From India that is Bharat to The Life Divine is a long way ahead

Sri Aurobindo, the great revolutionary yogi, poet and philosopher continues to be an eternal inspiration for humanity through his vision for world unity, peace and spiritual upliftment. I deem it an honour to visit the Sri Aurobindo Ashram and see on a first-hand basis the vibrant community life here. It was indeed a very enriching experience to visit this world famous spiritual centre. The vitality and dynamic character of the community at the Ashram mirror the underlying mission of Sri Aurobindo's spiritual legacy.

Brevity can mislead. Integral yoga may not ask for change of religion but it doesn't bar religious conversion as available under the Constitution. However, there shouldn't be any coercion or unreasonable allurement. Officially unrecognised religions too have their own attraction.
Writing can't but wresting power can. Savitri Era Party seeks to provide an alternative under Sri Aurobindo's inspiration.
Hindutva agents trying to spread seeds of discord and confusion among the devotees of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo is mischievous. There should be constant vigilance against flamboyance of such characters and their overt and covert promoters. Savitri Erans will have to win this war
Please avoid such clownish behaviour in the public domain. Earning a doctorate has a specific procedure. Honorary ones are of course awarded.
That's fine. Knowledge ought to be respected if not the person. But I expect that you don't talk about SAVITRI & Ramcharitmanas in the same breath. Also don't equate Sri Aurobindo with his famous contemporaries like Vivekananda. There's need to focus on #SriAurobindo exclusively.
Culture amounts to sympathetic appreciation, right evaluation, and avoiding disproportion. Some handles focus on interested themes as a result of which a balanced view of things fails to emerge. This lopsidedness leads to distorted history and unintended selective amnesia. Beware

Replying to @Gangra11Prakash
surprising that some ‘I know more than everyone‘ type devotees of d Mother claim that we shouldn’t believe in our Gods once we’re on d path of #SriAurobindo ! It was a different matter that Lord Ganesh too couldn’t fulfill all d demands of TM !!
Replying to @NathTusar and @Auro_Mere
Respected Sir, I don’t want to argue with u as u know ‘More than anyone‘ about #SriAurobindo on d earth !

Radhakrishnan had another known case of piracy. In his lecture published in Hindu in July 1936,he had stolen not only Sri Aurobindo's ideas but had actually lifted several sentences en masse. Prof. Mahendranath Sircar & others wanted to take action. But SA dissuaded them. SA's view:

This essay by Siddhant Bajpai explores the context of Sri Aurobindo's Uttarpara speech and also underlines how the values and principles elaborated in it by Sri Aurobindo remain immortal. #Aurobindo #UttarparaSpeech @IndicaOrg

Review: #IndiaThatIsBharat J Sai Deepak argues while the colonisation of the Indian landscape may have been reversed, the minds continue to be possessed @manik1sharma writes @BloomsburyIndia @jsaideepak 

Sai Deepak and Vikram Sampath are academically taking the fight to the enemy camp. Both debate calmly with the other side and make them look like a bunch of ill informed idiots that can't back up their decades old manufactured lies.
