En el mundo del espíritu no hay fronteras, la ausencia de fronteras es lo propiamente espiritual. Un místico de hoy puede sentir a un místico de cualquier pasado, sea de su tradición o de otra, como a un verdadero hermano. A esta conclusión tan sencilla como universal llega el autor de Devoción en su versión de El peregrino ruso, un clásico del cristianismo ortodoxo y de la literatura devocional, así como en las principales enseñanzas de cara al autoconocimiento que extrae de su estudio, donde llega a declarar: 'Este es el libro que yo querría haberme encontrado cuando tenía veinte años.' Tras la extraordinaria acogida de sus últimos títulos, esta nueva obra de Pablo d'Ors nace con la inequívoca vocación de transformar definitivamente a sus lectores.

“Para mí, los Ashrams son seres con devoción y servicio.Todas las casas deberían ser un Ashram, con el marido y la mujer como devotos y cotrabajadores en el servicio a la humanidad. Que nos encontremos entre los servidores del mundo que trabajan para el Señor”.

Since the passing of Sri Aurobindo in 1950 many research Publications have seen the light of day dealing with various aspects of Sri Aurobindo's life-work and teachings. But to our knowledge no book has so far been published exclusively devoted to the study of Sri Aurobindo's humorous writings. the present book hopes to break new ground in this particular
field.
Apropos of Nirodbaran's Twelve Years with Sri Aurobindo he Mother had once remarked: "Thanks to Nirod, we have a revelation of an altogether unknown side of what Sri Aurobindo was. It is extremely interesting and very instructive." It is the fond and humble hope of the writer of the present work that the readers will find in its pages another not so well-known but lovable side of the Master's personality revealed in ample measure, To our happy surprise we shall meet here "not the Sri Aurobindo of Himalayan grandeur and aloofness, but the modern Shakespeare of spiritual sublimity and jollity".
This is a book on humour. But, as Prof. Stephen Leacock has pointed out, "Articles and books on humour are apt to resolve themselves into a series of jokes and stories, or to take on all the appalling dullness of undiluted theory." In the present work the author has tried to strike a happy mean. Hence the sub-title, "Sri Aurobindo's Humour: An Analysis and an Anthology". The book does not reduce itself to the task of a bare 'assembling' of jokes and witty remarks made by Sri Aurobindo nor does it degenerate into an unmitigated theorising. This is avowedly a book of research analysis, an analysis of The canons and principles and art of humour; but, in each case, appropriate examples have been immediately cited to illustrate the principle discussed, followed by a full quota of Sri Aurobindo
