Sri Aurobindo

By Purnima Majumdaar

Sri Aurobindo Ghose is famous as Yogiraj Aurobindo. Inspite of the very English environment and the English education he had received in England, Sri Aurobindo had always been dedicated to his country and his nation. The rebellious period of his life, between his childhood and youth, has proved to be a great blessing for this nation. His writings are still proving favourable for mankind; not withstanding the great personal benefit that people have drawn from his personal life.

Introduction

Sri Aurobindo was a great Revolutionary, Philosopher, Poet, Writer, and Spiritual Master. He is considered as the proud son of Mother India. He contributed a lot towards the country’s freedom.

Sri Aurobindo introduced a new revolutionary approach to yoga. He termed it as the ‘Integral Yoga’. His perception about yoga was different and fresh. Unlike the Yogis of ancient times, he felt yoga and spirituality need not include seperation from the world. Sri Aurobindo desired to include the Divine into all aspects of life.
