Sri Aurobindo, my favorite yogi: the modern day initiator of Integral Yoga

Once i worked in a cosmopolitan place where the hiring of workers from all across the globe was common; over the course of a quarter of a century they came in waves, responding to troubles in their homelands and the possibilities offered for succor here in the United States. Among these co-workers was a young fellow from India; occasionally he and i would chat about bits of Indian lore that i had stumbled upon in my readings and practice. Maybe something about the courtroom scene of a young Indian man, falsely accused of sedition, who at trial, came to realize that the judge, prosecutor, and defense attorney were revealed to be the three aspects of the Hindu divinity, Vishnu, Brahma, and Shiva; later this defendant would be known as Sri Aurobindo, my favorite yogi: the modern day initiator of Integral Yoga...Princess Kunti, a mother of note Last post 10 hours, 26 minutes ago by charlesb.
