THE MESSAGE INSCRIBED ON SAMADHI :
"When Sri Aurobindo left his body he said that he would not abandon us. And in truth.....He has always been with us, guiding and helping all those who are receptive and open to his influence......... The future is for those who have the soul of a hero. The stronger and more sincere our faith, the more powerful and effective will be the help received." --The Mother.
