==The education of a human being should begin at birth and continue throughout his life.==
The aim of this page is to read the works of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother and apply it in our lives. We read through various topics to delve deeper in each of them. Here is what The Mother says about how to read the works of Sri Aurobindo. ''“It is not by books that Sri Aurobindo ought to be studied but by subjects—what he has said on the Divine, on Unity, on religion, on evolution, on education, on self perfection, on supermind, etc., etc.” '' ''“If you want to know what Sri Aurobindo has said on a given subject, you must at least read all he has written on that subject. You will then see that he seems to have said the most contradictory things. But when one has read everything and understood a little, one sees that all the contradictions complement one another and are organised and unified in an integral synthesis.”'' ‎<youtube>ikS_3jJqZG4</youtube> =The education of a human being should begin at birth and continue throughout his life.= Education to be complete must have five principal aspects corresponding to the five principal activities of the human beingthe physical, the vital the mental, the psychic and the spiritual.
