The symbol of Sri Aurobindo.
The descending triangle represents
Sat-Chit-Ananda.
The ascending triangle represents the aspiring answer from
matter under the form of life, light and love.
The junction of both - the
central square - is the perfect manifestation having at its centre the Avatar of
the Supreme - the lotus.
The water - inside the square - represents the
multiplicity, the creation.
