Savitri Era of those who adore,

Om Sri Aurobindo & The Mother.

The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are the one Supreme Divine who are always present in their three poises. Savitri Era Religion is based on this simple belief without any complexities of the past religions. Those seeking proof will be disappointed except for their vast bulk of writings.

Savitri Era Party is against Hindutva but adopts a posture of supporting the Govt for its good actions. The Prime Minister bears the onerous responsibility of winning elections and hence he can be pardoned for resorting to theatre. This is a compulsion imposed by democracy, alas!

Psychological researches have advanced much in the field of Consciousness studies. So, those expounding on The Mother & Sri Aurobindo's writings on yoga should take care not to present them as self-evident truth. Rather they form broad hints towards a distant futuristic scenario.

Savitri Era Party is opposed to both BJP and the Congress. India is yet to have proper democracy and right people as rulers. What we witness now is caricature. Believing in the evolutionary philosophy of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo and their grace is the only option for revolution. 

Sri Aurobindo and The Mother were present at the time of Independence but somehow true democracy fails to flourish in India. Ethical atmosphere is unable to take root. It's safe to assume that it's part of the evolutionary intention and we may have to wait for a few decades more.

I don't think it's proper on the part of Alok Pandey to issue certificates as to who follows The Mother & Sri Aurobindo and in what way. Integral yoga is a direct relationship between them and the devotee. So there's absolutely no scope for any third party scrutiny or evaluation.

Sri Aurobindo and The Mother wrote when modernity was in vouge and literal reading of texts was the norm. Since then intermittent waves of postmodernism have transformed the intellectual environment. By portraying them as the one Supreme Divine, Savitri Era Religion alters focus.

Savitri Era Religion is the best option for the modern generation since worshipping The Mother & Sri Aurobindo as the one Supreme Divine amounts to collaboration with evolution for descent of the Supramental consciousness. No mythological fiction nor reliance on rituals required.

While reading their books provides a slow growth of appreciation towards them, worshipping The Mother & Sri Aurobindo as the one Supreme Divine, who are always present in their three poises, is the assured path of establishing an intimate relation of love, loyalty, and surrender.

Savitri Era Party rejects all current ideologies and in spite of all dismal situations keeps its hope on future predictions of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo. Following them with an attitude of devotion and surrender is the only way for ushering in a splendid destiny for the humanity. 

Savitri Era Religion rises above the complexities of older religions and philosophies. Based on the most modern and rational metaphysical system of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo, it serves the evolutionary purpose of collaboration with Earth consciousness towards Supramental descent. 

Proper names like Hindol Sengupta should be written as Hindol Sengupta and not as say, Dol Sengupta. Similarly, the name of Sri Aurobindo should be written as Sri Aurobindo and not in any other distorted manner. His name clearly appears on the cover of the books authored by him.

The most essential principle of Integral yoga is surrender to The Mother & Sri Aurobindo and seeking their grace. Savitri Era Religion facilitates worshipping them as the one Supreme Divine who are always present in their three poises. Path to be freed from mythology and rituals.

I read and write in English but there's no need for it in my conversations in the day-to-day life. Watching content in English or listening to music in English is also not part of my consumption. Odia, Hindi, and Bengali music form an important component of my aesthetic enjoyment.

Reading the books of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo regularly at a slow pace is an excellent means of steady mental growth. incarnateword.in/cwsa

Additionally, accepting them as the one Supreme Divine facilitates quick understanding of their philosophy and yoga. This may take time.

Evolution ensues from the realm of Consciousness but its results are ultimately noticed in the material domain. Current affairs, therefore, can be construed as indicators in a hide and seek fashion. Many are under the illusion that an imagined past narrative is the ideal paradigm. 

Savitri Era Party is against AAP, BJP, and Congress. It believes that the evolutionary philosophy of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo will materialise as per the #FiveDreams Manifesto of 1947. States should be granted Sovereignty so that the nucleus of a future #WorldUnion coagulates.

Various forces are fighting against BJP, but they lack the secret of defeating it. Secular or rational alternatives look alluring but they are spent forces. Politics around religion or castes too has lost its steam. Savitri Era Religion is the most potent weapon against Hindutva.

One benefit of being born in Odisha is that I'm not unduly influenced by Tulsidas, Tagore, or Shankaracharyas. Being a devotee of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo, I'm saved from following local cults like Jagannath or Bhima Bhoi. I have been campaigning against mythology and rituals.

