    About Sri Aurobindo

    Sri Aurobindo Ghose was a visionary Indian philosopher and nationalist leader who developed Integral Yoga to accelerate human spiritual evolution. Born in Calcutta in 1872, he was educated at King's College, Cambridge, before returning to India. During the 1900s, he became a prominent leader in the Indian independence movement, editing the influential newspaper Bande Mataram. Following a profound spiritual awakening while imprisoned in Alipore, he abandoned active politics and moved to Pondicherry in 1910. There, he founded the Sri Aurobindo Ashram and authored monumental philosophical masterworks, including The Life Divine and the epic Savitri. While distinct from contemporaries who introduced Kriya Yoga to the West through the Self-Realization Fellowship and Autobiography of a Yogi, his unique thought harmonized Eastern mysticism with Western evolutionary ideas. His visionary philosophy also directly inspired the creation of Auroville, an international township dedicated to progressive human unity. Today, his expansive teachings on divine consciousness continue to inspire philosophers and spiritual seekers across the globe.

    🌙Vedic birth chart & birth timeBirth time: not on record

    A genuine Vedic Kundli for Sri Aurobindo would need their exact birth time and place, and those are not in the public record. The Ascendant (Lagna), house placements, Nakshatra and Dasha timeline all change with just a few minutes' difference — so we don't invent a time or quietly default to noon. This profile therefore shows only what the birth date can honestly support: Sun sign, Moon sign (Rashi), Chinese zodiac and Life Path.
