Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Sri Aurobindo (1872–1950) was a prominent Indian philosopher, yogi, maharishi, poet, and nationalist. Many of his major philosophical writings first appeared in serial form in his monthly review, Arya (published between 1914 and 1921), and were later revised and published as independent books. According to academic and examination standards, the works are chronologically arranged as follows:

1. (B) The Mother (1928): This is one of Sri Aurobindo’s most famous shorter works, presenting a profound exposition on the divine nature, personality, and power of the Universal Mother. It was first published in book form in 1928.

2. (D) The Future Poetry (1953): First serialized in the pages of Arya from December 1917 to July 1920, this work on literary criticism and poetic theory was later compiled and published as a book in 1953.

3. (C) The Life Divine (1939/1940): Sri Aurobindo’s principal philosophical magnum opus, which explores the spiritual evolution of consciousness, was serialized in Arya from 1914 to 1919. The revised book version was published in 1939 (Volume I) and 1940 (Volume II).

4. (A) The Hour of God (1959): This is a posthumous compilation of Sri Aurobindo's notes and essays on yoga and spiritual practice, written at different periods during his life and first published in 1959.

5. (E) The Synthesis of Yoga (1958): Written concurrently with The Life Divine and serialized in Arya from 1914 to 1921, this detailed guide to integral yoga was published in revised parts posthumously, with the final complete book edition concluded in 1958.

Thus, matching these historical publication sequences establishes the correct chronological order as (B) → (D) → (C) → (A) → (E).
