More on Aurobindo @keshavbedi from "Review of Collected Poems and Plays in the Times Literary Supplement (London) (July 8,1944)

"Of all modern Indian writers Aurobindo — successively poet, critic, scholar, thinker, nationalist, humanist — is the most significant and perhaps
the most interesting … In fact, he is a new type of thinker, one who combines in his vision the alacrity of the West with the illumination of the East. To study his writings is to enlarge the boundaries of one's knowledge …
He is blessed with a keen intuition. He knows that a man may be right and not wise. He treats each word of his as though it were a drop of elixir. In all this he is unique — at least in modern India. …
a yogi who writes as though he were standing among the stars, with the constellations for his companions."
