Tusar Nath Mohapatra

Thanks for the nice review but the critical aspect seems to be stemming from an erroneous translation of Tarjama as Analysis. Tarjama is more of an Account or Interpretation while Bishleshana is the right word for Analysis.

SATYAM BRUYAT - Justice Katju : Is there a God

Tusar Nath Mohapatra 25 February 2015 at 04:41 There is no better book than The Life Divine by Sri Aurobindo that explains the existence of God in relation to the world. [TNM55]

Why it's that people don't refer to Sri Aurobindo singly? He is always surrounded by 3-4 other names. This implies lack of precision. Also, posing of erudition though lacking in depth. But, many do it deliberately to downplay his greatness as if there's nothing special about him.

Thanks Alan. Your valiant fight will always be remembered in the circle of admires, devotees, and followers of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo. Almost fifteen years now when there were only a handful who had read and had the courage to say the right thing with so much of conviction.

Yes, his ideas are so revolutionary they don't fit the new paradigm integral movement etc, especially with the Western premise that there is no one special person or unique insight

philosophy autobiography: Zizek and Rorty on the Real

Tusar Nath Mohapatra said... If you specifically don't include the teachings of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo, then the generic phrase, "Eastern practices" becomes a bit misleading. As per their thinking it is never "a final attainment or resolution," but rather participating in the perpetual evolution and consciously pushing its frontiers.

Contemporariety is no assurance of wisdom and a wider perspective would carry us safe.
