Chapter 8Appendixes

The two pieces that follow are connected with The Ideal of Human Unity and War and Self-Determination. Ap- pendix I is a note Sri Aurobindo wrote during the 1930s or 1940s with reference to a proposed solution of inter- national problems on the basis of principles put forward in The Ideal of Human Unity. Appendix II consists of a fragment found in a notebook containing miscellaneous writings by Sri Aurobindo. It appears to be a draft for the opening of an essay like those included in War and Self-Determination. It is clear from its content that it was written not long after the end of World War I, perhaps in 1919.
