About Leonardo da Vinci: A Yogi
The second in a series of monographs titled Mankind on the March dedicated to personalities who have made significant contributions to the evolution of consciousness, this book looks at the life of Leonardo da Vinci. Taking as its premise that these personalities are representatives of the five distinct psychological stages of social evolution as described by Sri Aurobindo in The Human Cycle, the author studies the life of da Vinci. A man of the Renaissance, da Vinci used his remarkable intelligence to serve the higher faculties of the human being. A polymath, a seeker of beauty and delight, a genius of the individual age, he exemplified a universality of spirit.
