Sri Aurobindo

This volume consists of all poems in English including sonnets, lyrical poems, narrative poems, and metrical experiments in various forms. All such poems published by Sri Aurobindo during his lifetime are included here, as well as poems found among his manuscripts after his passing. Sri Aurobindo worked on these poems over the course of seven decades. The first one was published in 1883 when he was ten; a number of poems were written or revised more than sixty years later, in the late 1940s.

The Self's Infinity

Know more >

I have become what before Time I was.
    A secret touch has quieted thought and sense:
All things by the agent Mind created pass
    Into a void and mute magnificence.

My life is a silence grasped by timeless hands;
    The world is drowned in an immortal gaze.
Naked my spirit from its vestures stands;
    I am alone with my own self for space.

My heart is a centre of infinity,
    My body a dot in the soul's vast expanse.
All being's huge abyss wakes under me,
    Once screened in a gigantic Ignorance.

A momentless immensity pure and bare,
I stretch to an eternal everywhere.
