May correct mild refractive errors less than 1 dioptre. Aurobindo Ashram Pondicherry conducts classes. I went there for one week. Then did for 2 years. Initially 1 dioptre and 0.75 dioptre improved in first 3 weeks. Then static. But I would recommend those exercises because though it doesn't make you glass free, they relax the eyes and reduce or even stop eye strain and visual stress related exercises. In this era of too much gadget use they are more relevant

Sri Aurobindo was a political and social rebel and in the process of his transformation to a sage delineated highly inspiring supramental pathways to the future

On the invitation of the SRI AUROBINDO STUDY CIRCLE at JNU, was happy to deliver the Inaugural Address on the Life & Legacy of Sri Aurobindo. A very energetic and engaged group of scholars, students and faculty is at the core of this creative effort. Immensely enjoyed speaking to this young group and engaging with them on one of my favourite topics - Sri Aurobindo’s life, his politics, his philosophy, his vision of India. Today can see the Sri Aurobindo’s vision for a free and great India being fulfilled in every dimension of our national life. A laudable endeavour, may the effort grow from strength to strength - Thanks Prof Atrayee Saha and team!

The decisive criterion is whether an organisation’s or cult’s foundational doctrines and practices implicitly or explicitly affirm the foundational Hindu metaphysical first principles based on Veda and remain substantially within Hindu religious framework. On that criterion, Sri Aurobindo, Arya Samaj, etc are within Hindu fold.
