[In our psychological interpretation of the Veda we are met at every turn by the ancient conception of the Truth as the path to the Bliss.] Sri Aurobindo http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/15/dawn-and-the-truth
Three Rishis of Modern India:
V. P. Singh https://t.co/1fOGKADlvd
V.P. Singh has been a victim of a vicious campaign against him by the upper caste people and political detractors. His personal integrity aside, his pushing OBC reservations has left a lasting impact altering India's political scenario. Besides, he is also seen as first architect of Economic Reforms
Popularising Vedic symbolism and Yogic spirituality as conceived by Sri Aurobindo is a thousand times more valuable than building any temple. If only those heading गोरक्ष पीठ could understand the real meaning as interpreted by Sri Aurobindo: not, cow protection but nurturing light. @SavitriEraParty
For those feeling confused by my TL potpourri, let me reiterate that Savitri Era Party is against AAP, BJP, Congress, and the Left parties. As I plough a lonely furrow, the soundness and validity of the political ideology I put forth is becoming more and more evident. http://savitriera.blogspot.in
Misgivings on Science are to dispelled by more of Science and not falling back upon, Mythology, Astrology, Rituals, or Ayurveda. Those deriding Liberalism and Secularism are enemies of Modernity and Plurality. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo provide us futuristic paradigms. https://selforum.blogspot.in
All established parties have been discredited and intellectuals have exposed their bankruptcy of ideas. Savitri Era Party is the alternative. Current policies: 1) No Reservations, 2) Free Markets, 3) Sovereignty to States, & 4) No bowing to Mythology and Rituals. https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/
Statecraft yielding to Mythology or Faith would be a regressive development when Development, Delivery, and Governance are pressing issues. Democracy, Development, and Governance are aspirational concepts without any firm mechanism for delivery. Evolution is the ultimate arbiter.
Market dynamics should decide lifestyle choices, deviance or innovation. Religious and political dispensations need to stay away from scene. Market is free space where individual psychology gets a chance to have a rollercoaster ride. These drive (not control) the Market. http://marketime.blogspot.in
@Vidyut @genderlogindia @SuzaneNayak Human behaviour is inextricably linked with interplay of money, power, and sex. Futile to find solution. Point is, each person behaves differently in different situations and so, seeing patterns is arbitrary. http://nmrjournal.in/index.php/nmr/article/view/95...
Mirra Alfassa, The Mother, arrived in Puducherry, then Pondicherry, on March 29, 1914 and met Sri Aurobindo; an epochal event for mankind. https://youtu.be/idfj_pJcu6Y
[ARYA Vol.3. No 8—March 1917: Integral Knowledge, Oneness, Sankhya & Yoga, PSD VIII, 2nd Hymn to Mitra-Varuna, IHU & Heraclitus (4)]
Reservations perpetuate inequality and hierarchy. Abolishing all types of reservation would bring justice to Dalits and end their alienation. Valorising Religion, Rituals, and Mythology blunts vigour for Modernity. Sri Aurobindo recommends Spirituality, instead. https://t.co/sJnNQMgY9D
India is too large for an individual aspiring for top Constitutional positions which means negation of Democracy and conspiracy-led politics. There is no reason why the Central Govt. should exist at all. The States must be endowed with full autonomy for decentralised decision making.
Isha is the only Upanishad that is part of the Veda and Sri Aurobindo has written on it extensively signifying the zenith of Indian Wisdom. Dalit resistance to the Veda is misplaced since Sri Aurobindo encompasses it within his Ontological formulations by displacing from Rituals.
Politics is about individuals. The day they differentiate what Sri Aurobindo is exhorting vis-à-vis current cesspool, Indians can progress. Individuals overcome their weaknesses by following an ideology under some institution. Wrong ideology and interpretation can ruin a person.
There is nothing to be particularly happy or proud about in the humdrum of a Democracy. The fact that some are smacks of superiority and bigotry. @madhukishwar @yogi_adityanath Democracy doesn't demand superhuman abilities or Messiah. CM just needs to be the First among equals. Enough!
Although Nature has created multiple languages with optimum population strength of a nation they have been hostages of Indian Constitution
Beauty of Democracy is that it harbours diverse types of opinions and sentiments by citizens. Evolution hates repetition and is always in the mode of exploration for paradigm shifts. Stability and status quo are valued many a time, but the Time-Spirit brings out surprises from Womb of possibilities.
Ideology is not something fixed or static nor remains imprisoned in clichéd niches. History is witness to waves of thought and tides of fortunes with unfailing regularity. Evolution also sparingly adopts crooked means to achieve its goal. Democracy is perhaps helpless before such harsh vicissitudes.
