  • Talks by Nirodbaran December 1969
    TALKS BY NIRODBARAN December 1969 – July 1970 TALKS by NIRODBARAN December 1969 – July 1970 Edited by Sunayana and Maurice Sri Aurobindo Ashram Pondicherry First Edition: 2018 Rs 210 ISBN 978-93-5210-152-8 © Sri Aurobindo Ashram Trust 2018 Published by Sri Aurobindo Ashram Publication Department Pondicherry 605 002 Web http://www.sabda.in Printed at Sri Aurobindo Ashram Press, Pondicherry PRINTED IN INDIA Foreword Four years before Sri Aurobindo’s birth centenary, at a teacher’s request, Nirod-da agreed to speak to the students of Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education about Sri Aurobindo. It was thought that this would help to prepare them for the occasion. Having had a privileged contact with the Master for twelve years as well as a voluminous correspondence with him, Nirod-da soon became a big draw with the students. As the audience kept increasing for his talks, the venue was shifted to the larger Hall of Harmony. Each week Nirod-da’s talk to the students was tape-recorded on a cassette; then it was immediately transcribed and made available for the following session. In this way, a hundred and fifty talks were recorded and meticulously transcribed by Sudha and Kokila. It is interesting to note that Nirod-da’s Twelve Years with Sri Aurobindo was born of notes taken for these talks; before the book was published, it was read out to the Mother in instalments by the author himself. “Thanks toN irod,” the Mother wrote, “we have a revelation of an altogether unknown side of what Sri Aurobindo was.

  • Nirodbaran Talks with Sri Aurobindo 01
    Talks with Sri Aurobindo Volume 1 by Nirodbaran Sri Aurobindo Ashram Pondicherry NOTE These talks are from my notebooks. For several years I used to record most of the conversations which Sri Aurobindo had with us, his attendants, and a few others, after the accident to his right leg in November 1938. Besides myself, the regular participants were: Purani, Champaklal, Satyendra, Mulshankar and Dr. Becharlal. Occasional visitors were Dr. Manilal, Dr. Rao and Dr. Savoor. As these notes were not seen by Sri Aurobindo himself, the responsibil- ity for the Master's words rests entirely with me. I do not vouch for absolute accuracy, but I have tried my best to reproduce them faithfully. I have made the same attempt for the remarks of the others. NIRODBARAN i PREFACE The eve of the November Darshan, 1938. The Ashram humming with the ar- rival of visitors. On every face signs of joy, in every look calm expectation and happiness. Everybody has retired early, lights have gone out: great occa- sion demands greater silent preparation. The Ashram is bathed in an atmos- phere of serene repose. Only one light keeps on burning in the corner room like a midnight vigil. Sri Aurobindo at work as usual. A sudden noise! A rush and hurry of feet breaking the calm sleep. 2:00 a.m. Then an urgent call to Sri Aurobindo's room. There, lying on the floor with his right knee flexed, is he, clad in white dhoti, upper body bare, the Golden Purusha. The Mother, dressed in a sari, is sitting beside him.

  • Champaklal's Treasures Edited by M
    Champaklal's Treasures Edited by M. P. Pandit Revised and Enlarged by Roshan First edition1976 (Edited by M. P. Pandit) Second edition 2008 (Revised and enlarged by Roshan) AUROBINDA GHOSE - 1909 Specially photographed for the prabasi and the Modern Review The Mother with Champaklal 2-2-1959 My dear child This year, the Grace has arranged circumstances in such a way that you are closer to me than you have ever been - and all through you have proved most reliable and effective, always ready, always there when you are needed, always doing what needs to be done. I am happy to tell you that on your birthday. With my love and blessings. The Mother PREFACE It is a delight to present this revised and enlarged edition of Champaklal's Treasures, which contains new material recently found among Champaklal's papers. This book comprises writings and talks of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother that were collected and preserved by Champaklal. These letters notes, messages and conversations delve deep into the values of a life based on truth, light, love, beauty, harmony and the divine consciousness. They are full of insights into the problems of transforming one's nature and offer ways to overcome them. Champaklal was interested in reading, writing, painting and music, but always his central aspiration was to serve the Divine. Sincere aspiration, even when not expressed in words, evokes a response from the Divine Grace. Champaklal's life is a standing example of this truth. His aspiration was fulfilled in a number of ways, often to his utter surprise.

The talk on “The Kalki Avatar” was also held at the Townhall, in February 2011, in the context of the seminar on “Muta- tion II”. I had been invited to give talks in Europe, the USA and India, but I had to cancel all travelling plans because of my heart condition. This led to the idea of giving a series of talks in Auroville, where I am living, and to record them so that the people who had invited me would be able, if they so desired, to have the talks all the same.

  • June 2003, and Remember Him in Fondness the Whole Material Side of the Ashram, the Ashram Would and Be Grateful for All That He Has Done for Them and for Us
    1 SABDA Newsletter Recent Publications he Mother used to have meetings with some of Tthe disciples in 1928 in the “Prosperity” Room in the Library House. Both Dyuman and I belonged to that group. Once the Mother raised the question: “Who among you has progressed the most during the past year?” The answer would not mean which sadhak or sadhika was the most advanced in general. It would declare which one had taken the most marked step forward during the preceding twelve months. While recollecting this question, I turned to Dyuman and asked whether it had struck in his memory too. He said “Yes”. Then I asked him whether he recalled the answer. He looked at me but kept quiet. I smiled and said: “We thought of Nolini, Amrita, Champaklal, Pavitra and Anilbaran, all old timers. But the Mother named you.” Dyuman’s face beamed and he exclaimed: “So you remember this?” I replied: “Who could forget so great a compliment?” Dyumanbhai in the 1940s — Amal Kiran CONTENTS Dyuman “The Luminous” — Karmayogi 2 The Renaissance: Notes and Papers 20 r Immortality 9 The Birth of Savit 21 Creation?

This is a very special year – 2013…it marks the beginning of the centenary year of the first arrival of our beloved Mother to Pondicherry. March 29, 1914 – the blessed day when the Mother Earth opened herself to a new era in her evolutionary march toward the Heavens Above, when the possibility of a Divine Life on Earth took its first concrete shape, when the Mother Creatrix met with the Divine Purusha and a new beginning was made for the Yoga of the Nature.

  • Both of the Lead Articles in This Issue
    Recent Publications oth of the lead articles in this issue are Bconcerned with history, although their arenas of action differ widely. In the course of the evening talks that Sri Aurobindo and his attendants had between 1938 and 1943, the Second World War was a constant theme. Sri Aurobindo’s comments showed not only a grasp of world politics but also a striking insight into military affairs. He was able to see the immediate and long-term consequences of strategic war moves to such an extent that a disciple once asked him if he had ever used the military genius he seemed to have. Sri Aurobindo’s reply was “Not in this life.” Our lead article brings to light the war’s little-known Norwegian campaign and Sri Aurobindo’s insights on its conduct and importance. The second article tells the story behind a collection of dragon-themed embroideries commissioned by the Mother in 1947 for Sri Aurobindo’s birthday. The account, prepared by the Ashram Archives Lab, details recent conservation efforts on these pieces and brings to light a piece of Ashram history, illustrated with some images of arresting beauty.
