16 October, 7.30pm IST - A Webinar by The Gnostic Centre, under the series ALL LIFE IS YOGA. The World is in crises – one catastrophe after another – the Pandemic, the Wildfires, downward spiralling Economy, worldwide incidents of oppression, aggression, violence and terror. How do we respond as individuals and as a society? This conversation amongst people engaged in socio-economic-personal change, aims to bring forth insights into the forces behind such events and how we may respond to them from a deeper perspective. The 60-minute dialogue will be followed by a 15-minute Q&A session. In conversation: Arndt Soret, Dr. Kent Davis-Packard, Gautam Chikermane, Pravir Malik; Moderated by Devdip Ganguli

Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
Symbolic interpretation of the Veda is the greatest intellectual contribution of Sri Aurobindo which rescued it from the snare of inane rituals by being sync with evolution and science. Universalisation of this ancient utterances is India's highest achievement in the modern world
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
Texts have been promoted over centuries but nothing contains self-evident truth. No means to verify and no need to repose faith on such propositions. This critical approach can save from superstitions but may lead to Marxist restrictions. Sri Aurobindo helps to overcome barrier.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
Othering, invoking Sri Aurobindo for taking up arms, and assuming that you will surely win are dangerous concoctions. God save from such intellectuals. Why all modalities of Democracy are forgotten and deploying summary methods to secure instant justice is recommended is a riddle

Those in power might have given it a push but ideologically it had no pull. Marxists took advantage of that vacuum and made attractive to the young. Sri Aurobindo was kept out of the picture. Besides, Vishishtadvaita never conceded defeat and is more widespread and influential.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
There were hundreds of kingdoms and different faiths grew through royal patronage. To imagine that some ideology had a dominant influence across villages and languages is not credible. These are academic speculations and attempt at neat divisions. Details are varied and complex.

What Sri Aurobindo wrote at one point can't be taken as his final outlook. Going beyond the text is the challenge. Supramental consciousness & Mind of light were his concerns toward the end of his life. Grappling with the future therefore is more important than past formulations.
