Devotees throng Aurobindo Ashram on `supramental
consciousness day` Deccan Herald Puducherry,Feb 29, 2012, (PTI)
Devotees today thronged
the Aurobindo Ashram here and paid homage at the memorials of Sri Aurobindo and
his spiritual collaborator, The Mother, on the occasion of the `Supramental
Consciousness day`. It was on this day in 1956 that `the Mother` is believed to
have realized the `supramental or divine consciousness` as a result of her
spiritual experiments. The Ashram was established by Aurobindo on April 24,
1926. He passed away in 1950. The Mother (Mira Alfassa), who died in November
1973, founded Aurobindo International Centre of Education in 1952 and the
international township
of Auroville

total number of Ashram inmates and devotees who protested silently from February 26th to 28th was around 270.

enjoyed the facilities and amenities provided by the Sri Aurobindo Ashram
Trust..."
At least this confirms from the proverbial horse’s mouth that this line that we
have been hearing for more than a year from agents of the trust both on Savitri
Era Open Forum and SAICE comes directly from "the very top"
They are speaking like owners or at least
anna-daataa type father figures and openly patronizing Ashramites. Not only
that they are laying claim to property and, much worse, loyalty that rightfully
belongs exclusively to Mother Sri Aurobindo.
Do they have no concern whatever that sadhaks will
not tolerate this kind of a domineering attitude and this daylight robbery from
Mother Sri Aurobindo?
