All Nature dumbly calls to her alone.
To heal with her feet the aching throb of life.
- Sri Aurobindo (Savitri, 3.2.)
An old Odia ଓଡିଆ song by Raghunath Panigrahi.

A decade back, I had presented a paper in a Conference at Nitte contextualising The Mother & Sri Aurobindo's perspective which was published in their journal, Nitte Management Review. Reimagining and Refashioning Integral Management
The Mother came to India to meet Sri Aurobindo in 1914, and today is her birth anniversary. All those, who have ignored me all these years, haven't grown intellectually. The loss is theirs, not mine. Savitri Era Religion and Savitri Era Party are the only solution for the future.
I have the advantage of reading the works of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo along with some Western philosophy. Further, I have witnessed different phases of Indian politics during the last seventy years. Without such a varied orientation, thinking ability is bound to be handicapped.
I have been reading The Mother & Sri Aurobindo since the age of eight. So there was no requirement for me to read other gurus. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are absolutely unprecedented and unique. They are the one Supreme Divine. But for academic purposes, one can make comparisons.
I can request @roshendalal to guide you in this respect since she is an authority on both the thinkers.
Sri Aurobindo was born in Kolkata but West Bengal is yet to appreciate him fully. Still it's possible that people are drawn to The Mother first so that Sri Aurobindo is recognised. This is overdue and our prayers on her birthday to do the needful! Let West Bengal lead once again.
True. I think, Karmayogi's role has been phenomenal. @KarmayogiQuotes
Very few people are aware about the life of Sri Aurobindo during the years 1914 to 1920. He was writing 6 to 7 books simultaneously for publication in the Arya monthly magazine. There was no Ashram then and his pupils were a few. Historians should be interested about this period.
After shifting to Delhi in 1988, one of my first tasks was to memorise various roads radiating from the ubiquitous roundabouts from a map since taking a wrong direction means you reach elsewhere. In a similar spirit, I have been trying to show the right direction here since 2005.
After buying a flat in Indirapuram in 1998, I shifted to Ghaziabad.
Hitch your wagon to the mystic vibe of Savitri. Worshipping The Mother & Sri Aurobindo as the one Supreme Divine entails aligning with the evolutionary intention of the descent of the Supramental consciousness leading to the Vedic objective of physical Immortality and harmony.
Gandhi is as essential for understanding the past, as Sri Aurobindo is for formulating the future. I had formed Savitri Era Party in 2007 with the strong conviction that Hindutva would collapse under its own contradictions and hypocrisy. Present turmoil over UGC is the beginning!
Just read in the news that Mohan Bhagwat says, RSS is not meant for Hindutva politics. This seems to be a good sign. Real social challenges should be the focus. That would form the root for organic politics for our young democracy, instead of an imaginary, predetermined template.
I'm yet to find any intellectual in India who I can really admire and be guided by. I will be happy if someone tells me of such a person. Nobody has read Sri Aurobindo and hence I consider all as uneducated. Having invested my life in Sri Aurobindo I have earned this distinction.
True, but I find that many followers of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo need appropriate orientation and guidance. That's why I had started Savitri Era Learning Forum (SELF) in 2005. Intellectual growth takes years.
Well put. Why are you underground? You can do a lot!
Savitri Era Party doesn't believe in any imaginary, glorious past of India since different kingdoms were perpetually at war with each other. It doesn't promote Sanskrit learning in school as it is too taxing without much reward. Reading Sri Aurobindo's translations is sufficient.
People are suffering from defective ontology. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo gave a new evolutionary ontology more than a century ago. Imbibing it is the responsibility of each person. Savitri Era Religion and Savitri Era Party are trying to disseminate this new knowledge and praxis.
Anyone can search my profile and find how I kept on alerting about Modi on different occasions. I had started Savitri Era Party in 2007, the Centenary year of Sri Aurobindo's lead in the Surat split of Congress. Thus ideology is vital in politics and popularity can come in a day.
Looks like the algorithm blockade has eased a bit, and my posts are reaching people. However, I request all to discuss the perspectives and possibilities, I present, vis-à-vis other alternatives, in their timelines, so that the theoretical aspects can be examined more rigorously.
The silence, connivance, and complicity of educated people have brought us to such a pass. Following The Mother & Sri Aurobindo is the only solution for remedying the situation. Savitri Era Party has been spreading this emancipatory message despite resistance by dominant circles.
