SRI AUROBINDO

Translations

from Sanskrit and Other Languages

Kalidasa

Bhartrihari. The Century of Life

On Fate

Fate Masters All

I saw the brilliant moon eclipsed, the sun

Baulked darkly of his radiant pilgrimage,

And halter-bound the forest’s mighty one,

The iron-coiled huge python in a cage;

Then saw the wise skilled brain a pauper, and said

“Fate only is strong whose hand on all is laid.”
