Deliberations on the Life Divine (Paperback)


ABOUT THE BOOK Sri Aurobindo's main philosophical work The Life Divine is a difficult work not only to understand but also to go through without making great effort. The difficulty consists in not only the originality of the thought expressed in the book but also in the style of writing of its author. At the same time it must be admitted that if the book is read with the right kind of attention, it not only becomes capable of being understood but also of being enjoyed ... Dr. Ananda Reddy has dealt with what I have briefly stated above more elaborately in his informative introduction. The reader should pay especial attention to what he says about how to read Sri Aurobindo's writings. He quotes the Mother and other authorities in this connection. The suggestions are of great importance and will be of great help to a reader who is beginning to read The Life Divine. Dr. Reddy summarises the contents of the first six chapters of the book under study and also gives the arguments offered in their support. These will assist the reader to begin to understand the chief topics of Sri Aurobindo's doctrines in these six chapters and also the steps of his arguments. Dr. Reddy has rendered a signal service to the prospective reader of The Life Divine and also of Sri Aurobindo's other writings. Prof. Arabinda Basu (Late)
