August 15, Sri Aurobindo´s birth anniversary Annual reminder of the agenda Evolutionary A journey towards a sublime human destiny Midst ignorance and suffering extraordinary Supramental Consciousness is very much in action What it needs is our unreserved collaboration.
Looking at history through the lens of Subhas can be as skewed as imagining everything in terms of Gandhi or Nehru. They have exhibited heroism or leadership but when it comes to visionary element, there´s no one who can match Sri Aurobindo. Revolution, yes but Evolution, urgent.
Excellent introduction by @AmanAlbelaa to the life and work of Sri Aurobindo, the greatest poet and philosopher of India, on the occasion of his 150th birth anniversary year celebrations from August 15. I speak on his current political relevance at 10:10. #FiveDreams #WorldUnion

Many thanks for giving me this opportunity for saying a few words on the political relevance of Sri Aurobindo, when the country is standing on the crossroads. Content is almost flawless and the voice is powerful. Kuldip Mishra, Gopa Basu, and Jagjit Singh also feature in capsule.
Winning elections by hook or by crook has become the norm. But, Democracy demands restraint, eschewing misrepresentation, and fair play. So, society needs men and women of character and a line of thinking or ideology is also required. Sri Aurobindo provides them in ample measure.
Apart from the Vedic deities like Aditi, Ila, Bharati, Mahi, etc correspondence wirh the four suns, viz., Varuna, Mitra, Aryaman, and Bhaga is an interesting aspect. Although roots can be traced to Iranian antiquity, four and five brothers in Ramayana and Mahabharata too resonate
One might possess all resources and plan meticulously but he has no control over future events. Can´t be sure of even his location. Well everything is not so erratic but unpredictability is a significant part of human affair. Gods and astrologers proliferate but equanimity is key