Evolution is part of Biology, but Sri Aurobindo imparts to it a profound Ontological significance by linking it to the Vedic Psychology. However, the whole dynamics is a bit more complex. Worshipping The Mother & Sri Aurobindo as the one Supreme Divine is integral to the process.

I don't track international news much and hence it's difficult for me to gauge who is on which side and why. But one thing is clear that various religions are at the root of ongoing conflicts. As Founder of Savitri Era Religion (2006), this gives me immense hope and satisfaction.

Modi Govt. has done many good things especially in development arena. But that cannot be the reason to forget about what Hindutva has wrought to social harmony and democratic ethos. Emergency, similarly, had many positive results. But from the democratic angle, it was a disaster.

Understanding The Mother & Sri Aurobindo's philosophy by integrating different streams of thought from their various books is a difficult intellectual enterprise. But, ideological commitment to Hindutva can result in warped interpretation. Secular approach, similarly, is flawed.

Social, political, and economic issues continue to baffle humanity. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo have written much about them. The solutions they have pointed to, no doubt, are esoteric in essence. Savitri Era Religion, therefore, prefers to worship them as the one Supreme Divine.

Savitri Era: Savitri Era narrative is twenty years old savitriera.blogspot.com/2025/05/savitr…

Savitri Era of those who adore,

Om Sri Aurobindo & The Mother.

Understanding the essence of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo's relevance should be a minimum target for educated Indians, so that they don't suffer from inferiority complex vis-à-vis the West. For, their philosophy and yoga has real worth, in contradistinction to material superiority.

The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are the one Supreme Divine and hence it's erroneous and misleading to describe them as Guru, Avatar, or incarnation. They are always present in their three poises and lead the evolutionary march without any connection with old religions or philosophies.

1) By and large, the Nehruvian template remains intact.

2) State parties have broken the Single-party dominance.

3) Religion or Caste based ideologies are struggling.

4) Dynastic parties are bound to suffer setbacks.

5) Nationalism, per se, can't be an effective glue in politics.

A follower of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo can never support Hindutva if he has read their books. However extraneous factors may compel someone to do otherwise. Savitri Era narrative is guiding in this respect since 2005. Savitri Era Party believes that BJP is a bundle of falsehood. 

I write on public issues, but my prayers for personal welfare and sundry longings before The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are also implicit in them. Working for bigger causes takes care of smaller problems. The highest and the most audacious Vedic aspiration for man is for Immortality.

There can be a thousand justifications for reservations but Savitri Era Party demands abolition of all kinds of reservations by the Govt. All references to castes and religions should be deleted from the Constitution so that citizens are treated at par without any discrimination.

A third problem of intellectual life is it is so protectionist and parochial. It doesn't consider anything out of the syllabus topic like Sri Aurobindo as remotely consequential.

Naveen Patnaik was voted out last year. The same thing may happen to Mamata Banerjee. Nitish Kumar is showing mental imbalance and may go too. Modi has been in power for a long time and should be shown the door. Savitri Era Party demands adequate safeguards in the Constitution.

Democracy poses this unenviable task before a citizen to get elected by others in order to enjoy power. But why should others vote for him? What would be the reasons for others for being attracted towards him? There's no standard answer. Therefore, all this drama around Sindoor.

Both CPI and RSS are celebrating their Centenary this year, but it's an important coincidence that the same for Sri Aurobindo Ashram also happens to be the next year. These are three clear ideological streams which have relevance for the future of the country as well as humanity.

Born a decade after Independence, I was brought up in an environment of valuing Modernity and rationality. Following The Mother & Sri Aurobindo also reinforced my temperament. But three decades later, Ram Temple movement introduced irrationality which even the Courts accepted.

As more and more devotees and followers of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo succumb to the influence of Hindutva, it becomes increasingly important to be resolute in opposing it. I have been disseminating this message since 2005 and the effect is visible. The narrative war continues.

When Girilal Jain's The Hindu Phenomenon was published posthumously in 1994, it sent shock waves since his record as editor of The Times of India was exemplary. He wrote a Manifesto for Hindutva but today he would have been grossly disappointed at the quagmire the movement is in.

Never before in the history of India so much of action and drama was packed within such a short span of time. It's exactly like a film set. Terrorists kill. Social media furore. Invisible military operation. Trump. Ceasefire. Road show. All with a title borrowed from Ekta Kapoor!

