Book Synopsis Savitri – The Golden Bridge, the Wonderful Fire by : Mangesh V. Nadkarni
Download or read book Savitri – The Golden Bridge, the Wonderful Fire written by Mangesh V. Nadkarni and published by Auro e-Books. This book was released on with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost all of the essays collected in this volume were written for and first published as monthly instalments in Next Future, the e-journal of the Sri Aurobindo Society Pondicherry. The 47 instalments ended with the passing of Dr. Nadkarni in September 2007, and cover Savitri Book by Book, Canto by Canto, from the beginning up to the climactic point in the middle of Book Eleven, where Savitri is offered four boons of merger with the Supreme, and asks instead for the Supreme Peace, Oneness, Energy and Bliss ‘for Earth and Men’. Dr. Nadkarni has written other essays on Savitri as well as giving many other talks, but this collection represents a masterly ‘Introduction’ (as he modestly called it) to the revelatory poem which he loved so much and understood so well. It has been compiled and published at the request of his family, and we feel sure that it will be welcomed by Savitri readers and students all over the world, and to a certain extent make up for the great loss that his many admirers experienced when he passed away in September 2007 at the age of 74.

Book Synopsis The English of Savitri by : Shraddhavan
Download or read book The English of Savitri written by Shraddhavan and published by Auro e-Books. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1980, Shraddhavan has been teaching English in Auroville through close readings of Sri Aurobindo’s revelatory epic Savitri: a legend and a symbol. In August 1998 these classes were resumed at Savitri Bhavan, with a growing number of students, including young Tamil teacher-trainees from the Arul Vazhi School located in Promesse, Auroville. These classes were given the name ‘The English of Savitri’ and they concluded in May of 2009 as this group reached the end of the poem. This book is based on the transcripts of a new series of classes given by Shraddhavan between August 2009 and October 2010, which have been edited for conciseness and clarity, while aiming to preserve some of the informal atmosphere of the course. Edited transcripts of these classes began to be published serially in the Bhavan’s journal of Study Notes on Savitri, ‘Invocation’, from issue 32 onwards, since it was felt that they may be of interest to a wider audiance. They are now being published in book form in several volumes by Yukta Prakashan publishers of Vadodara. This suggested the idea of collecting the original English articles into a book form as well. This is the first such volume, covering all the five cantos of Book One of the poem, ‘The Book of Beginnings’.

