Description

Sri Aurobindo’s epic Savitri abounds in epigrams, pithy sayings in a single sentence or line summing up a profound message, a deep wisdom. These epigrams are of various kinds, each with its own appeal. There are some that sum up the past in one striking line, some that confidently predict the future. There are many that capture the present in its bewildering profusion. Quite a number of these are perceptions that adumbrate whole philoso­phies in the different spheres of life. Not a few knock out the mind and land one in the arms of the soul; the experience comes first, the meaning dawns afterwards.

A selection is offered here for such use as one is ready for: literary delectation, mental illumination, spiritual experience, yogic realisation.
