Sri Aurobindo è stato una figura chiave nel nazionalismo indiano e un pensatore profondo. Trasformatosi da combattente per la libertà a filosofo, si è dedicato ad articolare una visione del progresso umano e dell'evoluzione spirituale. Centrale nel suo pensiero è il concetto di evoluzione della vita verso una 'vita divina', considerando l'umanità come una fase di transizione verso un 'superuomo'. I suoi scritti approfondiscono la metafisica, la sintesi dello yoga e l'ideale dell'unità umana, mentre la sua poesia esplora temi di trasformazione spirituale.
