Just for the record, my own personal 'favorites' are Vivekananda, Ramakrishna, and Sri Aurobindo - all of whom represent what we can call 'modern' Hinduism. ...

The work of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother in the twentieth century furthered our understanding of “the mind of the cells” in a supramental consciousness ...

Envy

Sri Aurobindo (1872-1950), who had a strong influence on the development of the intellectual as well as practical aspects of yogic spirituality in the twentieth century, regarded envy and jealousy as emotions associated with a typically human, nondivine "way of vital love," which he characterized as a "way of ego and desire." Due to envy and jealousy that naturally accompany this type of love, and to the frustration that results when its demands are not met, the outcome is sorrow, anger, and disorder. For Aurobindo, envy and jealousy are destructive—though natural and typical— features of human nature. Aurobindo shares the classical Hindu yogic perspective that yo-gic discipline enables one to overcome envy and other vices.

I am not surprised at all. Paulette, inspite of all the flowery and decorative-emotional language on all the senior sadhaks, and Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, will not bat an eyelid when it comes BETRAYING the sadhaks and Mother and Sri Aurobindo. Be it known to all that she supports Peter and his book. Like most Westerners her loyalty is to the West. She is also deluded and caught by this ghost of East-West divide. This is an egoistic identification. And these senior sadhaks that she keeps ranting about, has she bothered to see how they lived and their loyalty to Sri Aurobindo and the Mother? Would they ever insinuate an emotional/marital/sexual relationship PUBLICLY in writing between the Mother and Sri Aurobindo. Those who support the book are all traitors even though they do not intend to be. Posted by Anonymous to Savitri Era at 10:26 PM, September 30, 2010
