Sri Aurobindo is India's greatest philosopher. He goes beyond all philosophers of the past and present. Read this book to understand his analysis of the universe and his vision of the future. #SriAurobindo Sri Aurobindo

. Was Hindutva & The RSS "a product of European fascism?" Not in the slightest, explains author & Indic Studies scholar, Aravindan Neelakandan | Watch: youtu.be/kfhcZAnUjRk Follow us | citti.net | #HinduGauravDiwas #Hindutva
(144) Dr. V. Ramanathan in Conversation with Aravindan Neelakandan - #IndicTalks
In a series of articles I present a conversation with an AI chatbot and myself. The dialogue -from one side driven by need for interaction, a serotonin need, and the other side by algorithms - meanders through topics and see where it heads:
In the second part, AI-AN samvad continues and slowly flows into the topic of evolution and its future .
In the third part, the conversation continues. The fundamental boundaries of knowledge declared in the formalism of Mathematics, can AI transgress and transcend them ?
This fourth part is the most intriguing part as we discuss religion. Can the next manifestation of Dalai Lama choose digital networks rather than neuronal ones?

Close study of The works of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo and their prophecies clearly reveals a dismal future for the dominant religions. Savitri Era Religion with its modern and evolutionary approach will cause the collapse of its predecessors. Uttarpara speech is merely embryonic
Rainbow & the Other: Savitri Era Religion will cause the collapse of its predecessors rainbowther.blogspot.com/2023/08/savitr Collated by Tusar Nath Mohapatra (b. 1956)
The incredible story of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo publishing a philosophical journal and later setting up an Ashram for spiritual practice is the most significant event of the last century. People should follow their legacy instead of being lured into the parlour of fake gurus.
Development in India has been progressive and so thinking that the present Prime Minister is a Messiah is delusional. People rating their Chief Ministers in Odisha and West Bengal is no different. Personality cult bulldozing democratic values and aspirations is playing havoc.
Reminds me of Krishna Chaitanya (K.K. Nair)'s famous pentalogy of Freedom. Your explorations too should lead to that destination. All the best.
