In this paper we focus on Sri Aurobindo's view on religion of humanity. From the analysis of Sri Aurobindo’s ideal of nationalism, natioal integration and his vision of India , it is evident that he was not a chauvinist and his nationalism has universal appeal. From his writings a broad outline of national reconstruction and national integration can be derived. It has its different aspects, political, economic, social cultural and spiritual. The very basis always remains the same, the spiritual transformation of man and society. Here his nationalism transcends the limit of nation and enteres into the realm of universality. If it can be based on the ideal of human unity, it will become a permanent and fundamental unity. This plan of reconstruction and integration are to be infused with religion of humanity. This is not the intellectual religion of humanity but a spiritual religion of humanity. This can only lead to a strong and social foundation of human unity. This universal and integral outlook of Sri Aurobindo is to be seen in common with that of John Ruskin, Tolstoi, Gandhi, Rabindranath, Sorokin, and Swami Ranganathanananda. An altogether different approach of human integration comes from M. N. Roy. Whatever were their approaches, the emphasis remained the same - a concern and love for humanity. They drew their inspiration from religion and approached a comprehensive understanding of human and the universe by combining material - scientific and spiritual insights. The basic principle of their thought was the religion of humanity.

Sri Aurobindo, humanity, vision, universe.
