Devotional glue has proved to be more firm and enduring

Tweets in original by Tusar Nath Mohapatra (b. 1956), the Founder of Savitri Era Party (2007), Savitri Era Religion (2006), and Savitri Era Learning Forum (SELF-2005)

Those of us came to The Mother & Sri Aurobindo before reading any of their books or understanding high philosophy, the religious dimension is immensely crucial. Critical appreciation supplied the necessary grip later but the devotional glue has proved to be more firm and enduring

There was no Internet and the message of Sri Aurobindo could reach me when I was in the primary school in an Odisha village. Let's hope that Auroville becomes trigger for right dissemination of The Mother's vision from the very Evolutionary fundament to the Supramental firmament.

Those of us accept The Mother & Sri Aurobindo as the Supreme Divine must be careful not to associate them with old formulas, mantras, or mythology. This universal faith must establish its uniqueness without any compulsion of hiding behind the non-threatening phrase Integral Yoga.
A corollary is The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are the Supreme Divine even if they didn't write anything or committed many blunders. Perhaps there would be other indicators but they belong to the realm of faith. It matters little proclamation of March 30, 1914 has encapsulated it all.
Tweets above question the published books that raises the important issue of how can we be so selective and who decides? Text is sacrosanct for the academic method and any violation would open the floodgates of a free for all. Yet the challenge is real and tons of sagacity needed
There's a narrative how Sri Aurobindo achieved successive spiritual realisations based on some of his own comments. A similar thread runs through The Mother's life too. But for believes like us, these are all superficial stories; they were the Supreme Divine from the very birth.
The Mother & Sri Aurobindo as Supreme Divine (and not mere avatar) is a matter for believers and within them different varieties exist. But their writings belong to a certain time and context which needs to be kept in mind. Mantric aspect and transformative power however are crux
Taking a literal and concrete meaning of Sri Aurobindo's predictions needs to be avoided. His nishkama karma comment wrt Cripps episode is quite illuminating in this context. His stand on many other issues like AIT or Sanskrit are better moderated in view of changed circumstances
What we study under the school and college syllabus is by no means the only way of knowing the truth. Sri Aurobindo's explanation hasn't received any official sanction nor the West pays any attention. Hence the responsibility is absolutely yours; to discover and digest his books.
Started in August 2009 as a Quarterly, S'raddha is no longer available in hard copy. Ideally, each issue should have been published as a separate book for longer shelf-life. Given its high quality content on Sri Aurobindo, I procured some old issues and hope to complete the set.
Democracy is a myth; at best a theoretical construction. Good as a toy but to talk of perfection is deception. Diversity in India is the biggest hurdle for Democracy growing root. So true Democracy remains a dream. What we undergo is hypocrisy. Media amplifies this epiphenomenon.

There is no denying that it's one thing to talk of high principles of education enunciated by The Mother & Sri Aurobindo and another when it comes to actually teaching in a classroom situation. Dynamics of human psychology having its full play is not an easy territory to handle.
Just read an article by a former FBI hand on identifying dishonest persons. Anyone mentioning the word Dharma should also be added to the list since no one can practice it. But like "Romance is widely read, commercially successful, and the perfect escapist genre" Dharma too sells
Although, The Mother & Sri Aurobindo didn't make a virtue of austere life like Gandhi, the Ashram was not very different due to economic reasons. Their advice on conquering money is well known; but the practical aspect of it continues to be tainted with compromises and turpitude.
Oppose BJP but don't throw your weight behind the opposition to BJP. That will push India to old chicanery in the name of liberalism and plurality. India needs Sri Aurobindo's vision and Savitri Era Party is engaged in its dissemination. There's no other viable third alternative.
Sounds apt but who will decide what was his central proposition? His works can be seen as sequential where he continued to explore new frontiers. Nothing is less important for Sri Aurobindo. From tinkering with prosody to crafting Science fiction, all have evolutionary potential.
Western philosophy suffers from the feudal approach and India can never claim any respectable place within it. Patronising attitude towards classical Indian philosophy continues which obfuscates the scene. Philosophy education in colleges of India should begin with Sri Aurobindo.
My experience in life sans any professional expertise may not have universal relevance but by being part of the universal scenario, it certainly has elements that are important for deciphering collective patterns and projections. The individual, thus, is the fulcrum of evolution.
From November 24, 1926 when he attained his Siddhi to December 5, 1950 when he breathed his last, Sri Aurobindo was confined to single room. He was deeply concerned about the menace of Hitler and lent his force to fight him. Churchill and the British became his ally on this front
From Modi56 to Modi3x0 has been a long journey and Management must take the blame for this decline. Once again it has been proved that there are powers beyond human prudence and it's necessary to remain attuned to them. Siddhi Day of Sri Aurobindo on November 24 is a reminder.
Sri Aurobindo never left politics and all his books are replete with political concerns. His #FiveDreams broadcast on August 14, 1947 has wide ranging political ramifications. Savitri Era Party is an attempt for fulfilment of those dreams. No one should question my right to do so
Apology for demolition of the Babri Masjid will be the most magnanimous act for Hindutva. Dissolving Hindutva doctrine itself will be the best course for the future. Then only, people can appreciate the greatness of Sri Aurobindo and his relevance for the emancipation of mankind.

Basic things need to be repeated for new readers. The Secret of the Veda is the most important work of Sri Aurobindo in which he has delegitimised religious rituals and mythological fiction. By amending Sayana, Shankara, and Chaitanya, he has provided the most potent formulation.
Unless required professionally, I don't think it's necessary to interfere in the internal affairs of other nations and concentrate on our own thinking and worldview instead. The versatility of Sri Aurobindo is well known and an established fact.
You may be right. But the farmers too misused many rights and were rewarded. No risk, no reward.
Despite its might, Hindutva couldn't come to power on its own signifying serious lacuna. It's incumbent upon its intellectuals therefore to bring out the infirmities for educating the public. Let the Siddhi Day of Sri Aurobindo on November 24 be an eye opener for jettisoning them
Sri Aurobindo removes the middlemen and facilitates direct relationship with the Divine. His emphasis on inner growth instead of external paraphernalia is a tremendous help in modern atmosphere. No prescribed method or book makes Integral Yoga the most acceptable religious path.

As is well known, genuine Devotees of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are very less since most followers worship other gods and goddesses. Affiliation to other religions or allegiance to other gurus are also common. Rank outsiders dictate terms to Savitri Era Devotees. This must stop.

Rarely quoted but the ideas of Sri Aurobindo have percolated into the thoughts of many people with modern outlook. His interpretation of ancient Indian wisdom in a universalist framework and in consonance with science has become the bedrock of a dominant worldview. A big victory.
P. Chidambaram's article in The Sunday Express today surveys the social aspects and plurality but doesn't convey any higher goals for the individual or the humanity. Sri Aurobindo, on the contrary, aims at Vedic adventure of Consciousness and his Siddhi Day falls on November 24.
I don't think anyone has thought about the Aryan race more systematically than Sri Aurobindo and he doesn't foresee any extinction. His Vedic Evolutionary adventure of Consciousness is an invitation for everyone and not merely the Indians. Responding to his call is a duty of all.
