'Savitri: A Legend and a Symbol' is Sri Aurobindo's epic poem of 12 books, 20000+ lines about an individual who overcomes the Ignorance, suffering, and death in the world through Her spiritual quest, setting the stage for the emergence of a new, Divine life on earth. It is loosely based on the ancient Indian tale of 'Savitri and Satyavan' from the Mahabharata.

Thank you for visiting, and may this site serve you well as you journey on your own path of spiritual progress.  -Roy Posner

"... everything is there: mysticism, occultism, philosophy, the history of evolution, the history of man, of the gods, of creation, of Nature. How the universe was created, why, for what purpose, what destiny - all is there.  You can find all the answers to all your questions there.  Everything is explained, even the future of man and of the evolution, all that nobody yet knows.  He has described it all in beautiful and clear words so that spiritual adventurers who wish to solve the mysteries of the world may understand it more easily."  --The Mother, on Savitri

"Not only is Savitri a vision for individual and collective self-fulfillment, but, as a mantra, it has a directly transformative effect on the inner consciousness." -- David Johnston, PhD, from "A Myth for our Time."
