The order of things
An the back of a small van, I have spent the last few days driving around Auroville to collect various items for the Pottersmarket. These small vans are the big brothers of the tuk tuks.

New Year

Intermiscence - Kena Upanishad
GI have just returned from a devotional meditation. It is the anniversary of Sri Aurobindo. He left his body 72 years ago, as they say here. I have been thinking and talking a lot about his commentaries on the Kena Upanishad for the last few days. I came across the word 'intermiscence'. It is almost only used by Aurobindo. [...]