Those who romanticise environment and village living fail to notice their own hypocrisy. Similarly, indigenous knowledge systems of Tribals is a hoax. Being prisoners of local culture, vast sections of Indians have not tasted the fruits of Modernity, yet. Hindutva will further put the clock back.
Jealousy and false pride is so rampant in India that people are reluctant to follow (which is subscribing and not following, in actuality) or share by RT. A tweet should be judged on its own right and technology allows ready dissemination by RT. But despite merit in content, the author is boycotted.
@dhume Hope, you are saying it in earnest. Btw, your support for Modi has misguided thousands of people and that's perhaps the original sin. @dhume I respect your scholarship and judgement but disagree with perception on Modi. Country needs your critical views once in a blue moon. twitter.com/dhume/
[Will we recognise as Aurobindo did, that Islam nourished India and was nourished by it? Or will the choice of indigenous be determined by Golwalkar who said non-Hindu peoples must “stay in the country wholly subordinated to Hindu nation”?] http://indianexpress.com/yes-bring-on-bharatiyata-...
[Disguised as liberalism, but also not to return to Sarvarkarism either. What we need is not to go back but forward to something new, what Sri Aurobindo called “new creation” in Foundations of Indian Culture] http://www.dnaindia.com/analysis/column-up-polls-a...
Suspect all those who portray Savarkar and Golwalkar as fulcrum of Indian Civilisation instead of Dayananda and Sri Aurobindo's Vedic wisdom. Never forget that Modi and Kejriwal have come to power fuelled by ample deceit and chicanery. Never forgive the willy machinations of Ramdev. #SriAurobindo
Both Kejriwal and Modi shattered the trust of the nation. Time to switch over to the Vedic Evolutionary dialectic envisaged by Sri Aurobindo. Congress and Marxist strategy is to oppose without proposing any alternative to the Hindutva narrative. Savitri Era Party holds out Sri Aurobindo as an option
Selling Jeera or Haldi powder in the name of Yoga and Ayurveda turns out to be the most potent con act in the history of Indian civilisation. Those holding high Constitutional posts must refrain from endorsing Mythology, Astrology, Rituals & other unverifiable domains like Ayurveda.
Ensuring 1) Rule-of-law, 2) Level-playing-field, and 3) Fair-play are cardinal principles of good Governance. Any departure from these ideals leads to morass. Competition, Quality, and Innovation are sine qua non of Development. Govt leaning towards Yoga, Ayurveda, and Indigenous goods is erroneous.
Sri Aurobindo passed away in 1950, but his followers are active worldwide. [Sri Aurobindo was criticized as day-dreamer but his social-political thought helps us to be spiritually elevated.] Sri Aurobindo figures prominently in French Presidential election and #Frexit debate. https://t.co/J6NBLcBtmo
People of India must claim their own languages, their mother-tongues and demand Sovereignty for respective States and specified Regions. Indian subcontinent has never been under a single administration. A Federation of about a hundred nations will be the ideal Akhand Bharat http://sepact.blogspot.in
Dayananda and Sri Aurobindo have infused unprecedented dynamism into Vedic wisdom and its Evolutionary unfolding is inevitable. Here and now.
1) Say yes to Free Market,
2) Oppose Mythology and Reservations,
3) Demand Sovereignty to the States; &
4) Follow The Mother & Sri Aurobindo.
Odia people must come out from being a slave of Naveen Patnaik; they shouldn't allow any more leeway to the slaves of two Gujaratis either. Odisha's trade and cultural ties with ASEAN nations has more potentials than permitting two Gujaratis plundering it. https://t.co/UGzIaBC1wl
Helps to remember that what is current is not a reliable guide of what is cooking. Emergence and Evolution pursue their invisible function. The past is not limited by recorded History nor the present is confined to what is reported on TV. Vedic Revolutions surge forth underneath.
Though newsworthy, spectacles and carnivals are not the only empirical evidences of progress. The wretched and the meek can match the cool and the geek. Echo-chamber effect of Twitter or Gab is too tempting but robs life of any meaning. [A ship is safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for.]
There won't be unanimity upon any one South Indian language. Hence, Odia is the best option having wide resemblances with the North and the South, both. Odia being the only North Indian classical language, apart from Sanskrit, should be the common language all over India. https://t.co/FoH4AyuI2l
Democracy seems to be wilted in India since all the attention is on the game itself without any attempts at refining the rules of the game. Socialism and Co-operatives stymied the individual; Central Govt. crippled the States. Breaking news was dumbing down; PM pushes Art of silence!
