Synopsis In the Dialogue with Death, the author presents the superb mysticism of Sri Aurobindo as he has expounded it in his own inimitable style in the exquisite poem Savitri. Without any exaggeration, one may say that Sri Aurobindo’s Savitiri is not only a monumental work, it is indeed a book of the century. In this book, we see Sri Aurobindo’s many splendoured personality. Here he is seen as a yogi and a philosopher, a mystic and an occultist, a poet and a lover-all at once. The Dialogue with Death is based on the eleven talks on Savitri given by the author. In this book he presents the superb mysticism of Sri Aurobindo as he has expounded it in his own inimitable style, in exquisite poetry covering twenty-four thousand lines. The author’s interpretation of Savitri has only one aim and it is to induce more and more people to turn to the original work of Sri Aurobindo, for no interpretation however elevated it may be, can take the place of the original poem. Savitri is a book of perennial inspiration, for, it contains the quintessence of Sri Aurobindo’s great spiritual adventure which had only one aim: To bridge the gulf between Heaven and Earth so that: The Spirit shall look out through Matter’s gaze and Matter shall reveal the spirit’s face.
