‘Essays Divine and Human’ (CWSA volume 12) is a marvellous collection of essays, short writings and mind-widening aphorisms. These are essays that Sri Aurobindo wrote after his arrival in Pondicherry in 1910 but which were not seen by him before publication. Another set of essays, also written in Pondicherry but which were seen by him before publication, became a part of CWSA 13 (‘Essays in Philosophy and Yoga’).
In this talk we read Sri Aurobindo’s translation of Isha Upanishad, in 18 shlokas, with a brief commentary.
The last CWSA volume contains autobiographical notes, letters and other writings, and includes early personal letters, public statements and letters on national and world...
This talk continues with the ‘The Synthesis of Yoga’ (CWSA Vol 23-24) as part of the series on Writings of Sri Aurobindo.