All are free to pursue paths for their own satisfaction but Savitri Era Religion is the only rational course for collaboration with evolution. Seeking the grace of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo for descent of the Supramental consciousness is a task for all. No mythology nor rituals.

It's interesting that Sri Aurobindo identified The Mother as the Divine Mother and she, in turn, recognised him as the Supreme Lord. No one else had any idea of Divine status about them. Later on, disciples gathered around them and thus believing in their words is the only means.

They told their disciples to practice yoga which is known as Integral Yoga. At the most basic level, it has three principles. Aspiration for higher consciousness, Rejection of undesirable elements, and Surrender to The Mother. All these are psychological affairs, and method-free.

With more and more disciples joining, an Ashram had to be created. But the primary principle was work. Different departments were built so that work itself can be offered to the Divine to facilitate spirituality. However, it had no provision for family life or political activity.

Writings of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are vast and it's not easy to read them and compare. Savitri Era Religion is the simple option of following them without much intellectual burden. Worshipping them as the one Supreme Divine entitles one to their infinite love and compassion.

Sri Aurobindo has diverse facets and people come to him through different routes. But mere intellectual appreciation is a limitation. Even practice of Integral Yoga can be a hindrance. Savitri Era Religion presents the opportunity for surrender and transformation of human nature.

Marxists not only banished Sri Aurobindo from the history books but also ensured that neither his philosophy nor poetry is taught in the Universities. This continues till date. But their fear is elsewhere and it is real. Savitri Era Religion is going to encompass the whole world.

Savitri Era Religion faces resistance from Hindutva adherents on the one side and Leftists and rationalists on the other. Their pet argument is that The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are against starting a new religion. But unfortunately the Constitution has given the right to devotees.

Aspiring for a life of spirituality doesn't mean commanding mastery over human instincts and passions. Many tend to pose in such a manner but it's better to be pragmatic in this respect. Just by reading a couple of books by The Mother & Sri Aurobindo no one turns a saintly person. 

Savitri Era Religion doesn't impose exalted designations like a Sadhak or a Yogi. It's meant for ordinary human beings who are willing to be the devotees of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo. Surrender to them and seeking their grace for transformation of human nature is what's required. 

With access to Internet in 2005, I discovered the controversy surrounding Ken Wilber. High level of intellectual debates were going on which proved futility of knowledge. Then came the conflict over a book by Peter Heehs in 2008. By that time, I had launched Savitri Era Religion.

Integral Yoga came into operation when The Mother & Sri Aurobindo were there. Thus no one can assure about its efficacy after their departure. Savitri Era Religion is the simple path of worshipping them as the one Supreme Divine and seeking their grace sans mythology and rituals.

The wealth of wisdom that the West has amassed under Humanities is stupendous. But it would have been partial and one-sided had Sri Aurobindo not written his epochal books. Although his writings are not known very widely, still a genuine seeker of knowledge can locate his words.

You are requested to consult the CWSA volumes, instead of the SABCL, as they are the latest and incorporate wide-ranging revisions.

Standards of Conduct and Spiritual Freedom in The Synthesis of Yoga can be read as an allied theme.

Heavy tomes or high-flown English shouldn't be a barrier between Sri Aurobindo and the people. No need to be scared away by intricacies of Integral yoga too. Savitri Era Religion is the simple path of seeking the grace of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo who are the one Supreme Divine.

Many followers of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are staunch supporters of BJP and Modi, at present. That creates a wrong impression in the minds of the general public. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo aren't part of Hindu religion. Savitri Era Party has been opposing Hindutva since 2007.

Independence gave us democracy and modernity. Socialism was also the favoured ideology at that time. Millions of people benefitted from that environment. Current political situation tends to reverse many of the gains of that period. But that will be resisted. Fraternity will rule. 

Savitri Era Learning Forum (SELF) has been in operation since 2005 selforum.blogspot.com

This is an excellent repository of info and links relating to The Mother & Sri Aurobindo and allied subjects. A dozen other blogs too have been spreading knowledge during the last 20 years.

Looking through the lens of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo provides a refreshing perspective.

For precision, @grok is very much at your service. Hitler and His God: The Background of the Hitler Phenomenon by Georges van Vrekhem is a good book on the subject.

I have recommended a book and it's for the reader to decide. This platform is for everyone.

This was a thread on Churchill. We shouldn't litter the TL of MNR garu on sundry subjects. If you want to discuss and learn come to my TL separately.
