Founded by Anurag Banerjee on 29 March 2010 at Kolkata, Overman Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to the mission of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother which runs India’s only online research institute and the ‘Auro-Ratna’ Awards which recognizes the invaluable contribution of the workers of the Aurobindonian movement. It is not a religious organization but a centre of research and spiritual learning.
The motto of all the members of the organization can be best summed up in the following words of Sri Aurobindo:
‘The coming of a spiritual age must be preceded by the appearance of an increasing number of individuals who are no longer satisfied with the normal intellectual, vital and physical existence of man, but perceive that a greater revolution is the real goal of humanity and attempt to effect it in themselves, to lead others to it and to make it the recognized goal of the race. In proportion as they succeed and to the degree to which they carry this evolution, the yet unrealized potentiality which they represent will become an actual possibility of the future.’ (The Human Cycle, p. 261)
The administration of Overman Foundation is monitored by its Advisory Board whose members are Nirmal Singh Nahar (Founder-Trustee of Sri Aurobindo Bhavan, Kolkata), Prof. Kittu Reddy and Krishna Chakravarti.

This is really a novel as well as timely effort to make people in general and the youth in particular exposed to the invaluable treasures of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo as also help people like me who are trying to find entry into the vast and all encompassing kingdom of ideas of the Mother and the Master remain connected with the thoughts and writings of them as well as others who help us greatly in this regard.
