Sri Aurobindo’s idea of law as a self-creating process is closer to Hart’s model of law having authority in and of itself and being complied not because of sanctions but because of rules of recognition, having more acceptability.

Sri Aurobindo's writings on philology and his interpretation of various key words need careful study. I rely mostly on Sri Aurobindo's interpretation when it comes to the study of Samskrit, Veda, Upanishads and the Gita.
Aurobindo Ghose’s elaboration of the word Arya is even - correctly- detailed on Wikipedia. See link en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arya:
Was reading thread about Sri Aurobindo's book Bourgeois & Samurai, what I could grasp was only reason India lacks behind developed countries (in this case Japan) was because populace of India had started seeking comfort & security & developed distaste for disruption.
aurov... READ. Sri Aurobindo cuts through all the confusion and fog and strikes at the very heart of what ails India.

I should definitely read those works. They are on my list along with the works of Aurobindo.
Listen to "The Role of Sex in the Integral Yoga" by Sri Aurobindo Studies.
I'm coming from Sri Aurobindo angle
The Holy Mother (Maa Sarada) was probably the first great spiritual personality to to refer to Sri Aurobindo as ‘Mahayogi.’
#SriAurobindo150
After each of them had been presented to her…came the turn of Mrinalini Devi. The Holy Mother (Maa Sarada) stopped the lady & said, “You need not introduce her to me. I know her better than you. How can I be ignorant of the wife of Mahayogi Aurobindo?” ##SriAurobindo150
30 years my sister joined #GloriaLand of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram to work with my father who was a pioneer in organic agriculture in the 60s
Happy #mattupongal!
And yes whether Sanatana Dharma or feminism, I don't look very far for ideals. Why I dismiss bunkum summarily

This tells us what it might be and what shape it may take. Sri Aurobindo called it the Supramental.
Why Sri Aurobindo advocates right place for individuals in social order to create an organised society
Sri #Aurobindo’s political philosophy has not received much attention, although it may serve to enable political discourses of the day in a more structured manner
Be aware of articles like this. This is written in a very 'oh no those poor hippies, this is awful' tone, but Auroville is well-known for exploiting locals, and protecting the colonists.
Auroville has always been Colonialism 2.0
Lot happening in Auroville (India) over the implementation of the 'Galaxy Plan' and its vision for the city.
"Many Auroville residents fear the sudden push for development, is entangled in a larger Hindu nationalist agenda to co-opt the legacy of Aurobindo, or to turn their home into a lucrative site for spiritual tourism."
“A blueprint based on ‘sacred geometry’ was designed to build Auroville, a perfect city of unity. But 50 years on the Galaxy Plan has created anger and division.”
Story time! I was in India for a good few months in 2017, Auroville was one of our last stops. We were meant to stay for 3 nights, left after 4 hours. It was a white cult, built on what seemed like stolen farmland from locals. This is so unsurprising tbh
#Auroville - current crisis in this green #utopia as case study - interesting challenges for #solarpunk visions in general
Else how do we explain the feeling we get when we enter a place like Auroville or somewhere else. Vibrations cosmos works force works and it's physics...anyway Twitter perhaps not the place to discuss ..... In fine prayers work....
The #truth about #Auroville needs to travel far and wide - for its not about saving Auroville’s forests alone - it’s about saving all of those threatened with #extinction.

Missing Auroville and my time there. Just a kind of place which vibe in my frequency.
In this SuperSalon, , author of Better to Have Gone: Love, Death, and the Quest for Utopia in Auroville, joined writers and Interintellect hosts and to explore the pull of a perfect utopia.
Watch the recording here:

My food, water, and newspaper suppliers obviously are not acting out of benevolence but their own self-interest. It serves my self-interest too and can be classified as pure commerce. Yet time, place, and person makes each transaction not only unique but also knits social fabric.
I'm in the first year of my college fifty years ago; PU (Science) in BJB College, Bhubaneswar. Became a Science teacher in my own school in the village five years later before joining PNB after one year. Leaned toward philosophy thanks to Sri Aurobindo. Cricket never attracted me.
Twitter is a fertile field for praise and recommendation but the point to examine is who is the person and his background. So, be on your guard and don't go by impressive designations or institutional façade. Most are peddling misleading ideologies whose credentials are suspect.
Tabula rasa theory is largely discarded now but with adulthood come crowding a large number of ideas and capabilities in waves as it were. Professional competence emerges and risk taking propensity brisks up. But sadly taking due advantage of this prime period is often squandered.
Surrender is not merely devotional or religious; it has an Ontology of its own akin to Market. The empiricist view of human autonomy, or even serendipity, can very well be transferred to the ambit of a scenario where unseen forces are in charge and we have no control over events.

Replying to @srin151a
@srin151a @Ozymandias1993 Nothing is outside the Market and its progression is irreverent of human life span or Calendar divisions of time.
Each thing has its own merit, even Kathakali. But, considering demands of modern professions, Sanskrit retards intellect.
Unable to forget the tyranny of memorising Declension Tables in school, I don't think it's worthwhile to spend time on learning Sanskrit.
It's subjective; there can't be any fixed rule for human decisions.
[The flipside of.. the marketplace is the potential of failure. Failure is the dark side of entrepreneurship. There is no guarantee.. there are hundreds of thousands of stories of failure]
Writing these tweets from the soil of West Bengal reminds of the Bengal Renaissance and how The Mother & Sri Aurobindo can aptly be considered as its culmination. Many are sold to Hindutva or multiple heroes. Others take pride in arts and culture but time has come for The Mother.
The history of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo is so complex that deriving a sound appreciation is a difficult task. Besides, their unusually large volume of writings adds to the problem. No one can claim therefore that his views are authentic. Allegiance and paying obeisance are best.
Integral Yoga encapsulated Bankim's Anushilan objectives but The Mother's arrival transformed it more into a surrender-based proposition rather than tapasya. The grace aspect being the pivotal factor, it's a new religion but the word religion is anathema to most "practitioners."

India is yet to attract Western gaze in terms of sociological studies and Hindutva loves the pragmatic camouflage of a false religiosity. Human penchant for self-interest is at the heart of ideological ambivalence and lip service for culture and ethics. Festivals spur merrymaking.
