Today is the birth anniversary of a great integral yogi - TV Kapali Sastriyar, one of the greatest exponents of Veda, Vedanta and Tantra. A direct & close disciple of Ganapati Muni, Ramana Maharishi and finally Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. My pranam to him.

For @AtmosMag I went long on #Auroville, an experimental utopian township in India founded 50 yrs ago on a dream by Mirra Alfassa aka The Mother. The last few years have been a tumultuous battle between competing ideas of 'the city the earth needs'. Read:

One side aligns w ecological restoration & the primacy of the native Tropical Dry Evergreen Forest regenerated over decades by what Aurovillians call the 'pioneers'. The other has long been frustrated w barriers to the 'promised city'; this wasn't meant to be a 'retirement home'

Thinking about Auroville and came across this article today. If ever proof was needed that a difficult story can make for great reading through deep research, empathetic story-telling, and photos that really take you there...

Saw the photos again on the big screen. Brings such delight to the senses! So glad to have come across Shubham Lodha's work.

A Deeply Troubled World Urgently Needs Wendell Berry’s Essential Message of Peace with Justice

by Bharat Dogra countercurrents.org/2026/09/a-deep…

Wendell Berry’s work connected peace, justice, ecology, agriculture and economic life in ways that remain deeply relevant. Writing around the Iraq invasion, he challenged the idea that peace could be secured through violence and warned against economic systems driven by conquest, extraction and control. His defence of small farms, rural communities and the health of soil reflected the same concern with preserving the conditions necessary for human well-being. Bharat Dogra reflects on Berry’s ideas, their connection with Mahatma Gandhi’s emphasis on meeting needs rather than greed, and their continuing relevance in a world facing war, environmental destruction and growing economic inequality.
