The Mother & Sri Aurobindo have spoken about the supraphysical and subliminal realms but Auroville and its surrounding areas have become a fertile ground for centres selling unverified claims of healing, yoga classes, and other such group practices. Spirituality gets a bad name.
It may not be palatable to many but I'm repeating this theme for right perspective to stabilize. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo have written much on practice of yoga but no example of any success exists. So they being the Supreme Divine and their philosophy should be seen separately.
Religious Studies isn't a full fledged subject in India as a result of which many erroneous Hindutva notions perpetuate. Due comparative analysis presents a different picture, colonial distortions notwithstanding. Belittling our debt to the West isn't a sound or honest propensity
People in the villages are not very well educated and rarely read books. Not only they are ignorant of all those crowding the pages of history books but also numerous characters that the famous titles of fiction have immortalised. They deal with the real world and the real people
My views are simple and straight forward and it's a matter of immense satisfaction that no one else is able to voice what I have been telling over the years. Savitri Era Party and Savitri Era Religion have unique roles to play in shaping the future of the country and the world.
A proscenium stage changes the background scene with every act but the play unfolds as per the script. Life, on the contrary, is evolutionary despite the patterns deciphered by poets, playwrights, novelists, or psychologists. We need to aspire to discern that; the Vedic Dakshina.
Moore had justifiably complained against Sri Aurobindo's distorted depiction of the West in Integral Philosophy of Sri Aurobindo. But Sri Aurobindo has spoken high of Christian mystics at many places and his portrayal of Blake, Coleridge, and Nietzsche as elevated seers is vital.

Savitri Era Learning Forum (SELF) was established in 2005 by Tusar Nath Mohapatra , the Founder of #SavitriEra Religion & Savitri Era Party. It has been demanding adding #SriAurobindo to University syllabus.

Savitri Era Party was floated in 2007 by Tusar Nath Mohapatra , Founder #SavitriEra Religion. It has been successful in preventing Hindutva from appropriating #SriAurobindo by establishing an apt alternative

Savitri Era Religion was launched in 2006 by Tusar Nath Mohapatra , President of #SavitriEra Party. It doesn't allow worshipping other gods & goddesses or admire other gurus. No dual or multiple affiliation.

The first principle of teaching Sri Aurobindo is that he doesn't solve all philosophical problems. The second principle is that his Integral Yoga is no assurance of systematic spiritual progress. The third principle is that his sociopolitical ideas are of little practical utility.
I keep on repeating the demand for change of syllabus but that alone is not sufficient. Teachers above forty are not competent to teach present day students. The generation gap is too wide. Never before in human history such drastic changes took place within span of two decades.
No one can predict the future including astrologers. Yes, each one is entitled to his or her fond hopes and it's called speculation. To give it a more credible or prestigious status is deception. To accept this reality is humility. To ask why the world is like this is philosophy.

Offered my pranam before the photograph of Sri Aurobindo at the Chandannagar Railway Station platform. Let's hope, The Mother's photo too is placed left to it, some day. Sri Aurobindo was in hiding here during February and March in 1910. A statue of him is there in the Riverside.

Hegel presented a scathing social critique. Indian thought haunted Hegel and thus he railed against the caste system oupcanada.com/catalog/978019
No paper is complete without quoting ten to fifteen thinkers from different countries and centuries with widely differing attainments and temperaments. Their names with varied spellings and pronunciation is itself an aesthetic experience independent of the theme of the discourse.

Warrants a full length article with due documentation. Absence of such rigour is leading to a climate of obfuscation.
Whether the books of ethics were written after observing human behaviour or from imaginary scenario of perfection is not certain. As many persons do well without reading these books, an innate set of qualities can be postulated. But they are typal and Spirituality is evolutionary
Positivism, Utilitarianism, and Empiricism took away the element of drama from life and history by delegitimising teleology. Everything was seen under the lense of suffering and exploitation and the need for retribution. In India, however, the concept of lila survives as cushion.
The Mother & Sri Aurobindo jointly are the most intellectually attractive persons in the human history but no firm assurance ought to be sought. Recognising their worth and utility is the most challenging task before the humanity. This is the demand of evolution and revolution.
Apart from general and professional education, reading a large collection of religious and cultural books is a big challenge. Doing a good selection is still more difficult. Most young Indians are victims on this count and should count on The Mother & Sri Aurobindo for guidance.

Sri Aurobindo, wrote Prof Sisir Kumar Maitra in 1942, has accomplished the “transfer of the leadership in philosophy from the West to India”
Western philosophy played hide and seek with god whereas Sri Aurobindo put god at the very door; in the opening paragraph of The Life Divine, to be precise. So, don't be intimidated by the magnitude of Western philosophy; read them as good literature. Be alert not to get trapped.

Auroville couldn't develop as per own plan because govt took it over. With Matrimandir as the temple of a new religion at the centre, the central issue is how the Devotees can get back #Auroville from the clutches of the Central govt. Strangely, no side is concerned about this.

Many foreigners have come in contact with India and some have lived in India due to Sri Aurobindo. A few have written books and articles too. But understanding Indian diversity is not easy and it's a handicap. Media modelled on the colonial lines perpetuates warped perspectives.

Everyone in Auroville seems to miss the woods for the trees and is barking up the wrong tree. No one can claim any special rights or knowledge in an anomalous situation. #Auroville as a religious place is under unjust rule. Its liberation from govt hands is the foremost priority.
1) The Mother built Matrimandir and Auroville for her Devotees.
2) Present administration has no right to secularise #Auroville or carry out needless development.
3) Once the Devotees of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo get back complete ownership, all aspects will be examined afresh.
Did the world learn anything from The Mother & Sri Aurobindo during the last one hundred years? Not much apparently; but the West couldn't produce any major ontologist after Heidegger. So, no new philosophy. Every branch of knowledge seems to be converging towards #SriAurobindo.
That Christianity has survived in the West for so long despite great advances in science as well as philosophy points to an Achilles' heel. An acute gangrene of irrationality of gigantic proportion hides somewhere which can explode if ignited with the right source of illumination
The Mother & Sri Aurobindo have repeatedly spoken about the demise of dominant religions and #SavitriEra Religion obviously is the future in which #Auroville and Matrimandir have vital roles. The Mother's Devotees need to be aware of this crucial necessity and demand govt to quit
From Heidegger's musings on technology and Benjamin's Art in the age of Mechanical Reproduction to Baudrillard's simulacra (via Klossowsky), all fall sort of the kind of mindless proliferation leading to loss of calibration that we witness today. And may be this is the beginning.

Neither the Ashram nor Auroville can be seen as representing the legacy of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo and are mere caricatures. Scholars will quote them to prove any point to their own liking and so should be taken with a dollop of salt. Concrete results ought not to be sought.
Replying to
The Devotees spread across the country and outside collectively constitute the true legacy. No fixed method or particular location is important. Worshipping The Mother & Sri Aurobindo as the Supreme Divine without harbouring doubts, questions, or comparisons forms the sunlit path
It's quite embarrassing that those lamenting about Sri Aurobindo not being taught in the schools have themselves not read his books. Spirituality aspect is not verifiable and hence can't pass academic scrutiny. The revolution is redundant and evolution is speculative philosophy.

India is yet to attract Western gaze in terms of sociological studies and Hindutva loves the pragmatic camouflage of a false religiosity. Human penchant for self-interest is at the heart of ideological ambivalence and lip service for culture and ethics. Festivals spur merrymaking.
