How to rescue Nationalism from RSS/BJP

@SavitriEraParty: It should be an eye opener why YY's political itinerary met with disappointments. It's ignoring path of Sri Aurobindo http://t.co/EbPbEXNHzs
@SavitriEraParty: @IndiaOpines While dwelling on the magnetic pull of Nationalism, YY remembers Manipur. But the right direction is Puducherry & Sri Aurobindo.
@SavitriEraParty: Sri Aurobindo has laid out his #FiveDreams and enunciated the path of Integral Education and Yoga in order to achieve those noble goals.
@SavitriEraParty: The most crucial question embedded within the long interview of YY is how to rescue Nationalism from RSS/BJP and the answer is Sri Aurobindo.
@SavitriEraParty: Perhaps a well earned lesson for Yogendra Yadav in the primacy of Nationalism that is bound to end in Sri Aurobindo. http://t.co/rxRcnRWFXI
@SavitriEraParty: @jairajp No doubt AAP is strongly pitted in Delhi and is likely to taste power but its intellectual background to exist has not taken root.
@SavitriEraParty: @Tamil1947 @jairajp Apprehensions linger since AAP is making an audacious attempt to capture power without any base or previous popularity.
@SavitriEraParty: @Tamil1947 @jairajp Policies develop over time and are not a problem; more important is the ideology that acts as the glue to unite members.

