Sri Aurobindo

Thoughts and Aphorisms

Karma

• There is nothing small in God’s eyes; let there be nothing small in thine. He bestows as much labour of divine energy on the formation of a shell as on the building of an empire. For thyself it is greater to be a good shoemaker than a luxurious and incompetent king.

Bhakti

• God’s servant is something; God’s slave is greater.
