Twice nominated for a Nobel Prize, Sri Aurobindo is remembered today both for his role in Indian independence and his development of Integral Yoga. As his principal work of philosophy, The Life Divine details the origins of the cosmos, its ultimate goals, and our role within the whole process. At over 1100 pages in length, Aurobindo exhaustively describes how the divine, called Brahman, expresses itself in the world. The world, then, is not mere illusion (maya) but a constantly evolving manifestation of God. Humanity, through the process of Integral Yoga, can aid in their own evolution, reaching new realms of consciousness such as Overmind or Supermind.
