Sri Aurobindo was a fast writer n couldn't revise most of his texts. I appreciate the editors' work in the 2009 complete works. However, I don't use the revised Savitri (1993) n I don't appreciate anyone using it. I use the 1950-51 unrevised edition.

I am not talking of Sri Aurobindo’s revision of Savitri (1950-51 text). 1993 edition was revised by 2 of his disciples. Many of us don't accept that revision of Sri Aurobindo’s original Savitri . RYD has got Sri Aurobindo's text reprinted by a Delhi publisher. Huge controversy.

The now available Savitri (1993) is not entirely Sri Aurobindo's text. I wish all to use Sri Aurobindo's text which first came out in 1950-51 in 2 volumes. Contact RYD for Sri Aurobindo's original text. Or collect it frm a library.

it's always a joy & privilege for me to be in the company of Aurobindo devotees, I love this openness, & flexibility of thinking in both of u, that I see in rishi Himself, something miserably absent in a few of His followers though, but that is also by His will I presume

After He kneads you will also become flexible like us..don’t worry 🤣🤣🤣 our dealings are with Master..each of us..and at each level the Dharma most suited for that stage of development...limits will be set by Him, not by opinion of people..

Hey, I just signed the petition "Devotees and admirers of Sri Aurobindo: Deport Peter Heehs and his supporters from India" and wanted to see if you could help by adding your name.

Our goal is to reach 100 signatures and we need more support. You can read more and sign the petition here:

Everyone's opinion will obviously vary but Bengali victimhood clouds the overall picture. However, only one opinion matters in the matter: that's of Sri Aurobindo. Accepting his insights with humility is the only sane option. Emotions and arguments have no place before it. Thanks

Some of the  modern Bengali sociologists are allergic to Sri Aurobindo. Reason? Sri Aurobindo asks for a refined life style, which they can't practise. I too can't satisfy the minimum standard set by him. But I don't speak disparagingly of Sri Aurobindo.

It appeared downright blasphemous when Peter Heehs announced in 2008 that [The Aurobindo that interests me is the one who...was able to write a shelf full of books] but his own fetish for them (and lifelong engagement) must be seen as the redeeming factor. https://t.co/tFSy4kc1KC

Sri Aurobindo is regularly accused as an escapist and a slew of 'mudslinging' has been documented by Peter Heehs in his book, The Lives of Sri Aurobindo. A masterly work but also famous for its skew. Parts of it are available online free.

Mother's Agenda, edited by Satprem was highly controversial when published without consent of #SriAurobindo Ashram. The Lives of Sri Aurobindo by Peter Heehs also generated much heat a decade back.

Issuing the warning for the nth time in the public interest, especially for the budding Hindutva intellectuals and scholars (a rare species, indeed): Please don't contaminate your understanding of Sri Aurobindo via Danino, Elst, Frawley, or Gautier (DEFG). https://t.co/q7pc8io2X5

https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1120338888118231040?s=19

Danino, Elst, Frawley, Gautier, and Heehs, though sound sympathetic, are responsible for misrepresenting the message of Sri Aurobindo. (TNM55)

https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/203824154770817024?s=19

"Sri Aurobindo is uncompromising" Danino tells evocatively "he rejects humanism and all hopes for a more 'moral' human being as shallow and ineffectual, and insists on a fundamental change in human nature as the only hope for the species' survival." But AIT is his Achilles' heel!

https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1041891468456148993?s=19

Scholars from Ambedkar to Ashis Nandy, from Sita Ram Goel to Arun Shourie are just primers and shouldn't be allowed to be the final template. Even Rajiv Malhotra and S.N. Balagangadhara, Koenraad Elst or Michel Danino fall in the same category. Sri Aurobindo is the finishing coat.

https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1024930015169929217?s=19

The Mother & Sri Aurobindo can't, definitely, be identified with one nation; they worked for the whole humanity or rather to transcend it. Those who are in love with a muscular representation of Sri Aurobindo's political philosophy are, of course, entitled to such a tunnel vision

https://twitter.com/SavitriEraParty/status/1146785732440158210?s=19

K.R. Srinivasa Iyengar's biography of Sri Aurobindo is till date the best one. It is not "hagiography" at all. It is subtly critical n balanced. When d subject's name is Sri Aurobindo one has to be extremely careful. Criticise we must but on bended knees!

https://twitter.com/GoutamGhosal2/status/1135945497674313728?s=19

Iyengar was a trained critic, got his D.Litt. on Lytton Strachey in 1938. Sri Aurobindo didn't interfere with the interpretations; he just corrected some facts.

Let me tell you as a precis  the mischiefs done by a foreigner who wanted to  sell his book. 1. Can a biography of Sri Aurobindo be written thoroughly in an ironic style? 2. Can a person totally untrained in literature n poetry write a biography of Sri Aurobindo? Unpardonable.

From the age of fifteen Michel Danino was drawn to India, some of her great yogis, and soon to Sri Aurobindo and Mother. In 1977, dissatisfied after 4 years of higher scientific studies, he left France for India, where he has since been living. #quotes https://t.co/9eMYNEJOVj

Michel Danino is an author and historian with works such as the "The Lost River: On The Trail of the Sarasvati" to his credit. Influenced heavily by Sri Aurobindo and The the Mother, he left France for India in 1977, and has been living here ever since. #quoteoftheday https://t.co/25RqRgjPAs
