Start off your savitri era tour

Assorted tweets:

Devotees and admirers of Sri Aurobindo: Deport Peter Heehs and his supporters from India - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/jMmRngiQGd via @ChangeOrg_India

when time permits will try to share the fun on how political activists and "humanities" academics stretch and shrink "labels" as per opportunity, agenda and degree of shamelessness/hypocrisy they r comfortable with: but for a start use of "fascist/Nazi" will be good to explore!🤣

There is an attempt to differentiate Sangham and Bhakthi/post-Bhakthi Tamizh societies - appreciating the former as secular and the latter as 'Brahminical' and blaming it for all social problems today. A thorough study of the truth. https://t.co/FbdxoWvLCh via @swarajyamag

Excellent post in tamizh by @sundarrajachola on the state of dharma in TN. Tamizh Hindus need to read this. https://t.co/kaxHXijRa4

46) Hymns 297 - 302 (Verses 3,053 - 3,149): Description of Rig-Veda, Mandala 04, Sukta 001 to 006 (including Vamadeva's hymns to Agni); with #SriAurobindo's words on how the psychological significance of Agni is missed out in the purely ritual interpretations of the Veda https://t.co/WOsCjx2KfF

What do u get when u combine the love of a Mother, a True Guru & the Supreme Divine, all in one human form?
Absolute Bliss. #Mother https://t.co/gOWI4D7G5x

Eventually u end up listening, but not my direct suggestions, rather only after the same are duly attested and verified by others anyway Didi, start off Ur savitri era tour, don't try to understand with intellect, just immerse in the bliss of the word flow, it's like a mantra

South Indian brahmins are evidently better rooted in the traditional scriptures and rituals whereas Hindi heartland hoi polloi are at peace with Hanuman chalisa. Yet, the former struggle so much to display a 'more loyal than the king' style when it comes to the Hindutva ideology.

Message has gone out that Naveen Patnaik is invincible and yet the future is uncertain, or rather pregnant with possibilities. Both Congress and BJP are struggling to erect a safe ideological scaffolding. Putting Sri Aurobindo on pedestal is the right recipe for reaping dividends

They are all past paradigms; Sri Aurobindo represents the future. Following him can enable Indians to rise above all forms factionalism, sectarianism, and parochialism. He has analysed all these 100 years back in the ARYA magazine. His #FiveDreams and #WorldUnion are real agenda.

Both modernity and postmodernism are essential in our task of consigning all past religions and rituals to museums. Texts of course will circulate but sans reference will lose relevance and adherence. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo will rule on merit. It's Evolutionary inevitability.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1148623975062237184?s=19

Religions are accumulated culture marketed for commercial purposes with political patronage. They are also a means, says Sri Aurobindo, for elevating human consciousness, at times. This transcendental aspect needs to be a priority by relegating mythology and rituals to oblivion.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1148651235156942848?s=19

If one reads Sri Aurobindo, then s/he can fathom the significance of Evolution. Why the Westerners came to India? Why Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo, Tagore, Gandhi, Nehru, Ambedkar, and others went overseas? Recognising inevitability of #WorldUnion and redundancy of Hindutva needed.

Feel Philosophy: English of Sri Aurobindo seems like some secret tantric language https://t.co/GMJ4ced7lS @NathTusar, Director, Savitri Era Learning Forum (SELF), Indirapuram, Ghaziabad (U.P.). #FiveDreams #WorldUnion
Savitri Era of those who adore,
Om Sri Aurobindo & The Mother.
