Quotes from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother


"Accepting life, he has to bear not only his own burden, but a great part of the world's burden too along with it, as a continuation of his own sufficiently heavy load. Therefore hisYoga has much more of the nature of a battle than others'; but this is not only an individual battle, it is a collective war waged over a considerable country. He has not only to conquer in himself the forces of egoistic falsehood and disorder, but to conquer them as representatives of the same adverse and inexhaustible forces in the world. Their representative character gives them a much more obstinate capacity of resistance, an almost endless right to recurrence. Often he finds that even after he has won persistently his own personal battle, he has still to win it over and over again in a seemingly interminable war, because his inner existence has already been so much enlarged that not only it contains his own being with its well-defined needs and experiences, but is in solidarity with the being of others, because in himself he contains the universe." (Sri Aurobindo, The Synthesis of Yoga)
Disciple: How should one proceed, if the sadhanna is not personal but collective?
The Mother: One must enlarge oneself.
The work is more complicated, more complex, requiring a greater strength, a greater width, a greater patience, a greater tolerance and a greater endurance.
Yet if each one does perfectly what he has to do, all together form but a single person doing the sadhana for everybody. If there are fifty doing the integral Yoga and only one does the work, then he does it for all. But if every one of the fifty does it for all, he does it in effect for one person, for everyone works for everyone. That should create among all a unity strong enough to make one indistinguishable from another. And that is the ideal way, that all together should form only one body, one personality, working at once for oneself and for others without distinction.
Sri Aurobindo and the Mother on Collective Yoga, pp.18-19

Receive Our Offering


The Prayer Of The Cells In The Body

Now That, By The Effect Of Thy Grace,
We Are Slowly Emerging Out Of In Conscience

And Walking To A Conscious Life,
An Ardent Prayer Rises In Us For
More Light, More Consciousness,

“O Supreme Lord Of The Universe,
We Implore Thee,

Give Us The Strength And The Beauty, The Harmonious

Perfection Needed To Be Thy Divine Instruments Upon Earth.”

A Prayer For Those Who Wish To Serve The Divine


Glory To Thee , O Lord,
Who Triumphest Over Every Obstacle.

Grant That Nothing In Us
Shall Be An Obstacle In Thy Work.

Grant That Nothing May Retard Thy Manifestation.

Grant That Thy Will May Be Done
In All Things And At Every Moment.
We Stand Here Before Thee
That Thy Will May Be Fulfilled In Us,

In Every Element, In Every Activity Of Our Being,

From Our Supreme Heights To The Smallest Cells
Of The Body.

Grant That We May Be Faithful To Thee
Utterly And Forever.

We Would Be Completely Under Thy Influence
To The Exclusion Of Every Other.

Grant That We May Neverforget
To Own Towards Thee A Deep, An Intense Gratitude.

Grant That We May Never Squander
Any Of The Marvelous Things

That Are Thy Gifts To Us At Every Instant.
Grant That Everything In Us May

Collaborate In Thy Work
And All Be Ready For Thy Realisaion.
Glory To Thee,O Lord, Supreme Master Of All Realisation.

Give Us A Faith Active And Ardent,
Absolute And Unshakable In Thy Victory.

The One Essential Thing

The Purpose Of Prayer

All Prayer Rightly Offered
Brings Us Closer To The Divine
And Establishes A Right Relation With Him.

How To Pray

(“Rightly Offered” Means) With Humility And Sincerity.
It Goes Without Saying
That All Bargaining Spirit Is An Insincerity
That Takes Away All Value To The Prayer.
A Simple, Straight And Sincere Call
And Aspiration From The Heart
Is The One Important Thing
And More Essential And Effective Than Capacities.

