As long as democratic machinery is espousing it, reservations deserve respect

Tweets in original by Tusar Nath Mohapatra, Director, Savitri Era Learning Forum (SELF - since 2005)

Savitri Era

What´s the state of theory today? Humanism, no doubt, is the substratum but most concerns seem to be hijacked by the exigencies of technology apart from the political contingencies. Thus objectivity is missing and also perceiving how the unseen world is constantly shaping events.

Incremental development and percolation effect are a constant. Conceiving any overwhelming measures or conversely leaving things to an organic growth form a dilemma. Vision and coordination can set a momentum. Design can change the face of Indian landscape with focus on villages.

Crores of people live in the villages but this urban trend of applauding celebrities is a curious phenomenon. Caring for the underprivileged hasn't lost its relevance. A fraction of money and energy spent in luxury and fun can do wonders for the deprived sections of the society.

Castes can't be wished away like that; it's alive and kicking in countless villages. #SriAurobindo formulated the broad principles but to apply them in the present conditions may not be a sound strategy. So symmetry and uniformity are still distant dreams.

Please avoid disparaging remarks about other professions. We are in an interconnected world; just playing our part. Geography is uneven; society is so complex. So expecting symmetry and uniformity may not be appropriate. Further, a good and well paying profession is not enough.

Replying to @drdeepak81
I don´t disagree with you but as long as the democratic machinery is espousing it, reservation deserves respect. If some party in future is ready to abolish it, then it´s good. Till then, it´s not fair to find fault with this provision.

Technology aids development and it's unthinkable that there can be any halt. Further innovation can come from any corner of the world. An ordinary human being is just a spectator. But #SriAurobindo won't approve of such helplessness. Access to higher Consciousness can mould events.

I have been using Twitter since 2012 for expressing my views as SavitriEraParty and NathTusar. Besides, my blog at savitriera.blogspot.com is in operation since 2005. Savitri Era of those who adore, Om Sri Aurobindo and The Mother. Photo from Ashram at Talla Ramgarh, Uttarakhand

August 15, Sri Aurobindo´s birth anniversary Annual reminder of the agenda Evolutionary A journey towards a sublime human destiny Midst ignorance and suffering extraordinary Supramental Consciousness is very much in action What it needs is our unreserved collaboration.

Looking at history through the lens of Subhas can be as skewed as imagining everything in terms of Gandhi or Nehru. They have exhibited heroism or leadership but when it comes to visionary element, there´s no one who can match Sri Aurobindo. Revolution, yes but Evolution, urgent.

Excellent introduction by @AmanAlbelaa to the life and work of Sri Aurobindo, the greatest poet and philosopher of India, on the occasion of his 150th birth anniversary year celebrations from August 15. I speak on his current political relevance at 10:10. #FiveDreams #WorldUnion

@NathTusar interviewed by @aajtakradio for a podcast on Sri Aurobindo. At 10:10 min. A great conversation.

Two minutes to a fresh perspective Cc @pbmehta @_YogendraYadav @rahuldev2 @ASR_Metta @shantprakash @DhalGobardhan @MANOJNAYAK71 @prakascnayak @OdiaCulture @odiamelody

Many thanks for giving me this opportunity for saying a few words on the political relevance of Sri Aurobindo, when the country is standing on the crossroads. Content is almost flawless and the voice is powerful. Kuldip Mishra, Gopa Basu, and Jagjit Singh also feature in capsule.

Winning elections by hook or by crook has become the norm. But, Democracy demands restraint, eschewing misrepresentation, and fair play. So, society needs men and women of character and a line of thinking or ideology is also required. Sri Aurobindo provides them in ample measure.

RSS is trying hard to transform itself but somehow it can't shed the Jai Shriram slogan although Ram doesn't evoke equal reverence across the country. Any way, RSS moving towards a direction Sri Aurobindo would have liked is certainly heartening. Those facilitating deserve kudos.

