Dr faustus European mind is far more yogic than her Indian counterpart, society & religion do not represent yoga, individualism or inversion towards own self is the very first step, that Europe has taken & nurtured through last few centuries. India remains lost in very first stair.

One can't be a follower of d new yoga n at the same time constantly go back to the past, to half-revealed stuff of d old days. That which is eternal is only to be taken from the past-- the other temporal stuff fall away by an evolutionary push towards the future.
This handy compilation is three to four decades old but remains neglected. Let's hope both the scientific community and those dealing with Humanities look at it for some bold pointers at this time of crisis. @NathTusar

Praying is the most contentious aspect since different gods and goddesses look absurd against the backdrop of a monistic virus. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo thought about all these aspects more than a century ago but educated Indians don't bother to listen to them. That's alarming!
Ultimately, it's about understanding oneself; one has to start somewhere. Sri Aurobindo enacted a Gita like situation in Kolkata but the real war he fought was against Hitler in Puducherry. Thus nationalism is not his final motive; its Evolution, and how it can tackle even virus.
Put well but your focus seems to be on the performer whereas my emphasis was on the sensibilities expected of the audience, i.e., each one of us. It's incumbent upon us to judge critically and impartially. Even a simple mention may amount to injustice to another. So no mean task.
Scores of metaphysical frameworks, theological formulations, or contesting ontologies. Myopic worldviews of science add to the woe of which people are helpless prisoners. Thankfully Sri Aurobindo provides the most stable picture of the world and a secure Evolutionary future of it.
Events unfolding and the story unrolling while watching a film feels normal but the truth is that every bit of it has been executed in advance. Life similarly is not a spontaneous or random movement as it appears superficially, writes Tusar Nath Mohapatra. https://t.co/AIw0G5KrMD
Integral yoga is about Evolution and not merely personal experience or salvation. Social dimensions of Integral yoga derive from the Vedic focus on Sangha, Samhita being a derivative. Sri Aurobindo (Bhawani Mandir) taking cue from Bhabani Pathak (Devi Chaudhurani) not improbable.

Absurd trolleys
by Amod Lele
It appears that the trolley problem is, as they say, having a moment. Possibly due to its newfound relevance to autonomous cars and other robots – a relevance that would have been entirely science-fictional when Philippa Foot formulated the modern version of the problem in 1967 – it is now making multiple appearances in popular culture. In that respect it is a notable counterpoint to the claim I made years ago that analytic philosophy doesn't make for good visual media.
