NOTES

Who will come with me? Who will climb with me? Sri Aurobindo wrote "Invitation" in Alipore Jail, where he was held from 5 May 1908 to 6 May 1909. It was first published in his weekly newspaper Karmayogin on 6 November 1909, under the inscription "(Composed in the Alipur Jail)". This film follows the poem stanza by stanza and lets it be answered across the ages: by the Upanishads and the Gita, by Dante and Milton, by Tennyson, Whitman and Shelley, and by Tagore and the Tao Te Ching. From Dante's Abyss to Sri Aurobindo's Heights.
