Some Indian babas r also claiming "Avatarhood"!!!! Sri Aurobindo, as Esha di heard once, said to her : " dui mohiruha, Ramakrishna n Sri Aurobindo"( 2 big trees: Ramakrishna n Sri Aurobindo). Both r living Avatars as we see by their impact on the world.

Note: Don't read Osho or Nigurananda if one doesn't have base of Philosophy of Yoga & Tantra. Only when one has base of both PLUS Bhagvat Gita, one should try his or her hand at both Masters. Enough for today. Am going back to reading.

Devdutt Pattanaik's writings show a persistent tendency to distort and fabricate. His outbursts on social media paint a picture of a man prone to hurling abuses when questioned and a remarkable inability to respond to valid criticisms, says @AbhinavAgarwal https://t.co/k6AvOFhOYM

The fountainhead of inspiration, analogies for communication of an Indic mind will be from Indic civilization, Indic experiences. Now, see how much the Cong-Left brings in Nazi,rather than Churchill, how much Swapan Jis, Kanchan Jis quote Nirad Chaudhuri Sahib as opposed 2 Subhas

Apparently Arundhati Roy has issued a statement regretting her high praise for the #Pakistan Army. This follows a cloudburst of criticism even by her fans. Her 'regret' is fake and not to be taken seriously. In any case, she seceded from #India long ago. #LeftLiberal

I remember Kanchan's regular column in The Pioneer when it was relaunched first three decades back spreading alternative perspectives. Some have pioneering roles and that should get due recognition. Countless people might have benefitted from such endeavours. Each word mattered.

My original contributions to understanding or interpreting Sri Aurobindo can be summarised under a number of heads:
1) Against Hindutva, Mythology, & Astrology
2) Vedas against Rituals
3) Against Vivekananda
4) Espousing Modernity & Democracy
5) Nationhood to States & languages.

Murali Sivaramakrishnan has dismissed research on Sri Aurobindo "as mere descriptive essays and interpretative monographs." Going beyond the texts to dwell in the free land of ideas is the real challenge; not the past but the future must capture attention. https://t.co/Ru1Hs7FHTg