Manmohan Singh was a puppet for ten years and Modi is a puppet for seven years now. A PM drawing direct support from the grassroots hasn't happened till now. Real involvement resides in the States which are actually separate nations. Central govt. is a conduit for manipulation.

Not autonomy but I'm campaigning for Sovereignty to the States. That may sound too futuristic but will materialise through Evolutionary pressure. As regards performance of Modi, it's pedestrian. All bureaucratic measures; where's the leader? He is a puppet; his hands are tight!

Democracy in India is in a very bad shape. It's the responsibility of we the citizens to set it right. Either the present election process has to be thoroughly changed or the States given Sovereignty. Otherwise, we are suffering from a sham Democracy and are deluding ourselves.

Savitri Era Chintadhara doesn´t tally with all that The Mother & Sri Aurobindo have said. When dealing with current issues we don´t have to stick to their utterances belonging to the last century. Citing them is anachronism and misrepresentation. Context and nuance are paramount.

Without bothering about the history too much; it can safely be said that the Constitution of India has become dysfunctional. Concentration of power in one hand has become a handmaiden of crony capitalism. Democracy needs to be reestablished by granting Sovereignty to the States.

Indian languages are languishing owing to onslaught of other languages and influx of outsiders. Awarding Sovereignty to the States will make local languages safe and sound. Rightsizing of nations will also spur entrepreneurship and innovation. So India must turn into a Federation. 

A language makes a nation as we see in Europe. There should be a new country called Bhojpur comprising of all Bhojpuri speaking areas. More cohesion and more competition.

The Constitution of India is a product of history. Its shelf-life is over. Let the people draft their own Constitutions in their own languages so that real grassroots Democracy is established. Local languages and sentiments must be given due respect through Sovereignty to the States.

Ambitious and panoramic but the West is portrayed as a monolith. The same exuberance is ascribed to our culture. Breaking open the prison of such grand narratives is important since the reality is diverse and complex. Sri Aurobindo too is accused of painting a stereotype of West.

Fine but my only apprehension is that if there´s some misrepresentation. Western thinkers suffer from Eurocentrism and we should avoid that trap. Akin concerns

I speak at 10:10 as to why Sri Aurobindo should be considered seriously as a contender for an alternative political route. My debut in the MSM with a bang!
[एक क्रांतिकारी जिनके जीवन दर्शन से अब्दुल कलाम प्रेरणा लेते थे: नामी गिरामी, Ep 109... via @aajtak https://t.co/yhLROWxGKk]

I don´t exactly agree with your perception of what Puducherry thinks or not. They have a certain mandate and they are trying to adhere to that. Expecting something more from them may not be right. It´s the academic community which should stand up to the challenge of Sri Aurobindo

Here I agree with you. In the academic scenario, Sri Aurobindo should be portrayed maximum as a mahayogi and a mystic poet. Since he has left behind a vast corpus of written words, he can't escape comparison or critical scrutiny. But informed studies should bury Nandy's mischief.

It's through debate and discussion that knowledge grows and misconceptions are uprooted. Spontaneity has it's own validity. That moment never returns. Beauty of Socratic dialogue is that. Twitter is meant for expressing free and frank opinion. Devotees of The Mother must interact

February 29 is the #GoldenDay. Very few people know the significance of this day. On this date in 1956              #SupramentalManifestation took place on a global scale in the earth's subtle-physical layer as a fruition of #SriAurobindo and the #Mother's Herculean labour to bring down the supramental Truth upon earth. Those who are familiar with Sri Aurobindo's writings, the concept of Supermind (or the Truth-Consciousness) is known to them. It is the master-key to unfold divine life upon earth. Since 1956 it has been incessantly working to manifest in the external physical life of the world. In the course of time, it will gather momentum and be perceptible to many. In the words of the Mother: 'The manifestation of the Supramental upon earth is no more a promise but a living fact,a reality. It is at work here, and one day will come when the most blind, the most unconscious, even the most unwilling shall be obliged to recognise it.' According to the Mother there are two points which resist strongly --- all that has to do with politics and all that has to do with money.

