Step back into the magical early days of the Ashram in this 16th episode of our series, "Sri Aurobindo Ashram - The Early Years." In this beautiful continuation, we are once again joined by Ushaben and Chunibhai as they share precious, lesser-known stories of the elder sadhaks and their intimate experiences with The Mother.

This episode captures the profound spiritual atmosphere of the early days, demonstrating how the Mother guided the sadhaks to see the living consciousness in everything around them—from nature to engineering projects.

In this episode, we explore:

The Bridge Over the Ganges: Chunibhai shares a fascinating story of an engineer named Pradyot, whose bridge construction kept collapsing until the Mother asked a profound question: "Did you take the permission of the Ganges?"

The Living Spirit of the Service Tree: A touching recollection of when people complained about the low-hanging branches of the Service Tree hitting their heads, and the Mother’s timeless response: "They must learn how to bow."

The Mother's Touch on the Heart: Ushaben recalls a deeply personal and vivid moment of the Mother pinning a rose directly over her heart, leaving an unforgettable inner imprint of love and awareness.

Memories of Elder Sadhaks: The guests share inspiring anecdotes and glimpses into the lives of the early disciples who formed the spiritual bedrock of the Ashram.

Whether you are commuting, practicing yoga, or simply taking a break from the screen, let these "beautiful reminiscences" accompany your day as we rediscover the timeless grace that defined the early Ashram days.
