In March 1967 Huta began the work of expressing some of Sri Aurobindo's poems through paintings. Under the Mother's inspiration and guidance she selected certain verses from the poems and completed fifty-four paintings, which were all shown to the Mother in September of that year. This new book presents these paintings along with the lines which inspired them from some of Sri Aurobindo's most well-known poems

All around me now the Titan forces press;
   This earth is theirs, they hold its days in fee;
I am full of wounds and the fight merciless:
   Is it not yet Thy hour of Victory?

Sri Aurobindo, Collected Poems: In the Battle


=============





What people call delight is not even a caricature of true delight, but rather a diabolical invention to make you lose the way, the delight of joy that comes from pleasure, forgetfulness, indifference. What I speak of is a delight that is perfect peace, light without shadow, harmony; beauty whole and entire and irresistible Power, the Delight that is the Divine Presence itself, in its essence, in its will and in its realisation.

The Mother, Questions and Answers (1955): 7 December 1955

In some faint dawn,
In some dim eve,
   Like a gesture of Light,
   Like a dream of delight
Thou comst nearer and nearer to me.
