The Supramental Manifestation upon Earth

The eight essays in this book deal with the future evolution of humanity and the possibility of divine life on earth. Written in 1949 and 1950, they are Sri Aurobindo’s last prose writings.

“The divine life must always be actuated by the push towards perfection; a perfection of the joy of life is part and an essential part of it, the body’s delight in things and the body’s joy of life are not excluded from it; they too have to be made perfect. A large totality is the very nature of this new and growing way of existence, a fullness of the possibilities of the mind transmuted into a thing of light, of the life converted into a force of spiritual power and joy, of the body transformed into an instrument of a divine action, divine knowledge, divine bliss.”
