Dear Friends,
As the last installment of our series on the early years of Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry, we are publishing some more photographs of the early inmates of the Ashram. A number of these photographs were gifted to us by Shri Nirmal Singh Nahar and Ms. Gauti Pinto. We take the opportunity to thank them for their priceless gifts.
With warm regards,
Anurag Banerjee

Great, and congratulations.
would appreciate if you also put dates along with the photos, datesof when the photographs were taken
Dear Mahesh-ji,
Unfortunately we don’t know have any records showing when the photographs were taken. So it is difficult to put the dates.
With warm regards,

nice photos!
Really nice work, keep it up !
I quite agree with Debjani. The photos are a real treat! Thank you.
Except Datta’s photo, I do not recollect having seen any of the other photograph even in the collection of the Mother upstairs, esp. with the names of each one.
It is a good treasure !
Would appreciate if a small biography of these sadhaks could also be added
Dear Ratna-di,
It is a very good suggestion that you have given. We would definitely try to collect the biographical details of the sadhaks.
With warm regards,
Anurag
Overman Foundation is doing commendable work for the benefit of us, devotees, in its various activities. Congratulations, Anuragbhai !

Photographs along with the Mother & Sri Aurobindo’s comments(if any) about them could flavour their spiritual personality.