In Tagore's Post Office, Amal is sick beyond cure n pines for seeing an imagined far away  place under the hills. He can't tell about his real quest. Sri Aurobindo would have related this to " a blank prescience that yearns towards a distant change."
(Canto1, Savitri ).
https://twitter.com/GoutamGhosal3/status/1233763741696696320?s=19
Gandhi is moral; Sri Aurobindo spiritual. Gandhi is Western; Sri Aurobindo is Indian n Global. Radhakrishnan is not an original philosopher; Sri Aurobindo is an original philosopher. And yet Sri Aurobindo is neglected in the syllabi!  Why ? Ignorance or Politics ?
https://twitter.com/GoutamGhosal2/status/1140560113809285122?s=19
Right. But the philosophy departments of India have been ignoring Sri Aurobindo who is an original philosopher through his creative treatises  on the Divine Life, Yoga, Veda, Vedanta n the Gita.

Quoting Sri Aurobindo is fine. But the best is to quote briefly n relate the quote to modern context or explain it. That is the sign of an original mind who has truly understood Sri Aurobindo. We need such explanations.
https://twitter.com/rimabalaka/status/1233244683779944448?s=19

Perhaps the most important and original modern study of Yoga, vast and profound, is the Synthesis of Yoga by Sri Aurobindo. Neglected because it does not emphasize asanas but outlines a radical change of human consciousness.

On February 29, 1956, Supramental Consciousness descended upon earth in its embryonic state, as announced by The Mother. Its effects are difficult to perceive now, yet believing in its subtle action and Evolutionary momentum is a responsibility for all followers of #SriAurobindo.

While Savitri Era Party advocates switching to a scenario envisioned by Sri Aurobindo, there's no magic wand. Human nature has not undergone any appreciable transformation although intellectual recognition of its necessity is more or less stable. So next step is to popularise it.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1233356179818020865?s=19
No one can beat Sri Aurobindo in analysing the past and foreseeing the future. His stress on individual contribution for aiding Evolution is of profound significance. For instance, every tweet can be judged as to how much hatred it spreads. A few foreigners will rank at the top.
After seventy years, it can safely be asserted that the Constitution of India is thoroughly elitist and Utopian. Auroville was surely ambitious which was founded after twelve years of Supramental descent. But the Constitution, without any spiritual foundation, was merely a dream.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1233485743886098433?s=19
Thus the nation is at the cusp of a renegotiation of its social contract for regeneration of regional vitality. How local culture redefines its people without any reference to overarching abstract stipulations imposed by the Centre is in the womb of the future. May The Mother act
Quoting Sri Aurobindo and supporting scoundrels is an irony of our times. Lack of institutional dissemination of Sri Aurobindo's thought is the primary reason. There's no dearth of scholars with commendable self-study but slant is ubiquitous too. So no escape from subjective trap.
https://twitter.com/NathTusar/status/1233411075208597505?s=19
Most here draw immense satisfaction by spouting hatred and it has become part of their life's mission. Of course, all on the pretext of nationalism or protecting religion. Life is difficult; each one is entitled to find his or her own way of overcoming frustration and depression.
No first hand experience but even blacks in US will not have so much of victimhood as our educated and prosperous sections nurse. The way so many are suffering from the urge for getting rid of those whose forefathers were the ruling class, it's not going to vanish any time soon.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1233525311461101569?s=19
Earlier the general refrain used to be love, peace, and brotherhood. Now everyone clamours hate, hit, and kill. What has caused this slippery slope slide so fast is not known but is a sign of how power corrupts the thinking process. We retain hope on Modi govt but it's shrinking.
An artful way of ignoring Sri Aurobindo is to say I haven't read him much. If you are aware of everything under the Sun and have an opinion on any damn thing, then why this omission unless intended? Isn't it a sign of your rating him as worthless? Saying that is much more honest.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1232720019961896963?s=19
Quotations are a problem with Sri Aurobindo's way of explicating any notion spread over two-three pages. Further, a lot of prior attunement is needed which develops in the course of reading. Sri Aurobindo and Carl Marx by DPC is the most competently attempted critical enterprise.
https://twitter.com/NathTusar/status/1233012875507257349?s=19
Nothing wrong but ground realities are lightyears away. Such utopian idea is no different from the imaginary Hindu Rashtra at the other extreme in which so many seem to live. A more realistic conception of man in his organic setting is in order, now that the Science Day is over.
https://twitter.com/NathTusar/status/1233533749238915073?s=19

