15 August, 1972 was the beginning of Silver Jubilee of independence of India and the birth centenary of Aurobindo. Was it merely a coincidence? A coincidence which indicates much.

The Asiatic Society celebrated the centenary along with the nation. Dr. P. B. Mukharji held a seminar on 16 September 1972 which wsa inaugurated. Participating lecturers were Dr. A. C. Das, Shri R. C. Pal, and Professor A. K. Mazumdar were the commentators. Contents of this booklet of the Seminar Series are the inaugural speech the lectures and the comments.

In life here and after-life Aurobindo had and has an inseparable aureole with him.

Publication of this Seminar Series has been delayed because of it having been held up in expectation of comments promised. The promise however has not materialized.
