Art is nothing less in its fundamental truth than the aspect of beauty of the Divine manifestation.
SRI AUROBINDO
If you want art to be the true and highest art, it must be the expression of a divine world brought down into this material world.
SRI AUROBINDO
In a sense spirituality is the highest art, the art of life; for it aims at creating a life of beauty pure in line, faultless in rhythm, replete with strength, illumined with light and vibrant with delight.
