Correspondence between Sri Aurobindo from Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry and Dilip Kumar Roy in the book Sri Aurobindo To Dilip, is the first of three volumes of this series.
In this soft cover book of 384 pages, Sri Aurobindo explains his yoga guiding Dilip in his inner life and encouraging him to overcome doubt, depression and even revolt to develop his poetic skills, commenting upon his Bengali and English poems. We see at work the ideal guru-shishya, teacher-student relationship, the infinite patience of the loving guru on the one hand, and on the other the questionings, difficulties, struggles, but also experiences, of the doting disciple, whom Sri Aurobindo invites to take up the pilgrim’s staff and start out to journey there where reality is for ever manifest and present.
Dilip Kumar Roy is a singer, musician, poet and writer. In 1928, Dilip, whom Sri Aurobindo called a friend and a son, became the latter’s disciple. A massive correspondence ensued –countless letters from Sri Aurobindo and a few more from Mother, extending till 1951, and published unabridged here for the first time.
