Bringing Sri Aurobindo's knowledge to the forefront


Assorted tweets:

The Yoga of Sri Aurobindo is unique n unmatched by any other type. It stresses on peace instead of Asanas. " No illness can resist the peace of the Lord." If one does Asanas without peace in the nerves he/she is gone! Peace is primary in Sri Aurobindo's yoga.

The first and last condition of yoga is peace in the mind, vital n physical. After that one may try some Asanas. Sri Aurobindo stresses on the Word "Aum" to bring down peace in the cells of the body. No greater Pranamaya than "Aum". That is the supreme technique.


Our borrowed discourse on Feminism is a shame on our collective intellectual lethargy. Let’s do yourselves and our shallow gender balancing discourse a huge favour and redeem our deracinated self from intellectual poverty through this philosophico-literary gem.

All care should be taken against mithya pratishruti o brutha asfalana (false promises and vain assertions); nothing should be imposed on people in name of tradition. Life and society have developed without any clarity on their dynamics. Unsubstantiated beliefs need to be shunned.

Propagating specific knowledge systems without due scrutiny but with the intention of political mobilisation of people is downright deception. The question is who verifies and what are his credentials? Lack of transparency in such matters amounts to sycophancy and indoctrination.

Arranging events shouldn't be confused as making history. Similarly, a maze of ecosystems and echo chambers won't be construed as nation building. Dissent and disagreement is the cornerstone of creativity. Irreverence, and not imitation, should be the norm for critical appraisal.

The Life Divine is the highest achievement of human civilisation although only a handful on Twitter have read it. Many argue that the age old Indian civilisation will continue its journey but Sri Aurobindo has drastically altered the course of Evolution through his epochal works.

Philosophy is important for developing an open mind and respect for arguments or evidence. Most remain prisoners of tradition and rhetoric so much so that even a rigorous scholar like Sri Aurobindo is ignored. Index of the abysmally low level of intellectuality of present Indians.

Savitri Era Party came into being twelve years back in 2007. Bringing Sri Aurobindo's knowledge to the forefront is possible if his followers form a formidable force to reckon with. Solidarity and concerted action is essential for this lofty goal; Hindutva needs to be jettisoned.

Sri Aurobindo was well conversant with major schools of Indian philosophy and mythology. So undertaking fresh comparison is pointless. Even comparative studies with Western thinkers by S.K. Maitra is not very fruitful. Postmodernism is the only area which challenges Sri Aurobindo

I have not read him but many perceptive persons are recommending the books by Nigurananda (Professor Sachidananda Sarkar). You may check. There would be many others like him.
