Vol. 1

August 1914 - July 1915.

The philosophical Review ARYA was started in August 1914 and after six and half years it ended with the January 1921 issue. It was published under the joint editorship of Sri Aurobindo Ghose, Paul & Mirra Richard. A French edition was also issued but its publication ceased with the February 1915 issue after the first seven numbers appeared. Very few sets of this valued journal are available now and even these are crumbling and cannot be used for reference. They are being reprinted, photographically reproduced, in a limited edition for archival purposes.

It may be noted that most of the writings of Sri Aurobindo in the ARYA were later revised by him and published in book form.

MONTHLY REVIEW.

The '^: ARYA " is a Review of pure philosophy.

The object which it has set before itself is twofold :—

1.A systematic study of the highest problems of existence ;

2.The formation of a vast Synthesis of knowledge, harmonising the diverse religious traditions of humanity occidental as well as oriental. Its method will be that of a realism, at once rational and transcendental,—a realism consisting in the unification of intellectual and scientific disciplines with those of intuitive experience.

This Review will also serve as an organ for the various groups and societies founded on its inspiration.

The Review will publish :—

Synthetic studies in speculative Philosophy.

Translations and commentaries of ancient texts.

Studies in Comparative Religion.

Practical methods of Inner culture and self development.
