Sri Aurobindo's Integral Nationalism: Bridging the Gap Between his Seemingly Contradictory Spiritual and Secret Nationalist Life

Abstract

This paper has been published in Peer-reviewed International Journal "Remarking An Analisation" URL : https://www.socialresearchfoundation.com/new/publish-journal.php?editID=5638 Publisher : Social Research Foundation, Kanpur (SRF International) Abstract : Sri Aurobindo is seen most prominently as a spiritual leader and defender of Indian culture. However, a significant portion of his life consisted of both aggressive and passive resistance. He frequently tried to unite young Indian to be ready for armed revolution and openly advocated for it. His defence of violence and secret political activities can seem contradictory when compared to his spiritual philosophy and ideal of human unity. He advocated for both active and passive techniques for fighting for freedom in India. This research paper reexamines Sri Aurobindo’s extremist nationalist philosophies with his own integral approach so as to determine whether it was contradiction or integration which modeled Sri Aurobindo’s seemingly contradictory Spiritual and Nationalist lives.
