Short prose pieces written between 1910 and 1950, but not published during Sri Aurobindo's lifetime. The material is arranged in four parts: (1) 'Essays Divine and Human', complete essays on yoga and related subjects, (2) 'From Man to Superman: Notes and Fragments on Philosophy, Psychology and Yoga'; (3) 'Notes and Fragments on Various Subjects', and (4) Thoughts and Aphorisms. (Some of this material was formally published under the title 'The Hour of God and Other Writings')
Justice, one says; but what is Justice? Plato's question applies to this as to every other sacred icon set up by men for their worship.
Justice for each man is what his own type of mind accepts as right and proper and equitable as between men and men. Or, it might be added, between the community and its constituents, the State and its citizens.