India doesn't belong to the Freedom fighters or the Founding fathers of the Constitution. They are dead and gone; all depends on the present generation. India doesn't belong to the Govt, not even to the Parliament. People must take responsibility and voice opinion regarding the future of the nation.
A recent book, "Hegel's India" brings into focus his tryst with Indian philosophy giving rise to the speculation that many of his innovative notions were inspired by (or, borrowed from) it. This, of course, is a fertile area of study. A review https://blog.oup.com/2017/01/german-indology-philo...
Most Govt servants, women, or evening Meditation participants are allergic to political "use" of Sri Aurobindo. Savitri Era Party defies proprietorial aim. Surely Meditation shouldn't get disturbed by worries of political tussle but whom to vote is an important aspect of life requiring vigilance.
Democracy is not merely about getting elected or capturing power. Rejuvenating Democracy by refining & nurturing values is its raison d'être. Just like a hospital is an adjunct to a Medical college for research, polls and power are merely fields of practice for improving Democracy.
Remember your age and don't take responsibility for dubious texts and customs of thousands years back that have come through some tradition. Neither modern nor ancient is valuable for its own sake; what matters is pursuing own self-interest and common-sense. Mythology misleads.
Political campaigning has become so complex and overpowering that it's beyond lay persons to cut through the clutter. So, reliable guide needed. Democracy enjoins upon all right thinking persons to extend support to feeble voices which fight the hegemony and tyranny of majoritarianism.
BJP loves Mythology and obscurantism and is uncomfortable with Democracy and plurality, Modernity and liberalism, Intellectuality and Critical reason. Silence seeks to sweep difference under the carpet and enforce uniformity. This Kafkaesque trait of RSS and BJP leads to Fascist propensity.
All that nation-building and national-integration rhetoric that we practiced for school debate in the sixties stand falsified after 50 years. Things seemed so straightforward as if milk & honey will flow in a decade or two. But all that stand shattered today. @SavitriEraParty https://t.co/bM3F9R9KBI
Religions are defective; don't gel with modern living. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo recommended designing your own religion from Yoga toolkit. Old Religions & old political Parties are out of date. Following The Mother & Sri Aurobindo is the only assured path to usher in Savitri Era. @SavitriEraParty
Domain knowledge is crucial for innovation and progress. Yet, a lay person's chance of intuitively accessing higher truth can't be ruled out. Process is considered indispensable for success in both material and spiritual fields. For The Mother & Sri Aurobindo, descent can override.
Latest forays in Physics and Neuropsychology point to indeterminability bordering on Nihilism but Sri Aurobindo focuses on the Supramental source. Western philosophy's commitment to immanence but subtle roots in Christian theology are problem areas. Sri Aurobindo solves in The Life Divine.
Social or professional hierarchy is perceived as a harsh reality whereas it's an Evolutionary tool for accomplishing scripted eventualities. Science and technology has done wonders to human perception and, therefore, there is no reason why one would imagine no further enlargement.
India is too large an entity to be reasonably grasped by the puny brain of any citizen. States as sovereign nations can lessen this burden. Everyone loves status qou and hence any talk of of dividing India into smaller nations is met with a stunned look. Merits of it is not heard.
The Constitution of India adores Democracy; the nation is secondary. The will of the people - free and fair - takes precedence over boundary. Comparisons are odious but we have seen people's will winning when USSR disintegrated or Bangladesh was created. India can opt for the same fate on its own.
Nehruvian policies have stood the test of time as almost all PMs after him have tried to follow. Distorted History books are the only blot. Glow of Nehru as a symbol of liberal ethos is increasing everyday as the present regime is mounting attack on social harmony in various ways.
Thanks to Nehru India becoming a Hindu Rashtra was prevented in 1947. After 70 years it's difficult to elicit such an assurance from leaders. RSS demands obedience whereas a Democracy fosters freedom. RSS valorises tradition but Modernity encourages innovation. The choice is yours.
If political parties become as powerful as warring kingdoms run by Dynasties in the past, then Democracy loses its meaning; charisma rules. Common folks can be pardoned for uninformed loyalties but top professionals mortgaging their intelligence and ethics is backstabbing Democracy.
Hindutva insistence of externalities and exhibitionism is the worst among most forms of distortion that Hinduism has weathered over the ages. Earlier, BJP was complaining about Muslim 'appeasement.' That seemed so harmless in comparison to their present posture of driving them out.

All crimes and corruption can be eradicated within a week if the Central Govt wants but it's the mother of all wrongdoings and shields mafia
Central Govt is an anomaly due to which Democracy is dysfunctional now. States must get Sovereignty and UN membership for their Development.
Both Modi & Kejriwal came to power through deception. But empty allegations against Kejriwal has raised his credibility and sympathy for him
