A seventeen year old feels s/he knows everything. But the urge for discovering one's vistas of ignorance must go on till the age of seventy.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty24 Mar
Hunger for popularity or mass appeal shouldn't be the whole criterion. Sri Aurobindo is a cerebral celebration unlike culinary or of colours
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty24 Mar
It's not material who uttered the word Involution first, but who brought it to life and embodied it throughout his life. It's Sri Aurobindo.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty24 Mar
Sri Aurobindo is insistent upon integration but is equally emphatic on distinctions. So, being alive to the demands of evolution is the key.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty24 Mar
A wise enemy is better than a foolish friend and hence being wary of a political adversary involves keeping channels of communication open.

Strange how @gchikermane has not initiated any media campaign yet for securing the stay of his friend Peter Heehs in Sri Aurobindo Ashram.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty21 Mar
Peter Heehs' one year visa extension expires on April 15 and like last year creating media attention through stage managed attack is a ploy.

@ShivaChimp Sri Aurobindo Ashram, like Hotel Taj, was an easy target to attract attention. To that extent, their strategy has worked well.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty21 Mar
@RajeevSrinivasa A minor correction. Sri Aurobindo Ashram is itself a semitic transmutation involving intertwining of Judeo-Vedic religions.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty21 Mar
@PondyTweets If you admit it to be tragic, then it eminently deserves an epic battle, failures notwithstanding. Thanks for the good wishes.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty21 Mar
@ShivaChimp If Peter Heehs thinks we will forget his crime, no, never. He is desecrating the Sri Aurobindo Ashram from within every moment.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty21 Mar
@sunandavashisht So what is more damaging? Breaking a few bricks and flower pots or mauling in print The Mother & Sri Aurobindo's reputation

@PondyTweets I don't think you have shared the results of any opinion poll. How are you so sure?

The Manoj Das Gupta-Peter Heehs nexus has robbed the Sri Aurobindo Ashram of exemplary reputation and goodwill built over several decades.
  1. Savitri Era Party @SavitriEraParty21 Mar
Those outraged over the vandalism at Sri Aurobindo Ashram must also question why it is sheltering Peter Heehs who has denigrated the Master.

@AbhiUwach I pointed out the Bengali connection as Nandhivarman has long been exposing the misdeeds of Manoj Das Gupta over the Internet.

@AbhiUwach Because the Managing Trustee of Sri Aurobindo Ashram is a Bengali who is embroiled in land scams and financial irregularities.
