Sri Aurobindos Buch «Die Mutter» wurde unter ganz besonderen Umständen geschrieben. Als sich Sri Aurobindo 1926 zurückzog und die Leitung des Ashrams der Mutter übertrug, bat er alle Sadhaka sich in Bezug auf Führung und Hilfe in der Sadhana an die Mutter zu wenden. Als er anordnete, dass fortan jeder Kontakt mit ihm nur über die Mutter stattfinden solle, wurde er von jenen, die lange vor ihr mit ihm zusammen waren, gefragt: «Ja, aber wer ist die Mutter?» Als diese Frage immer wieder gestellt...

Sri Aurobindo writes, that the ego‘s factories and marts surround the beautiful temple of the soul. The soul is a spark, a portion of the Divine and the centre of light in our being. Being divine in its nature, its qualities and powers are also divine. Beauty, harmony, love, joy and other verities of the Divine Truth are present wherever the soul is awake making the chamber of the soul a veritable temple. But we do not normally have access to this temple for around the soul there are formations...

A compilation from the works of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. "The rule in Yoga is not to let the depression depress you, to stand back from it, observe its cause and remove the cause; for the cause is always in oneself, perhaps a vital defect somewhere, a wrong movement indulged or a petty desire causing a recoil, sometimes by its satisfaction, sometimes by its disappointment. In Yoga a desire satisfied, a false movement given its head produces very often a worse recoil than...

Concentration does not mean meditation; on the contrary, concentration is a state one must be in continuously, whatever the outer activity. By concentration I mean that all the energy, all the will, all the aspiration must be turned only towards the Divine and His integral realisation in our consciousness.

“The time of religions is over. We have entered the age of universal spirituality, of spiritual experience in its initial purity.” (The Mother) “The Truth of the Divine which is the spiritual reality behind all religions and the descent of the supramental which is not known to any religion are the sole things which will be the foundation of the work of the future.” (Sri Aurobindo)

To tell the truth, if you live only a moment, just a tiny moment, of this absolutely sincere aspiration or this sufficiently intense prayer, you will know more things than by meditating for hours. (The Mother) – Prayer: There is a general tendency among certain intellectuals to undermine prayer as something religious and inferior. However a look at the spiritual history of man kind reveals that prayers have always been an integral part of spiritual living. There is a rationale and a process...

Creation is not a making of something out of nothing or of one thing out of another, but a self-projection of Brahman into the conditions of Space and Time. (Sri Aurobindo) The Lord and the world, even when they seem to be distinct, are not really different from each other; they are one Brahman. (Sri Aurobindo)

Nachdem Sri Aurobindo sich 1926 nahezu vollständig von der Außenwelt und auch von dem persönlichem Kontakt mit seinen Jüngern zurückgezogen hatte, forderte er diese auf, sich mit ihren Fragen und Problemen schriftlich an ihn zu wenden. Das taten sie und „schrieben ihm über alles, über ihre Heimsuchungen und Hoffnungen, ihre dunklen Nächte und verhangenen Tage, über plötzlichen Jubel, seltsame Ängste und bleierne Depressionen – oder sie stellten Fragen über Probleme der Philosophie, der...

“In a profound sense it is the call and attraction of the future that makes the past and present, and that future will be more and more seen to be the growth of the godhead in the human being which is the high fate of this race that thinks and wills and labours towards its own perfection. This is a strain that we shall hear more and more, the song of the growing godhead of the kind, of human unity, of spiritual freedom, of the coming supermanhood of man, of the divine ideal seeking to actualise...

Sri Aurobindo and the Mother on the aims and ideals of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram. “Our aim is not, either, to found a religion or a school of philosophy or a school of Yoga, but to create a ground and a way of spiritual growth and experience which will bring down a greater Truth beyond the mind but not inaccessible to the human soul and consciousness. All can pass who are drawn to that Truth, whether they are from India or elsewhere, from the East or from the West. All may find great difficulties...

Selections from the works of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother on Yoga, health and healing. "Instead of being upset and struggling, the best thing to do is to offer one’s body to the Divine with the sincere prayer, “Let Thy Will be done.” If there is any possibility of cure, it will establish the best conditions for it; and if cure is impossible, it will be the very best preparation for getting out of the body and the life without it. In any case the first indispensable condition is a quiet...

"Each time an individual breaks the narrow limitations in which he is imprisoned by his ego and emerges into the open air, through self-giving, whether for the sake of another human being or his family, his country or his faith, he finds in this self-forgetfulness a foretaste of the marvellous delight of love, and this gives him the impression that he has come into contact with the Divine. But most often it is only a fleeting contact, for in the human being love is immediately mixed with...
