Only on the heart's veiled door the word of flame
Is written, the secret and tremendous Name.
Sri Aurobindo
THE GENIUS OF INDIA
In collaboration with Auroville Press
Venue: NCPA, Mumbai
August 2000
In an essay written in 1918 and entitled "The Renaissance in
India",
Sri Aurobindo describes the essential spirit of India,
the qualities and the powers characteristic of her genius.
Never before or since has the essential spirit of India been
described
in such an integral manner.
This exhibition was an attempt to bring this vision
to the public at large, especially youth. It consisted of
powerful photographs evoking the essence of India’s
past and present, and extracts from Sri Aurobindo's essay.
