Aurobindo Ghosh was an unparalleled genius and visionary. Read how top ranking British intelligence officers assessed his ingenuity. What Aurobindo Ghosh initiated, Subhas Chandra Bose finished. The Indian Freedom Movement  https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU

It took the genius of Aurobindo Ghosh to coalesce ideas that existed in Hindu ethos into devastating tools of mass movements- Swaraj & Swadeshi. Both were coalesced in much maligned Calcutta in the first decade of the twentieth century. Read:  https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU

The Life Divine by Sri Aurobindo had its completion last month in 1919 and nothing more profound or epochal has been published during the last one hundred years. Educated Indians must realise its significance as the most potent soft power and spread awareness of it in all spheres

In his enthusiasm as a scholar, Ashis Nandy has done immense damage to Sri Aurobindo. A whole generation got prejudiced; ignored Sri Aurobindo. Nandy has never shown that he has actually read some important works of #SriAurobindo but he can make some amends for the injustice done

On 20 October #Nivedita arrived in Baroda. Sri #Aurobindo received her at the station. This was their first meeting. The two got along very well, but Nivedita’s meeting with the Gaekwar was a failure. https://t.co/s5kx4SrM5t

In Dec.1902, Congress conducted its 1st session in Ahmedabad (18th overall), on the financial backing of the ongoing Industrial exhibition (where Gaekwad read #SriAurobindo's speech)..

It was here that the two 'extremists' met for the first time: https://t.co/VU1MtcgETR

"I’ve seen how. It won’t be done through a battle: the different parts of Pakistan will demand separation. There are five of them. And by separating, they’ll join India – to form a sort of confederation. That’s how it will be done."

That #Mother said - Pakistan is a falsehood. It must go. Sri Aurobindo too said.

The alienation of Kashmiri Sunni Muslims cannot be cured in any way - a majority seems to want Azadi or merger with Pak, at least a plurality does. The rest of India is under no obligation to try to convince them otherwise. Resettle more people in J&K and make KMs less relevant.

Modi is as much a product of the rotten secular democratic state as Maino. Changes within such a deeply foul system will be incremental only

Modi IMO is akin to Gorbachev. And following Modi Hindus will have their Yelstins and other bozos before they get their Putin

Indira Gandhi divided Pakistan.

Modi can never do anything even close to it.

Primacy of languages should be recognised and States of India must get Sovereignty by abolishing the Central Govt. #SriAurobindo spoke of #WorldUnion and a Confederation of South Asian States will be catalyst. Modi can be an instrument of Evolutionary forces to turn a Gorbachev.

It's for the local people to defend themselves by forging suitable alliances. Such bulwark will grow organically. Besides, there is no need to paint a dismal image of China; it's also bound by many international restrictions and commitments. Sri Aurobindo has foreseen Federation.

I confess that my articulations are more philosophical than conforming to geopolitical apprehensions. But I stick to it based on my intense attraction for Odia and Sri Aurobindo's forecasts. Creation of Bangladesh and disintegration of USSR remain examples of China's irrelevance.

At this rate, Modi may turn out to be a Gorbachev when India as a British legacy becomes history and the States legitimately become free Republics. #SCJudgesMutiny can have a cascading effect triggering a relook at worn out principles and shibboleths. Evolutionary forces at work!

There's a reason why left liberals and sleazy Bollywoodiyas spout mindless idealism. The reason is that deep down they are filthy degenerates. Without an iota of morality in their lives, they believe this shroud of idealism will hide their dirty sins. It doesn't.

Lesson is - an icon represents more what you make it represent than what  the human actually did. https://t.co/s99UDVhwTh

Conceptually, the realization one has, one tends to project, and reads several insights just the way Yogananda Aurobindo etc saw Christ and Mohammed as yogis etc. Not necessarily matching with what those cults/religions see in those icons and thus worth discarding.

Evolutionary anthropologist Joseph Henrich of Harvard University has proposed that religious commitment emerges from costly rituals like fasting, donation, celibacy and martyrdom. When people see other members of their own community, especially prestigious ones, make these sacrifices, they’re more likely to accept the underlying beliefs. This stems from our inherent tendency to learn by imitation and follow tradition, even when the reasons are unknown.

This book, SRI AUROBINDO IN BARODA is a good one to understand the context of the epochal collaboration between Sri Aurobindo and Tilak; in fact Lal-Bal-Pal, which is crucial to later history, or even, what is unfolding today. https://t.co/8jXpSpsQzM @Gopanarya @SavitriEraParty

If I may add, Arya, this is a topic where grave misinformation, nay even wild & crude theories have been circulated by even reputed scholars. Hence there is an urgent need to set the record straight. A few months back, I lamented to Sri @blog_supplement how, in the 1930s, even a ...

In short, it seems that even some of the earlier generation of scholars (on whom we ideally we shud have had much more trust) have fared miserably in providing a satisfactory explanation to the Q raised above. So, anything u both write on the subject will certainly offer insights

Engaging with current affairs on Twitter is like preparing for competitive exams. To see it as moulding of public opinion or a sign of participative Democracy is farfetched. The reason is, reason is at a discount and spirit of propaganda in adolescent's zeal finds full expression

India is a Democracy comprising of people belonging to divergent religions like Hindus and Muslims. Any section claiming superiority or special considerations on religious grounds is anomalous. Those highlighting religious identity for political mobilisation are on the wrong side

https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1097884937380720640?s=19

Function of religion is "to establish a communication with what is invisible" and all outward paraphernalia are merely an aid. Those who seek to reverse this principle to gather votes won't reap dividends for ever but would do irreparable damage to both Democracy and the religion
