What yoga can teach us
When Darwin discovered the process of evolution, a series of new philosophies came to be developed. But none of these philosophies has the thoroughness of the evolutionary philosophy of Indian sages that bridges the gulfs between matter and life, and life and mind, and of Sri Aurobindo’s philosophy of evolution from mind to supermind. In fact, he reverses the entire process of evolution and points out that the real evolutionary force is not material but supramental in character, and that matter itself is nothing but a mode of the supermind. He thus bridges, like the Vedic rishis, the three great oceans of existence — the inconscient, conscient, and superconscient. This is extremely refreshing, and one feels a kind of rejuvenation of thought and life.
I can see clearly the interconnection between Sri Aurobindo’s vision of a world union of free nations, the vision of a spiritualised society, and the vision of integral humanism based on a holistic vision of universe. I feel that probably a new alternative of the present moulds of thought is now being built in the world.

One of the features of Bankim Da's novels, has been the very strong women characters in them. Be it Kapalakundala, Durgesh Nandini, Devi Chaudharani or Kalyani in Anandamath, he created some of the most memorable women characters in Indian literature.
India has great diversity in language and culture. This attempt, to impose one particular national language is going to stir the hornet’s nest among other linguistic groups. The unity of our people based on the rich diversity in language and culture will only be disrupted by this https://t.co/AgHLpK8lbG

Parties & govts have lost expertise in public management; too busy acquiring/enjoying power, too little ability to govern/improve things. Endless committees have become substitutes to sound Policy. Yashpal, TSR, Kasturirangan, Punchi, ARC, Malimath etc .. no change/improvement.

We are a third world country with educated fools . There’s no way we can advance in a major way. Democracy is not for a foolish country like ours.

Jai Sri Ram was the battle cry against invading armies and the mantra of India’s Independence Movement. Nehru rejected it, the Communists demonized it, now Mamata Banerjee in Bengal is making it into a crime, and the Rahul Congress is demeaning devotion to Ram as communal.

Pushing a narrative and telling the right thing are two different things. Obviously, people are driven by material gains and no escape from such compulsions. Sri Aurobindo, however, provides diverse perspectives to sense current priorities and imperatives. https://t.co/yA7GHvJTdf

Are men even capable of seeing a woman beyond her physical beauty? Are women even capable of seeing men beyond superficialities like good English, good money and polished manners? We're genetically doomed to be shallow

Yes and yes. It happens aplenty.
Having said that, people indeed are largely predisposed to prefer what's neatly apparent than pursue the hidden, for it is effortfully taxing.

Progress is lovely : Aldous Huxley. The world in Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World is not focused on family, love, and success - but instead focused around industry, economy, and technologic growth and improvement. The citizens are not concerned with themselves as individuals; they
Have been conditioned to see the world as a collective and technologically oriented. Medical advancement & educational standardisation prevail. The novel is a dangerously accurate prophesy of technology’s capacity to dominate society, and how this domination is silently changing the goals, moralities, and values of our culture.
The democracy of individual growth and personal spirituality is eliminated. technology can both create distractions and communicate forms of propaganda, enabling small groups of people who are most powerful to control society and limit freedom.

Not a quandary for nationalists---It is true though that Huawei is like X Ray into our cyber security and data processing, but make deal if China is favourable on our disputes and on Pakistan issues-- which better than what US will offer in other dimensions.
