Description
xTranslated into English by Prasenjit Sen, Sri Aurobindo: Jeebon O Jog was the first complete biography of Sri Aurobindo, written in Bengali, and approved by the Master.
Sri Aurobindo was a scholar, a literary critic, a philosopher, a revolutionary, a poet, and a yogi. Born on 15 August 1872 in Kolkata, he spent the initial part of his life fighting for the basic rights of humanity and his countrymen. In his later life, the aim of his sadhana was for India and all of mankind to attain the right to divinity.
Sri Aurobindo became a revolutionary leader in India’s fight for independence. Sri Aurobindo: Jeebon O Jog was written at a time when any writing on Sri Aurobindo was frowned upon by the British government. The author interestingly brings out in this book the rational aspect of the split in the Surat Congress. His analysis also shows how the Congress party later adopted as its main themes Swaraj and Swadeshi—the mantra of the Nationalist Party of Sri Aurobindo and Lokmanya Tilak in the first decade of the twentieth century.
Leaving politics for spiritual work, Sri Aurobindo developed a method of spiritual practice that he called Integral Yoga. The central theme of his vision was the evolution of human life into a divine life.

xPrasenjit Sen
Dr. Prasenjit Sen considers himself to be blessed to have received the Grace of The Mother at the early age of 12, when, accompanied by his father Promode Kumar, he arrived at Sri Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry. The Mother granted him permission to join the “Group” in the playground of the Ashram. This was the beginning of six decades of a sheltered life under the Grace of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother. Prasenjit completed his education in science and technology culminating in a Ph.D and in the service career attained the post of Director IT in Air India. He is young at 75, still active, and associated with Symbiosis Centre for Information Technology in teaching and research.
