Homage to Arabinda Basu and Nolini Kanta Gupta

In a lifetime of more than eighty-two years, it has been a great privilege to meet many souls from different areas of the world, whom the Mother said would lead us into the New World. From the moment I met her in 1961, the Mother gave me the direction of my life; from that moment on, I was to meet very special souls who have touched my heart and poured their love on me.




The Homages series is a tribute and grateful acknowledgment of those souls.




I have already written of many of these in extensive articles. Many, but not all, were known to me as disciples and devotees of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. They gave me more than one could imagine in the transmission of their love and knowledge-a love and compassionate understanding that will continue through the ages.
