Sri Aurobindo

Letters of Sri Aurobindo

SABCL 26

Fragment ID: 7562

The series of articles he wrote in the “Indu Prakash” were on Indian civilisation, entitled: “New Lamps for Old”.

This title did not refer to Indian civilisation but to Congress politics. It is not used in the sense of the Aladdin story, but was intended to imply the offering of new lights to replace the old and faint reformist lights of the Congress.
