Sri Aurobindo is new, unique, beyond all narrowness by virtue of his vast love for the Universe. Steeped in the scriptures, he leaves  behind  all past scriptures in his evolving Avatarhood. Grounded in a global tradition, he recreates the best of the East n the West.
https://twitter.com/GoutamGhosal2/status/1169669377618104320?s=19
His 8 prose works (1914-21) marked a revolution on multiple levels, spiritual (LD), non-sectarian exigesis (Essays on the Gita),  yoga of synthesis(Synthesis), history (HC), human harmony (IHU), Strife(WSD), deconstruction of "western  India" (Foundations), n poetry (FP).

Twitter removes my ego. Nobody cares for my posts. Fb nourished my ego with 500 likes! All "likes" without reading my posts! But I try do some work in social media. Responses in twitter are cold. Doesn't matter! Twitter curbs my big ego!

FB has made changes to its algorithm to personalize content.. if you like something once, it will put posts from the same page or interest or topic repeatedly.. same is if you ignore it once, chances are it gets ignored again.. so many people don't even know they missed the bus

Therefore the Twitter; discussions can spread awareness and stoke curiosity. Brick and mortar organisations have proved to be ineffective and stagnant. Besides, it's one world in the virtual space. #FiveDreams #WorldUnion #SriAurobindo @SavitriEraParty

for sharing ℹ️ about Orissa which believes so much in the teachings of #SriAurobindo & the Mother! No wonder that Orissa has wiped out its 🏷of a starving state having Kalahandi deaths ! @CMO_Odisha May kindly consider setting up a university in the name of SA ! @narendramodi

@CMO_Odisha May kindly consider to establish the university in the Name of #SriAurobindo in Kalinga region to wipe out the impression that wars are always disastrous!

Lets do what SA & TheMother did, that is bringing the Supramental Consciousness and Energies into the world. Twitter etc.. are too small. A few Pure Hearts can do a greater job, compared to Millions of people, Twitter, etc...
May GOD bless BHARAT and the world.

Art is where words can not reach, but where human imagination can go. "Aum". To go into the depths of human consciousness, as individuals, society.
In Advaitin terms, where something is its own essence, where Paramanu ceases and its Shunyam, Anantam, Satyam, Anandam.

Along with Subramanya Siva he  led the strike in demanding higher wages, better working conditions. The management finally agreed to the demands, and Aurobindo praised both VOC and Shiva in his Vande Mataram daily for their courage. #VOChidambaramPillai

Charged with sedition, he was confined in the Central Prison at Coimbatore from July 1908 to December 1910. The judgement was widely denounced, with even the British media claiming it was unjust.  #VOChidambaramPillai

I'm a scientist @BernieSanders. You're not.  In fact, you're not much of anything.  Do you have ONE Degree in science, engineering, mechanics? Even one?  The truth is you're an old-fashioned hoax and science is NOT a religion that is based on whether you "believe in science." https://t.co/UsRvCyo6rm

We have rationalists talk about the uselessness of worshipping stone,earthen etc idols.
The uselessness of singing bhajans to idols. Anantamurthy is supposed to urinated on an idol to check its power

The verse shared here is an english translation of one of the greatest tamizh lines on skanda. Translation here for the interested.  https://t.co/hMIOfQPKPy

Styx plays a crucial role in Hesiod's Theogony, where She is the first deity to effectively *choose* Zeus as sovereign, rather than being among His natural allies, as it were. This sets the tone for His reign, in which persuasion is the preeminent sovereign power.

This is wrong. Both Hindu and Greek sacred stories have clear definitions of the sacred. They are just different from the currently popular Monotheistic view. To look at the stories of Purānas as power games is absolutely horrid and reflects upon the inferior mind of onlooker. https://t.co/7nTXyBUaXB
https://twitter.com/vakibs/status/1169651304303607808?s=19
The fundamental divergence between the inclusive Hindu (or similar polytheistic systems) and the exclusionary systems of Monotheistic religions is that evil is not absolute in Hinduism. Evil is relative and arises due to an imbalance of principles, just like disease in Āyurveda.
The sacred is the opposite of evil. In Hinduism, this means the sacred is Pūrna (complete, harmonious: please read the essay in my pinned tweet) where as the evil/profane is incomplete and disharmonious.
This is very different in Zoroastrianism or in Monotheistic religions.
Once you postulate that evil can stand by itself (with the root being Satan etc), you necessarily have to devise a system of exclusion for that evil. From the perspective of Hinduism, that is a hollow and incorrect understanding of the sacred. Sacred can only be Pūrna (Infinite).

For ancient languages, it is different. Until recently, AIT proponents kept a charade that the invading Aryans were pastoralists who displaced an agricultural civilization. This is nonsense, never happened anywhere. So now they are trying to make claims on agricultural centers.
https://twitter.com/vakibs/status/1169861173723795456?s=19
The natural theory that fits to the data would be the Saraswati Sindhu agricultural civilization as the origin of the Aryan tribes. But this is being countered from Harvard by Increasingly convoluted theories. They are pushing the date of IE languages in India to very late dates.
Genetics is important. India needs to establish the Indian origin of the various crops (especially rice and millets), agricultural pests like mice, draught animals used in agriculture, and of course the farmers themselves. The current paper goes a long way in establishing that.
What the Harvard gang is doing, by “inputs” from linguists as they say in the paper, is to dig themselves into a deeper and tighter hole.. Arguing that Sanskrit has very late entry into India. This theory will collapse from the evidence in astronomy.

Despite imposition of Hindi and English local or coloqal languages amazingly hold the fort. Awarding Sovereignty to new nations constituted on the basis of local languages is a most logical demand. Odisha was the first such State formed in 1936. Megalomania around India must end.

Modern Odia songs by Akshaya Mohanty, Pranab Patnaik, Md. Sikandar Alam, Raghunath Panigrahi, & Chitta Jena deserve to be listened by people of other languages. Each of them has a golden voice and one can fall in love with their voice even if one can't make out much of the lyrics

Any one learning music or dance revers a Guru which itself is of religious nature and akin to believing in God. https://t.co/O4Tc9Q9Yjf

It's one's impression or interpretation which matters. Depends upon one's preference. Aesthetic moments are not continuous during a dance recital; one needs to snatch those few minutes disregarding other mundane concerns. There the art stands supreme; performer becomes secondary.