How To Do Japa

The Japa Is Usually Successful
Only On One Of Two Conditions
-If It Is Repeated With A Sense Of Its Significance,

A Dwelling Of Something
In The Mind On The Nature,
Power, Beauty, Attraction
Of The Godhead It Signifies

And Is To Bring In To The Consciousness,
-That Is The Mental Way;

Or If It Comes Up From The Heart Or Rings In It

With A Certain Sense Of Feeling Of Bhakti Making It Alive, -That Is The Emotional Way…

There Is,Of Course, A Third Way,
The Reliance On The Power Of The Mantra
Or Name In Itself;

But Then One Has To Go On Till That Power

Has Successfully Impressed Its Vibration On Thee Inner Being
To Make It At A Given Moment
Suddenly Open To The Presence Or The Touch.

The Supreme Protection


O My Lord, With Your Help And Grace
What Is There To Fear!

You Are The Supreme Protection
That Defeats All The Enemies.

Remember That The Mother Is Always With You

Address Her As Follows And
‘She Will Pull You Out Of All Difficulties:

“O Mother, Thou Art The Light Of My Intelligence,
The Purity Of My Soul,
The Quiet Strength Of My Vital,
The Endurance Of My Body.
I Rely On Thee Alone And Want To Be Entirely Thine.
Make Me Surmount All Obstacles On The Way.”


In The Name Of My Lord,
For The Sake Of My Lord,
With The Will Of My Lord,
By The Power Of My Lord,
Stop Immediately Harassing Us.

Always To Remember Thee


Lord Grant Me This Grace,
That I May Never Forget Thee.

O My Sweet Lord,

Lord ,Give Me Perfect Sincerity,
That Sincerity Which Will Lead Me Straight To Thee.

Lord, Deliver Us From Falsehood,
Make Us Emerge In Thy Truth,
Pure And Worthy Of Thy Vistory.

Supreme Lord, Teach Us To Be Silent
So That In Silence We May Receive Thy Force And Understand Thy Will.

Lord,Give Us The Indomitable Courage
That Comes From A Perfect Trust In Thee.

Give Us Faith In A Glorious Future
And The Capacity To Realise It.

Lord, Give Us The Strength
To Live Integrally The Ideal We Proclaim.

O Lord, I Pray To Thee,
Guide My Foot Steps,Enlighten My Mind,
That At Every Moment And In All Things,
I May Do Exactly What Thou Wantest Me To Do.

Lord, Supreme Truth,
We Aspire To Know Thee And To Serve Thee,

Help Us To Become Children Worthy Of Thee.

And For This, Make Us Conscious Of Thy Constant Gifts

So That Gratitude May Fill Our Hearts And Govern Our Lives.

Make Me Thine



My Lord,Every Day,In All Circumstances,
Let Me Repeat With The Full Sincerity Of My Heart,
“May Thy Will Be Done And Not Mine”.

O,My Lord,My Lord!
What You Want Of Me,Let Me Be,
What You Want Me To Do,Let Me Do.

Grant That We May Simply Be,
Now And For Ever, Thy Little Children.

Who is the Mother?

Sri Aurobindo has declared in no uncertain terms :

"The one whom we adore as the Mother is the divine Conscious Force that dominates all existence, one and yet so many-sided that to follow her movement is impossible even for the quickest mind and for the freest and most vast intelligence."

And the Divine Mother, in her great love for humanity has taken a human body for only so could we, her children, approach her and follow her in the path of the Supramental Yoga. She once said :

"I belong to no nation, no civilisation, no society, no race, but to the Divine. I obey no master, no ruler, no law, no social convention, but the Divine. To Him I have surrendered all, will, life and self; for Him I am ready to give all my blood, drop by drop, if such is His Will, with complete joy; and nothing in His service can be sacrifice, for all is perfect delight."

The Mother

"I belong to no nation, no civilization, no society, no race, but to the Divine.
I obey no master, no rules, no law, no social convention, but the Divine.
To Him I have surrendered all, will, life and self; for Him I am ready to give all my blood, drop by drop, if such is His will, with complete joy, and nothing in his service can be sacrifice, for all is perfect delight." -
