| Sri Aurobindo's writings, which address in a comprehensive and intricate fashion the most complex problems of human existence, extend to more than 35 volumes. In the space allotted here, it is hardly possible to provide more than a few brief comments on some of the key principles. Furthermore, the aim here is to touch on the breadth of his work, which extends into a number of fields. Thus, for each of the fields addressed, only a few key ideas can be introduced in the barest of fashion. It is hoped that the ideas so presented – ideas which in their fullness and essence are among the most interesting, original, and powerful that have been advanced anywhere – may be sufficient to stimulate in the reader an impetus for further study. |
