Then the Aurobindian criticism of Sankara is futile, for his position is not much different from that of Sankara. If still he sticks to the position of a realist, the Jaina position is un-alterable. However, such a theoretical and ...
Mother India: monthly review of culture Sri Aurobindo Ashram - 2007
After all, the Aurobindonian narrative sounds surprisingly similar to some ears as the Hegelian one; many there are who read the regime of globalisation as the materialisation of the Brahman, even of that specially mystifying ...

"From this view point, the Jungian individuation theory is a pointer, a stepping-stone to the Aurobindonian transformation."10 The congruence of their findings can be seen as follows. The predecessors of Jung explained the ...

He spent 11 years in Cellular Jail, from December 1909 to December 1920, after his death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment. He was released via amnesty.

I’m creating this thread to share my thoughts and a summary of Pujya Swami Karpatri Ji Maharaj’s book “RSS and Hindu Dharma.” Swami Karpatri Ji was a contemporary of Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya Ji, a friend of one Shankaracharya, and the Guru of another... But hurt by the betrayal of RSS, he authored this remarkable book on the RSS — a true masterpiece of critical and analytical thought that surpasses the rigor of most modern humanities research. If you genuinely wish to understand the RSS, this book is essential reading.
2. Swami Karpatri Ji presents a point-by-point rebuttal of M.S. Golwalkar’s book Bunch of Thoughts, exposing the RSS ideology as non-Hindu, ethically and morally shallow, and fundamentally baseless—an ideology that enables the exploitation of weaker individuals by a cruel, dystopian organization.

Do go and read this book to understand why Western societies are far more evolved in terms of fairness and equity. It is core and foundational, but it is not accidental. It is the result of a very careful process of evolution and education. Our laws are still British era with the same language that existed then. But the people implementing them are no longer British. There is a reason why English Common Law is the preferred law in most countries in the world.

The "opinion" of any desi officer in any government agency is almost never going to be fair and unbiased.

This is not correct. Most people who work long hours have no idea how to do intense work. I started my work career in the US and worked in niche high performing teams until I moved to India. To my shock the work culture in India in the same FAANG company was lax compared to the HQ in the West Coast.
Yes, people in India do spend longer hours at work but with a lot of chit chat, chai / smoke breaks, and often two people solving a problem best done by one brain.
We need to learn to work hard, not work long. We should learn to dedicate time for our hobbies, aka soul food.

As acting teacher Sanford Meisner always said, just reading the script isn’t enough. You need to tap into something deeper: your lifetime of watching and understanding other people. Since birth, we’ve been reading faces, body language, and voices to figure out what others are thinking and feeling. We don’t need psychology degrees, this stuff is hardwired into us. But how exactly does this mind-reading ability work?...
Your mirror neuron system needs to see and feel the physicality of performance to really kick into gear. It’s why rehearsal and actually embodying the character is so crucial.

Postscript | Popular sitcoms from the early 2000s normalise upper-caste Hindu identity as the cultural default, feeding into contemporary Hindutva-aligned victimhood discourses in Indian media and politics.

11 months after his release from the concentration camps, Viktor Frankl gave a set of lectures on moving beyond optimism and pessimism to find life's deepest source of meaning. They were lost for decades, never before published in English—and now they are:

Before considering the reformer who incorporated Darwinism most decisively into Vedānta, we briefly mention Sri Aurobindo, who made extensive use of Darwin's theory, but who is difficult to evaluate on account of the complexity of his philosophy and the fact that he appears to have borrowed much of it from unacknowledged Western sources...
The evolutionary sequence of avatārs is similar to Keshub Sen's, and may have been taken over from him. Although Aurobindo posited a linear type of human development from primitive life‐forms to superconsciousness, he does not appear to have explicitly denied the traditional picture of a cyclical cosmology.
Aurobindo may be classified together with Vivekananda and the early Reformers who responded to secularization by adapting the Hindu tradition. His personal experiences played an important part in his reaction against the West, but his critique of Western science as something that created artificial divides between objects and people was an important point which has subsequently been taken up by others. His idea of an evolving universe, though technical and confused in its detail, was an imaginative adaptation of traditional Hindu thought, though he would probably have been unable to conceive of it without borrowing from unacknowledged Western writers...
we were wary of Sri Aurobindo on account of his complex terminology and use of unacknowledged sources. - David L. Gosling, Zygon: Journal of Religion and Science

For a time, particularly during his agnostic phase in England, Sri Aurobindo was interested in the idea of the "Unknowable," a concept widely discussed in philosophical circles and popularized by Spencer... Ultimately, Sri Aurobindo's engagement with Spencer was a critical stepping stone, not a source of deep influence. - GoogleAI
