About Sri Aurobindo: The Prophet of Nationalism
Originally serialised in the quarterly journal Śhraddha in 2017–18, this account of Sri Aurobindo’s political philosophy and strategy for gaining complete independence from Britain covers familiar territory. It does, however, include some lesser known details recovered from the archives of documents relative to the time period Sri Aurobindo was intimately involved in the movement. The section on the newspaper Bande Mataram, for example, reveals how deeply he was associated with all aspects of its publication, including directives on the responsibilities of its officers and a review of its budgetary issues; his plans to reorganise the Nationalist Party in another chapter are presented in comparable detail. The final chapter, “Sri Aurobindo on Religious Nationalism and Communal Harmony”, was first presented as a research paper at a national seminar in 2022.
