a philosopher of spiritual evolution who was nominated for the Nobel Prize in peace and literature. But the years Aurobindo spent in yogic retirement were preceded by nearly four decades of rich public and intellectual work. Biographers usually focus solely on Aurobindo's life as a politician or sage, but he was also a scholar, a revolutionary, a poet, a philosopher, a social and cultural theorist, and the inspiration for an experiment in communal living. Peter Heehs, one of the founders of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram Archives, is the first to relate all the aspects of Aurobindo's life in its entirety. Consultin...