Book Synopsis A Few Aspects of Savitri by : R. Y. Deshpande
Download or read book A Few Aspects of Savitri written by R. Y. Deshpande and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sri Aurobindo Center of Los Angeles, East-West Cultural Center, 12329 Marshall St, Culver City, CA 90230, www.sriaurobindocenter-la.org, had organised extended weekend sessions to explore a few aspects of Sri Aurobindo's epic Savitri. This was on Friday evening, Saturday morning and afternoon, and Sunday morning, 6-7-8 October 2017, in all four sessions, each two-hour duration, followed by discussions, and of course followed by wonderful lunch/dinner. The four parts presented here, Parts A-B-C-D, were taken up for study in that sequence. The talks were essentially based on the draft-material that was prepared for the purpose, with some on-the-spot departures depending upon the exigencies of the situation. These have now been finalised and are being published, a work which, it is hoped, will be of relevance to a wider readership of Savitri. --- This will be a quick broad coverage of Sri Aurobindo's magnum opus Savitri, touching upon just a few aspects, of a poem running into about 24000 lines. First a general background in Part A is provided in the manner of a hurried introduction to it. It presents the story of Savitri by Vyasa included in his Mahabharata, and some of the early letters of Sri Aurobindo, how he started writing Savitri and how, though with long gaps in between, it developed in the course of more than three decades. The Mother calls Savitri as the supreme revelation of Sri Aurobindo, which he tells as his "main work." In Part B we pick up, at random, a few themes from Savitri and try to go rapidly into their depths. The opening Canto, The Symbol Dawn, is taken for a relatively more detailed discussion. In it we see Savitri waking up from the original somnolence, possibly at the time of the Avatarhood of Rama when the evolutionary transition from vital-submental to the mental proper was taking place. Man lifted up the burden of his fate and with him awoke Savitri. This Part finally touches upon the advent of Krishna and Kali on earth, as a divine Fruit of the yogic Savitri. Their entering into dynamics of this mortal world should mark another great transition, of the coming of a being superior to Man, more advanced than even the spiritual Man. With it Evolution, which is now in the domain of Ignorance, will enter into the domain of Knowledge, of Light and Love and Truth and Beauty and Joy and Perfection in wondrous possibilities of the manifesting Spirit. With Krishna and Kali in this mortal world will begin the timeless Age with interminable prospects of expression. Part C narrates in a swift manner the story of the composition of Savitri that had run in the longish course of time. One can say that this composition extended over a period of about 35 years, from 1916 to 1950, almost till the time of the physical withdrawal of the Yogi-Poet. There exist innumerable drafts, running into thousands of sheets of paper, and revisions upon revisions, at various stages, till including, at times, the reading of the press proofs. Understandably, this has led to quite a few complexities, some of them of a serious kind, calling a careful perceptive scrutiny of the available material. Preparing, therefore, at this stage, the text of Savitri based on these researches can become a blemished affair. Subjective elements in making choices from alternative drafts do enter into it and this can lead to a situation where the sense may not be what the author had meant. While this subjective trait can never be avoided, there could still be a way out by making the Savitri material available in some form to the serious students and researchers of the Poem. Coming to the poetic matters in the last Part, Part D, we see the aspects of inspiration and techniques as are in Savitri. Sri Aurobindo defines four sources from where inspiration can come; he names them as Overhead Planes, they termed as Higher Mind, Illumined Mind, Intuition, and Overmind.

Download or read book Sri Aurobindo's Savitri written by Prema Nandakumar and published by Wisdom Tree. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sri Aurobindo's multi-faceted genius is not easily fathomed. The world knows him primarily as a Mahayogi. He was also a superb poet in English and achieved the impossible by producing a great philosophical epic in Savitri. Almost 50 years a-growing, the epic poem takes up the secular legend of Savitri and Satyavan found in Vyasa's Mahabharata and retells the tale in terms of man's evolutionary advancement and the possibilities of his great future on earth. Savitri by itself, Savitri in relation to Sri Aurobindo's life and work, and Savitri in relation to the great epics of the world and even in relation to the currents of human thoughts and experience of all times: these are the three ascending terms in the argument in A Study of Savitri. At a time when there is a widening interest in Sri Aurobindo's poem, this trustworthy volume will be a great help to aspirants the world over.

Download or read book Savitri written by Sri Aurobindo and published by . This book was released on 1993-12-01 with total page 827 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Savitri is Sri Aurobindo's major poetic work, an epic in blank-verse of about 24,000 lines in which a tale from the Mahabharata becomes a symbol of the human soul's spiritual quest and destiny. The tale of Satyavan and Savitri , Sri Aurobindo noted, is recited in the Mahabharata as a story of conjugal love conquering death . Sri Aurobindo has widened the original legend and turned it into a symbol in which the soul of man, represented by Satyavan, is delivered from the grip of death and ignorance through the love and power of the Divine Mother, incarnated upon earth as Savitri. Sri Aurobindo worked on this poem for more than thirty years. When a disciple asked why he kept rewriting it, he replied: That is very simple. I used Savitri as a means of ascension. I began it on a certain mental level, each time I could reach a higher level I rewrote it from that level. . . In fact Savitri has not been regarded by me as a poem to be written and finished, but as a field of experimentation to see how far poetry could be written from one's own yogic consciousnes and how that could be made creative. The Mother considered Savitri to be the supreme revelation of Sri Aurobindo's vision and called it that marvellous prophetic poem which ill be humanity's guide towards its future realisation. (The demy size edition includes letters of Sri Aurobindo on Savitri. The crown size edition has line numbers.) Contents: Savitri; Sri Aurobindo's letters on Savitri Subjects: Poetry, Philosophy, Yoga, Mysticism.
