Sidelights on Sri Aurobindo

by M. P. Pandit

From the publishers' note:

The integral vision of Sri Aurobindo is all-embracing. His light can be turned on any aspect of life, any situation, with profit. Here are a few selections from the author's writings applying this light to events and trends in modern life.

Sri Aurobindo has a contribution to make to every section of humanity. His philosophy apart, his yoga apart, his approaches to life-experience open up fresh vistas of faith and hope.
