Audiobook rendition of The Life Divine

PRISMA announced in its August 2025 Newsletter that in collaboration with many people and with Auroville Radio, it has released an audio version of the first 15 chapters of Book One of Sri Aurobindo’s Magnum Opus The Life Divine. The recording has been voiced by Deepti Tewari. This audio project is offered on a gift economy basis. It can be accessed at www.life-divine-audiobook.com as well as through the Prisma Audio Books podcast, available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other major podcast directories.

PRISMA has also launched SupraText, a powerful new app designed to simplify access to and enrich understanding of Sri Aurobindo's extensive works. Conceptualised and designed by a group of researchers, SupraText allows for chapter-by-chapter analysis of Sri Aurobindo's works, such as The Life Divine or Savitri. The app also allows the user to search for specific terms and displays word clouds which visualise which other words are connected to the searched term and how frequently they appear. SupraText is envisioned as a precision tool for scholars and authors. Currently, SupraText offers an interface for Book One of The Life Divine; the vision is to eventually create interfaces for the entire Collected Works of Sri Aurobindo and to offer mobile access, translations, and improved responsiveness.

The idea for Supra Text was conceived by Dr Frieder Herb, a German physicist who wanted such a high-powered tool to facilitate his own research into Sri Aurobindo’s texts.
