In a tremulous rapture of the heart's insight
And the spontaneous bliss that beauty gives,
The lovely kingdoms of the deathless Rose.
Above the spirit cased in mortal sense
Are superconscious realms of heavenly peace,
#Savitri #SriAurobindo
"The genius of titanic silences
Steeping her soul in its wide loneliness
Had shown to her her self’s bare reality..
Its solitude greatened her human hours
With a background of the eternal and unique.."

Animals have a very innate understanding of physics that humans don't.
John Gray is one the best political philosophers of our time. Adherents of Pax Americana would do well to read this.
“We are witnessing the definitive end of the post-Cold War global order, and the beginning of the end was the invasion of Iraq.”
In other words do what China did in the last decade. Go after the billionaires and their fat corporations and “re-educate” them.
I know it’s wishful thinking because people in the west would rather do seppuku than go after their rich…but nothing else will really work.
The people have had enough.
One’s who are saying that Parisians doth protest too much are missing the point that everywhere people are fed up of the system that is transferring power and wealth from the people to the rich continuously.
Don’t miss the forest for the trees.
#NarendraModi 's speech at #IndiaTodayConclave23 is a solid example of excellence in political communication: statesmanly posture & amazing checklist of details with the right mix of administrative and electoral aspects and subtle humour. Opposition should be deeply worried.
Watching #CJI on conclave. Great conversation. He is intelligent and articulate. But, a genuine doubt - should working judges come on media? No trolling please. Only serious response
also recommend a fantastic new article out on Auroville by "In the Shadow of the City Yet to Come: Auroville, Developmentalism and the Social Effects of Cityness"

Since December 2021 they have been battling hard with authorities. If Auroville can’t pull off such a vision, then we really need to reconsider if these ideas hold any merit.
Here is a detailed timeline of their struggle to keep the dream alive.
Mar 11, 2023
This morning around 7 am a hired masked mob equipped with chainsaws arrived on site in Darkali to cut the trees. These individuals refused to say who they were working for and it seems confirmed they were not working for the Central Public Works Department (CPWD) nor officially employed by the illegitimate ‘Auroville Town Development Council’ (‘ATDC’).
It seems confirmed that this mob has been hired from a nearby village through an Auroville resident closely supporting Secretary of the Auroville Foundation Jayanti Ravi. Some members of this hired mob were reportedly drunk, while they were manipulating chainsaws and dangerous machinery. Many were innocent teenagers.
Mature and rare and valuable species of trees have been cut.
The illegitimate ‘ATDC’ and other supporters of the Auroville Foundation Secretariat who were present also refused to disclose any work orders, any contract, or subcontracts. These are mandatory documents that are normally made public, as per the standard procedure.

People are either for this govt or against it; not many are willing to judge things without a strong bias. But the current environment is complex and deserves to be examined beyond this binary approach. Democracy has atrophied in many States and parties have become dysfunctional.
Savitri Era Party has been in existence since 2007 but not many have heard of it save some stalwarts on Twitter. Devoted to the vision of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo, it provides an alternative ideology and methodology. It differs from many of their followers and devotees, too.

Obviously, not to the liking of many, but Savitri Era Party, which I head, has this considered and consistent stand that the Parliament of India should dissolve itself and the Central Govt in favour of a loose federal set up consisting of Sovereign States formed on language basis.

Sri Aurobindo, in his #FiveDreams speech of August 14, 1947, has spoken of a #WorldUnion. What looks improbable today can be a reality tomorrow. The example of the erstwhile USSR giving rise to multiple new nations is very much a fact. Same thing can happen to India, US, or China.
