Man, the Thinking Animal A trifling unit in a boundless plan Amidst the enormous insignificance Of the unpeopled cosmos fire-whirl dance, Earth as by accident engendered man, A creature of his own grey ignorance, A mind half-shadow and half-gleam, a breath That wrestles, captive in a world of death, To live some lame brief years. Yet his advance, Attempt of a divinity within, A consciousness in the inconscient Night, To realise its own supernal Light Confronts the ruthless forces of the Unseen. Aspiring to godhead from insensible clay He travels slow-footed towards the eternal day. Sri Aurobindo
