Shift the attention from the past and focus on the future


Assorted tweets:

Few know the greatness of Maharishi Aurobindo! He had predicted much in advance that India would gain independence on 15 August 1947, as his divine birthday gift... YES! Sri Aurobindo's birthday is 15th August... It... https://t.co/vTwOOQfHJy

Hey India, the future is that-a-way

The Hindu-18 hours ago

A significant portion of India must develop the guts and good sense to shift the attention from the past and focus on the future. This section will dream up a future India, free the country at last from all the scars of the past. This section will be the “massive barrier-breakers of Immortality” to echo Sri Aurobindo’s words from Savitri. By the force of their thoughts and deeds, the dream of a lovely India can hasten to become real.

The philosophy of #evolution has a special status in the integral philosophy of Sri Aurobindo. There are two aspects involved-an ‘Involution’ (a downward movement) and an ‘Evolution’ (an upward movement) https://t.co/TsjSnzJjQ9

Politicians has a private stock market where they trade the "quid-pro-quo". Many transactions are done and the system stays alive. That's why a balance of power between all factions is important to the system. https://t.co/PKDIAtkJEl

Massive levels of corruption in nagar nigam gaushalas in certain states.  Hindus r so used to ideological corruption.  Other religions know this well n take advantage of it.

In terms of buddhi,  a younger girl is far weaker than seasoned woman.  In fact,  when a adult Muslim male comes back to hindu dharma,  in several cases,  his entire family I. E.  Wife n daughters come back!  They follow him.  So,  depends.

Women r easier to initiate into bhakti.  Somehow,  the first set of non hindu women coming to temple institutions looks impossible,  but if that somehow happens,  their alignment with their men will dislocate further.

A lot of people make this mistake Garima ji. Women are always more rooted in their culture than the men. Kisi bhi dharm ke hon.

Everything is useful but most religions are just covered with lace and jewelry by people, because people love to decorate everything, and they cover and cover what they are afraid is their ugliness... and eternity's frightening mystery.

It's never about, atheism, theism, deism, or any other ism, but always about people and people are same everywhere. In all its glory human nature is a mix bag of good and evil only varying in degrees.

There are people in this world who focus more on our similarities than differences. These are the people who inspire me. They bring us to common ground. They spread positive vibes. They pursue truth. They remind us that we are linked. Indeed, we're far more alike than we realize.

For those of u who are going through sleep issues,u can consider reading a few pages of Sri Aurobindo literature before trying to doze off, as someone rightly observed, the English of rishi is just like sanskrit mantra/verse, and helps calm down the nervous system/mental tension. https://t.co/OAKZOoc0qq

I can't vouch that it will give u a sound sleep like sleep pills, but at the least, it will remove agitations and tiredness of the mind that is not getting sleep. Though such intrinsic experiences may vary person to person, and some may find greater relaxation in shri maa word
Anna my point being that, bodies of language behave like flow of rivers, they change courses along the path of history, thus what u may not be getting into sanskrit as of 21st century, u may stumble upon certain hidden bengali literature of this end in kali yuga.

Of course I agree there. For each soul that is born to a language or has adopted it as his own, moulds the language to serve his world action. And in doing so, shapes the language too..Sri Aurobindo mentions what Tagore did for Bengali should suffice for 300 years..

No need to disparage Sanskrit..and certainly does not feel ‘mythical’ when the Shruti emerges from your own being in however diluted a form..hear/perceive it once and nothing is the same in you anymore..Bengali does not need such jingoistic support..

I find descriptions of paradisical realms and states from Savitri to be very good for reading before sleep, second only to passages that might resonate with your current circumstances.

transformation. He called it the "the Shadow". 
I also don't like to suggest yoga/dhyana as a cure except for myself and a limited number of others I know, because these are subjective processes. I can't know how well they even understand these and or how well they do these./3
