Sri Aurobindo was definitely the most original Indian thinker of the past few centuries.

Make it globally. He stands head and shoulders above the rest and his body of work is as wide as it is deep. It's tragic that he isn't talked about more often.
Please don't touch our Great one's with your caste bigoted mindset.
This caste bigotry is the misery making karma of India.
As long as India is divided by artificial boundaries, she will not be able to raise herself up to perform her Souls' Duty #SriAurobindo
While making a peep into psychological & sociological consequences of colonization that led to a disconnect from our culture & civilization, Dr Kundan Singh speaks on how to decolonize Indian education in alignment with Sri Aurobindo’s views. #SangamTalks
Noooo please not Swami Vivekananda and Gandhi in the same breath.
Gandhi hardly had any influence of Swami Vivekananda. Otoh Gandhi was practicing the Christian path of religion.
As #SriAurobindo said he was more Christian than the Christians (paraphrasing)

I hadn't realised this. Sri Aurobindo as always widens your perspective ever more

Informing the life and message of Sri Aurobindo for all is the task at hand
To understand the vision of Akhand Bharat and its interpretation, every citizen must know the life and message of Sri Aurobindo, that is Hindu-centric thought and philosophy.
D1 Sess.3, Dr. Meena Dhanda, of clearly stated that Hinduism & “Hindutva” are inextricably linked. She disparaged some of the most iconic Hindu leaders such as Swami Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo and Mahatma Gandhi and essentially declared them as “Hindutva ideologues.” 7/n
Inhumane. Its those great Hindu men from Vivekananda to Vidyasagar & many others who were inspired by these that Mother India still lives but hasn't yet performed her soul purpose towards the World because Indians are divided by artificial boundaries & prejudices #SriAurobindo
Sr Goel showers praises for Dayanand in his book, "How I became Hindu" and says as below:
"It was years later when I read Sri Aurobindo's Bankim, Tilak, Dayananda that I bowed, in repentance and renewed reverence, before that fearless lion of a man who tried his best to ...
Don't make false statement in the name of Sri Aurobindo...
#SriAurobindo said Hindus..All Hindus lost Kshatriya spirit...
Odisha included if Odisha has Hindus
Dr. Kundan Singh, Core Doctoral Faculty at Hindu University of America, sheds light on the cosmological & psycho-spiritual underpinnings of Varna-Jati system and its present maligned state as explained by Sri Aurobindo.

Sorry to say about Pita ji understood it wrong...
I have always had to say loud and clear that #SriAurobindo ,Vivekananda, P Yogananda are Hindus spreading Sanatan Dharma.

Radhakrishnan had another known case of piracy. In his lecture published in Hindu in July1936,he had stolen not only SriAurobindo's ideas but had actually lifted several sentences en masse. Prof. Mahendranath Sircar & others wanted to take action.But SA dissuaded them. SA's view:
Sri Aurobindo may be great or may not be great
Since you claimed that AUROBINDO is Inspired by Vedic
Just tell me do you organize any VEDIC-Dharma Practices like Yagya/Yaaga/Homa/Puja of Hindu Devi Devtas or not
Word Hindu has multiple meanings & here I feel Sri Aurobindo used it to refer to the most outwardly or customarily religious sense of it. Her Dvinity as Cit-Shakti & that of Sri Aurobindo as Sat-Purusha is the dual dynamic & eternal base of Indias exo/esoteric theistic traditions
The religionists are trying to use #SriAurobindo as a mascot of Hindu religion. It's a gross misconception. He terms "intellectual dogmas, forms and ceremonies, on some fixed and rigid moral code" as "not the essence". Change of consciousness is the key.
One must visit Sri Aurobindo ashram and see the life the ashramites lead. No Hindu (or any other religious) festivals or rituals commemorated. There must be a good reason why the Mother wanted things to be this way.
They r wrong.
I follow Sri Aurobindo that d Rigved is the true Ved. Ved in singularity is a misnomer.
Samved has only 75 M'ntr of its own. Yajurved has over 650 M'ntr borrowed from Rigved+ over 350 on Agni. Agni & Indr, most dominant Vedic deities aren't worshipped now by Hindus
for eg, Sri Aurobindo had a very non-conventional interpretation of the Gita. But his intent was Decolonial. Hindus who wish to engage with that do. The way BORI is interpreting is harmful. Knowledge production cant be separated from the power structures that produce them.
Worryingly like Hindus of the last century did to Gandhi Hindus of today, even sincere followers of Sri Aurobindo, give blind allegiance to their leaders. So prblm is not Afghanistan but Hindu leaders & Hindus themselves who r doomed by their own incurable meekness to lose India.
Savitri Era Religion is against Hindu mythology and rituals. Its only condition is faith in The Mother & Sri Aurobindo. Modern generation needs such a religion free from irrationality and superstitions. It's a global fraternity with Centres in almost every country. All may join.

Indians are so habituated in worshiping multiple idols that exclusive faith and surrender to The Mother & Sri Aurobindo sounds as fascist. But for Savitri Era Religion, that's the reality. Those flouting are themselves to blame. Coming under the umbrella of a common faith crucial
Critical appraisal is not opposition; it's done out of sympathy. But Gandhi was in the field and had to be utilised for specific purposes. Hindutva, as we understand today, was absent then. By Hindus, Sri Aurobindo meant Indians. There was no communal angle in his thinking.
No greater self-delusion than assuming that The Mother & Sri Aurobindo established the Ashram for furtherance of the Hindu cause. Even to say that they attempted a Vedic revival would be wrong. Descent of the Supermental is an unprecedented task and it was their lifelong pursuit.

[Sri Aurobindo disclaimed founding a religion. No religious teacher claimed founding a new religion. The question is not whether Sri Aurobindo refused to claim or denied he was founding a new religion but whether his disciples and the community thought so]

The Mother & Sri Aurobindo might not have approved it but belonging to some religion is a legal necessity. Devotees are facing embarrassment for being identified as Hindu and hence this new Savitri Era Religion. We also demand early govt recognition for it
Terms like Hindu, Hindutva, or Sanatana Dharma have become controversial and hence I had introduced the phrase Savitri Era in 2005 for distinguishing the devotees of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo from the rest of the crowd. In 2006, I formally declared it to be Savitri Era Religion.

Golwalkar came from the RKM stable and like all RKM initiates, antipathy towards Sri Aurobindo is ingrained. Itś convenient as you don´t have to read much or difficult stuff. RSS pays lip service but understands that SA's interpretation of the Veda is subversive of Hindu Rituals.

I reiterate that your intention is noble but there are flaws in your assumptions which I seek to rectify. Hindu Spirituality is not something monolithic and you yourself have mentioned only three names. Calling them as enlightened souls is also a supposition. Follow #SriAurobindo
Diametrically opposite views on religion and tradition are harboured by the Hindu enthusiasts and Marxists with the latter stealing a march on the question of modernity, secular ethos, and a critical approach. #SavitriEra draws the best of both as per #SriAurobindo's inspiration.
No need of much intellectual muscle or political acumen. Just by following #SriAurobindo, one is assured of being in the right path. That's a great advantage when one is witnessing entertaining slugfest among various factions of Hindu stalwarts. Not reading Sri Aurobindo apparent
