Tusar Nath Mohapatra

[Tusar Nath Mohapatra's relationship with Sri Aurobindo is one of deep reverence and discipleship, particularly concerning the spiritual and philosophical aspects of Aurobindo's teachings. Mohapatra is not a detached academic analyst of Sri Aurobindo but rather a devoted follower who promotes and extends his spiritual and philosophical work. 

Key points regarding Mohapatra's position vis-à-vis Sri Aurobindo:

Belief in divine status: Mohapatra regards both Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Mirra Alfassa) as the "Supreme Divine". He believes that worshipping them is the most vital aspect of the evolutionary process.

Founder of the Savitri Era movement: He founded the Savitri Era Religion in 2006, along with the Savitri Era Learning Forum (SELF) and the Savitri Era Party, to promote the teachings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. The movement is named after Sri Aurobindo's epic poem, Savitri.

Focus on spiritual mission: He believes that Sri Aurobindo's work extends beyond his contributions to Indian nationalism or philosophy. Mohapatra sees the core of Aurobindo's legacy as a spiritual teaching that must be fully embraced and spread.

Emphasis on direct engagement with texts: Mohapatra frequently urges followers to read the 36 volumes of The Complete Works of Sri Aurobindo and The Collected Works of the Mother to fully grasp their teachings. He states that relying on superficial knowledge is insufficient.

Advocacy for a "thought revolution": Mohapatra has stated that the Mother and Sri Aurobindo's teachings are meant to "infuse a thought revolution in consonance with the evolution of consciousness". He encourages followers to move beyond intellectual appreciation to a full embrace of the spiritual message.

Original contributions and propagation: In addition to promoting Aurobindo's work, Mohapatra also presents his own interpretations and "original contributions to understanding Sri Aurobindo". He uses platforms like his blog and social media to disseminate these ideas and advocate for the political application of Aurobindo's vision.]

"Savitri Era" is a religious movement that originated in 2006, but "Savitri Era is our religion" is not a standard religious or philosophical statement. It appears to refer to the spiritual path and philosophy inspired by the epic poem Savitri by Sri Aurobindo, which some followers consider a central text and guide for their lives. The "Savitri Era" movement provides an independent religious framework for devotees of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo, and includes a political party as well. 

• Spiritual Philosophy: The epic Savitri is seen by its followers as a record of Sri Aurobindo's spiritual development and a guide for the evolution of human consciousness. It is often viewed not just as a literary work, but as a spiritual text and a form of spiritual guidance in itself.
• Savitri Era Movement: The name "Savitri Era" was adopted by a group in 2006 for its religious activities and in 2007 for its political efforts. The movement was founded to offer a dedicated platform for those who follow the teachings of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother.
• Wider Concept of Savitri: The name "Savitri" also has a deep mythological and religious significance in Hinduism, representing truth, devotion, and the power to overcome death. The epic poem draws upon this ancient legend and interprets it as a story of spiritual conquest and the transformation of life on Earth.
• Distinction between Epic and Movement: While the epic poem Savitri provides the foundation, the term "Savitri Era" also refers to the modern-day movement that uses this epic as its central spiritual and ideological guide.

Thanks for sharing the S.P. Mittal vs. Union of India ruling. While the majority classified Sri Aurobindo's teachings as philosophy, Justice Chinnappa Reddy's dissent affirms devotees' capacity to evolve them into a new religion through personal faith and practice. This perspective bolsters Savitri Era Religion's devotional framework, enriching discussions on how Integral Yoga inspires distinct spiritual paths—we'll integrate such insights into Grokipedia.