Btw, I had thought of visiting the ashram back in 2012, but haven't done yet- pure laziness on my part
Suggest one book I MUST READ OF AUROBINDO GHOSH to get some idea of his life & philosophy.
Q: WILL YOU CRITICIZE AUROBINDO IF YOU FIND HIM INCORRECT?
https://twitter.com/viswag59/status/1233750446117769219?s=19

.. Don't despair. I could sense that he was a great thinker. 
Using disagree to disagree you could point out his actual quotations and your own extensions.
Abstract comes after multiple concrete applied  manifestations. People are busy with their life work and fighting each other

Thanks for the suggestion, but for this podcast, it needs to be new books (last five years). So if someone has written a new book on Aurobindo, I'd be happy to look at it and see.
https://twitter.com/cmalcolmkeating/status/1229145531680604160?s=19

I haven't read it but appears to be a good overview. There are many other books also. Hope you check. Thanks.

Even in the period of the British Raj, how can you talk about the concept of Indian nationhood by leaving out such stalwart politicians like Savarkar, Aurobindo Ghosh, Shyama Prasāda Mukherjee, or Rabindranath Tagore. They all had varying understanding of what a Rāshtra meant.
I don’t think these intellectuals even know European history or analyze that with some lived experience in Europe. I lived in Europe for 10 years. This nonsense of connecting Hindu Rāshtra with German nationalism has to stop. It makes no sense whatsoever!

Savitri Era Party is the right alternative to Hindutva


Assorted tweets:

Forming a Hindu Party and capturing power are two different objectives. BJP opted for the latter through many compromises and will continue to do so. Clinging to a definite ideology is not practical since issues lose relevance with time. Art of the possible is the best definition.
https://twitter.com/NathTusar/status/1138846390048526336?s=19
We sensed moderation in the approach of Modi govt and extended support. Apart from people like Jaitley or RSS, Reliance may be responsible for the middle path. Hindutva and Dynasty are aberrations and must be thrown away. Following Sri Aurobindo therefore is the most sensible way.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1139435071331430401?s=19
Right from 2013 we have been telling that Modi is not the right PM candidate and a vast country like India deserves a better qualified one. So nothing much is expected of him than vacating the chair in 2024. Those discovering his betrayal must check their own intellectual calibre.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1139438682866192385?s=19
The life and mythology around The Mother & Sri Aurobindo has Hitler as a key figure like any epic and this new religion is to replace all other religions. Understanding this basic fact is necessary for right appreciation of their work. Those clinging to Hindutva need to wake up.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1140512091150831618?s=19
Ideological confusion continues among those who have captured power on false planks. It's good in a way in as much as new ideas are discussed or experimented. Past theories have their limitations and must not be applied uncritically. Only Sri Aurobindo remains relevant for future.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1141394080464695296?s=19
Savitri Era Party came into being twelve years back in 2007. Bringing Sri Aurobindo's knowledge to the forefront is possible if his followers form a formidable force to reckon with. Solidarity and concerted action is essential for this lofty goal; Hindutva needs to be jettisoned.
https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1142086609422077954?s=19
Even after successive spiritual experiences, Sri Aurobindo chose the intellectual route to spread his synthetic knowledge and Integral vision. No single text can impart that and the right course perhaps is to rummage through one hundred primary volumes with a childlike curiosity.
