SRI AUROBINDO

 

SRI AUROBINDO

 

Sri Aurobindo was born as Aurobindo Ghose, born in Kolkata. Aurobindo was educated at Cambridge University. He was an intellectual who intensely analysed human and social evolution.  He joined the movement for independence from British rule, for a while was one of its influential leaders and then became a spiritual reformer, introducing his visions on human progress and spiritual evolution.

 

Our ideal of Swaraj involves no hatred of any other nation nor of the administration which is now established by law in this country…Our ideal of patriotism proceeds on the basis of love and brotherhood and it looks beyond the unity of the nation and envisages the ultimate unity of mankind. But it is a unity of brothers, equals and freemen that we seek, not the unity of master and serf, of devourer and devoured. The future belongs to the young. It is a young and new world which is now under process of development and it is the young who must create it. But it is also a world of truth, courage, justice, lofty aspiration and straightforward fulfilment which we seek to create. For the coward, for the self-seeker, for the talker who goes forward at the beginning and afterwards leaves his fellows in the lurch there is no place in the future of this movement. A brave, frank, clean-hearted, courageous and aspiring youth is the only foundation on which the future nation can be built.