Keep the RSS and the Congress out

@SavitriEraParty: Tribalism prevents from seeing that the Emperor is naked. Even the liberating power of education fails to trigger free thinking & choosing.
@SavitriEraParty: Tribalism imparts a powerful pull toward the Religion one is born into but it's no virtue. Finding out the best path available is diligence.
@SavitriEraParty: Tribalism induces to cling to the dominant groups but the beauty of democracy lies in niche ideals that survive with rudimentary support.
@SavitriEraParty: @Bhairavaprasada @WordOfTheFree @AgentSaffron @venkateshkm So we even need a Greek national to put sand in our eyes! http://t.co/iYeaS6Pl9G
@SavitriEraParty: Surprising that myriad analysts on Twitter never find it interesting to perform an honest comparison between Vivekananda and Sri Aurobindo.
@SavitriEraParty: All glorification of India's past must rhyme with right politics at present. Not Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo turns out to be the safe guide.
@SavitriEraParty: Each State presents own & the overall picture is confusing but the overarching formula for 2014 is clear: Keep the RSS and the Congress out.
@SavitriEraParty: The logic of the SVD or BLD still rules the dominant minds in India as Congress couldn't escape from Dynasty and RSS from Medieval mentality.
@SavitriEraParty: The BLD initiative that precipitated forty years back & changed the course of Indian political history harbours great potentials even today.
@SavitriEraParty: Movements & alliances are transitory phenomena since our Constitution is biased towards single Party ruling the country. BLD can re-emerge.
@SavitriEraParty: In the absence of definite & viable alternative people's choice don't get reflected accurately. BLD can present itself as serious contender.
@SavitriEraParty: Pragati Legislature Party was formed in 1973 by Utkal Congress, Swatantra Party & others in Odisha that paved formation of BLD a year later.
@SavitriEraParty: No one should dream of 272 in 2014 without UP, Bihar, Bengal, and Odisha. Why do people prefer self-deluding stories is indeed a mystery!
@SavitriEraParty: @Realist_Indian Yeah, in terms of the floating vote since SP's base is more than secured.
@SavitriEraParty: @RaisinaSeries @hemantbhatia The RS route for PM is a fraud on the intention of the Constitution of India which needs to be done away with.
@SavitriEraParty: Vinoba, JP, & V.P. Singh have given India the most penetrating political interventions through their versatility and engagement with masses.
@SavitriEraParty: @Realist_Indian Nehru wrote a few books which still serve as fodder for a whole generation of Leftist scholars to fuel publishing industry.
@SavitriEraParty: @kesarmakwanou Style belongs to personal preference as aesthetic choices undergo change as one ages. Fidelity rather is of greater concern.
@SavitriEraParty: @kesarmakwanou Oh! Great. Reading it is like viewing a period movie; one has to go back in time to enjoy the frames fully. Happy reading!
@SavitriEraParty: Those who find it hard to digest Sri Aurobindo's treatises on Philosophy and Yoga can take up the 5 Plays written by him as an entry point.
@SavitriEraParty: @sarvatragam Nothing personal, but it's symptomatic of how distant is Sri Aurobindo from the mind-space of both Right and the Left in India.
@SavitriEraParty: The vision of Sri Aurobindo will take effect on the shoulders of the lovers of Sri Aurobindo. It hardly matters if sundry eggheads block it!
@SavitriEraParty: TL not for addressee alone [harshpolicy: @SavitriEraParty I genuinely respect Aurobindo but if you spam my TL again sir you will be blocked]
@SavitriEraParty: @harshpolicy I exercise my freedom on Twitter and so do you. It'd be history if you consider Sri Aurobindo as spam!
@SavitriEraParty: @harshpolicy They have served their purpose well so that upon their firm backdrop the vision of Sri Aurobindo can be painted most vividly.
@SavitriEraParty: @harshpolicy With ample borrowings from Sri Aurobindo and his Integral Ontology that is now well-acclaimed all over the world. #FiveDreams
@SavitriEraParty: @thinkoutofbox Imagining a world free of evil is a far off dream & only by collaborating with The Mother & Sri Aurobindo it may be achieved.
@SavitriEraParty: @kesarmakwanou Hope you discover a new India through the story of Sri Aurobindo and his observations on wide ranging topics. Happy reading!
@SavitriEraParty: @harshpolicy Tradition is no unmixed territory and, if espoused uncritically, can be disastrous. Sri Aurobindo lends the critical apparatus.
@SavitriEraParty: @harshpolicy The Mother & Sri Aurobindo, when they first met a century back on March 29, 1914, made sure that a new integration dawns.
@SavitriEraParty: @VikasSaraswat Sri Aurobindo has already factored in such history of the world and prescribed necessary behavioural changes on our part.
@SavitriEraParty: @VikasSaraswat No one can direct own life's journey & external influences do alter our thought & action. Religious affiliation is cultural.
@SavitriEraParty: @VikasSaraswat Some1 is not a fixed creature & is a product of his times & genes. Age & experience teach him & turn him an agent of change.
@SavitriEraParty: @VikasSaraswat You have used the word "witness" in an abstract sense and Mathematics is also abstract. Blueprint is essential for building.
@SavitriEraParty: @VikasSaraswat Evolution is like the Earth rushing forth in its orbit; we hardly notice it. Its action is uniform upon the whole human race.
@SavitriEraParty: @VikasSaraswat You seem to assume the present as fixed whereas it's Evolutionary for Sri Aurobindo as more & more people come to his thought.
@SavitriEraParty: @ashutoshibn7 Only Sri Aurobindo knew precisely which way to follow and even lent his support to the Cripps Mission. But others were blind!
@SavitriEraParty: @AgentSaffron Neither Savarkar nor Ambedkar is a solution to the present problems. Only Sri Aurobindo surpasses the secular/communal binary.
@SavitriEraParty: @irfhabib Imagining the old religions as something fixed is at the heart of all disharmony. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo hew the way out.
@SavitriEraParty: @anityakr Subjective assessment of prevailing political climate soaked in personal wish. Not to be taken too seriously; future is uncertain.
@SavitriEraParty: @RavikiranRao Sri Aurobindo holds that the original perhaps consisted of first 6 chapters with next 6 as additions. Last 6 came much later.
@SavitriEraParty: @hmadhok Politicians also suffer failure, humiliation, and rejection as power is neither permanent nor assured. These are religious virtues.
@SavitriEraParty: @SandeepDikshit @gsurya Right ground for dividing UP into four segments so that such statistics sounds less alarming and governance returns.
@SavitriEraParty: @anityakr That's difficult to predict and depends upon the quality of campaigning at local level. Caste of the candidate is also important.
@SavitriEraParty: All said and done, UP is going to decide who would be PM in 2014. The likely position is: SP- 40, BSP- 20, BJP- 10, RLD- 5, Cong- 3, AAP- 2.
@SavitriEraParty: @sujataanandan @scotchism @rupagulab No sleight of hand needed. State-wise numbers favour Advani as the most acceptable person as PM in 2014.
@SavitriEraParty: @BhaskarChat Advani's praise is for Gujarat alone, not beyond. That's his old stand.
@SavitriEraParty: @gopimaliwal Democracy makes it incumbent on all citizens to ponder over public affairs and scrutinising political parties & their policies.
