Limits will be set by Him


Assorted tweets:

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:

Another #Nalanda denier found. Meet @AudreyTruschke, a privileged White women, apologist for #Aurangzeb's crimes against Hindus & Sikhs, lecturing me abt bigotry.

The single point mission of her writings is to whitewash Indian truth and create an alternative history that buttresses the fake narrative of Islamists of South Asia. Her shoddy scholarship  unfortunately is promoted by Indians.

The evidence behind the Islam-killed-Buddhism-at-Nalanda narrative is paper thin, although the bigotry behind it is formidable. See my article below for more.

Is population explosion truly religion based? Question needs honest reply. Attached map disproves this fallacy. Northern states are bursting forth. It's visible to naked eye when driving in those states. Not religion but politics is harming India more https://t.co/5MzKcSWQw7

This gender war that is being waged in the west trickling to our land, is one my recurring nightmares. With a billion population, imagine how quick we will be mutated to zombies if this fad pushes aside genuine transgenderism and takes front stage.

My piece today counters Rana Safvi’s lazy history, argues she’s taken facts selectively & that the Mughal empire was extortionate, nasty, economically stagnant and a nightmare for its citizens to live in. The British were MUCH better

What if an author absolves a real plagiarist who has lifted chunks of material from him or her without proper acknowledgement? Does the author’s absolution, like a papal bull, wash away the ‘sin’ of plagiarism?, asks @MakrandParanspe, https://t.co/6VbFmyVhGX https://t.co/Wy3TPSoNix

Of Mahua Moitra and Plagiarism | As someone who takes plagiarism very seriously and often warn young, upcoming writers about pitfalls of ‘lifting’, I am glad ⁦@MakrandParanspe⁩ has written this essay on plagiarism and thus started a conversation. https://t.co/xK99Dh3mhQ

In his new book on Aryan Invasion debate, Shrikant Taligeri refers to @KalavaiVenkat as "the racist-casteist Hindu activist Kalavai Venkat". Despite my problems with Kalavai, I find this does not belong in a research book.
Emotions --> Ad Hominem --> Book loses credibility https://t.co/qUB32PihXN

Many thanks for such a principled stand which will go a long way in cleaning the public sphere.

I think, the govt is following a well thought out approach. It has its own experts and analysts and let's rely upon them.

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
