Early issues were printed in Madras, later on publication was relocated to the ashram at Pondicherry.

A series of six articles from Sri Aurobindo's early writings (the Baroda period), comprising "Philosophy of the Upanishads" and one "On Translating the Upanishads", appeared in "The Advent" in 1953. A number of aphorisms and later poems and also translations of a number of hymns to Indra (the latter was later published in "The Secret of the Veda") have also appeared.
