OM Sri Aurobindo Mira
Open my mind, my heart, my life to your Light, your Love, your Power. In all things may I see the Divine.
16-7-1938
Note: This was given by Sri Aurobindo to a sadhak who had asked him for a brief prayer with Sri Aurobindo’s and the Mother’s names to use as a mantra. While giving it, Sri Aurobindo wrote:
“I have written for you a brief prayer with the names in the form of a mantra. I hope it will help you to overcome your difficulty and get an inner foundation.” (16-7-1938)
On receiving the mantra the sadhak inquired:
“Have I to consider the names and the prayer as one mantra?”
Sri Aurobindo replied: “Yes”. (18-7-1938)
