Richard Eggenberger (Narad) is a highly regarded poet, writer, opera singer, horticulturist and videographer. His thousands of videos may be seen on his websites motherandsriaurobindo and Richard Eggenberger. His more than fifty books include ‚The Handbook on Plumeria Culture‘ and ‚The Handbook on Oleanders‘. He is also the author of the ten volume series – ‚Inspiration from Savitri‘, Sri Aurobindo’s magnum opus, as well as the books ‚Homage to the Service Tree‘, ‚Roses for the Soul‘, ‚Flowers for the Soul‘, ‚Gardening for the Soul‘, ‚Lexicon of an Infinite Mind‘, the ‚Supplement to the Lexicon‘, ‚The Descent of a New Music‘ and numerous volumes of homages to great people, as well as twenty books of poetry. Narad came to the Sri Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry from his physical home in America in 1961 to his spiritual home, India, where he now resides.
In these recent years, especially in Auroville and the last days of my life in America, I have been granted the blessing of poems descending en masse, often writing many a day. I cannot assess the quality but certainly they came without difficulty, and as they descended I expressed my gratitude to Sri Aurobindo, who has helped so many to write poetry. I leave it to those of greater knowledge to determine whether there is any value in them.
