Our film highlights the major milestones in Sri Aurobindo’s life from his childhood to his voyage to India in 1893 when he touched the soil of India. Wanting the liberation of India, he then launched Bande Mataram, and finally his arrival in Pondicherry on 4th April, 1910. All through his voyages, Sri Aurobindo’s sole determination was to achieve unity with God. As Romain Rolland says of Sri Aurobindo: “The last of the great Rishis holds in his outstretched hands the bow of Creation Impulse.” [1936]
