I hadn't heard the 'from Greece' origin for Vedic

astrology. Is that from Linda Johnsen's _Lost Masters_

book (which I haven't read)?

A few years ago I spent some time reading Aurobindo. Or

rather, I spent a bunch of time spinning my wheels trying to read

Aurobindo, and then ended up getting a little traction with

M.P. Pandit's books on Aurobindo. I particularly recommend Pandit's

_Heart of Sadhana_ on Aurobindo's _The Mother book_.

 

While I ended up (I think) with an appreciation of Aurobindo,

I would't go so far as to say I find him or his work *personally* inspiring.

 

So what (writings or concept or ???) inspires you re: Aurobindo?
