Sri Aurobindo fue una figura clave en el nacionalismo indio y un pensador profundo. Transformado de un luchador por la libertad a un filósofo, se dedicó a articular una visión del progreso humano y la evolución espiritual. Central en su pensamiento es el concepto de la evolución de la vida hacia una 'vida divina', considerando a la humanidad como una etapa de transición hacia un 'superhombre'. Sus extensos escritos profundizan en la metafísica, la síntesis del yoga y el ideal de la unidad humana, mientras que su poesía explora temas de transformación espiritual.

One of the largest epics in English, Savitri is an account of Sri Aurobindo's own Yoga allegorically narrated through an actual story from the great Indian epic Mahabharata. It actually began as an experiment in writing mantric poetry in English, and is the only book that he devoted so much time to over a span of 40 years.In this epic spiritual poem, Sri Aurobindo reveals his vision of mankind's destiny within the universal evolution.
