Sri Aurobindo enthuses us to take to a life of scholarship

As persons I have not had the occasion to meet either Sri Aurobindo or the Mother but I came to Sri Aurobindo through the work of Srinivasa Iyengar. Prof. Iyengar has been a kind of eye-opener for me. Then I started working on Sri Aurobindo. I am sure Prema-ji started working on Sri Aurobindo ten years before I was born even, I think, because in the 1950s, she was working on Savitri. In 1957 she started working and by around I think 1960 when she finished her book—her monumental work—I was just a kid. Eventually, when I came to do my work so many years later, her book on Savitri was a piece of revelatory sort of experience for me and that I found quite challenging in two ways because I have always felt that the work of Sri Aurobindo needs to be read in multiple dimensions at the same time.

Phillips - 1989 - Preview - More editions Further, Aurobindo appears to hold that given that Supermind has created, or is creating a "world," a spatially and temporally extended manifestation of Brahman, it is possible that God revoke the primordially affirmative choice. Our world ...
Social psychology: the integral approach - Page 159 - N. V. Subbannachar - 1966 - Taking hold of the 'subconscient' and utilising it for the purpose of Integral evolution for Sri Aurobindo, appears to be of greater significance and implication than it is for Jung whose interest is limited to the 'digging up' of 'complexes' for ...

Revival of Upaniadic thought in contemporary Indian philosophy - Page 110 - Sankatha Prasad Singh - 1974 - Sri Aurobindo appears to have drawn inspiration from Heraclitus who was his favourite philosopher.

He bases ...

I use this comparison just to show that students of philosophy, without becoming devotees or...
Mother India: monthly review of culture - Volume 50 - Page 496 - Sri Aurobindo Ashram - 1997 - Not on 24 November but some time later Sri Aurobindo appears to have realised that the Supermind proper had not arrived.

Dilip Kumar Roy: a lover of light among luminaries - Page 221 - Amrita Paresh PatelLalbhai Dalpatbhai Institute of Indology - 2002 - He never mustered up courage earlier, respectfully, to leave Sri Aurobindo in search of a person who could satisfy his longing for Krishna. One may often feel that his love for Sri Aurobindo appears to be neither genuine nor rational.
Prabuddha bharata: or awakened India - Volume 78 - Page 132 - Advaita Ashrama - 1973 - At a few other places also in his analysis of the Isa-upanishad, Sri Aurobindo appears to accept the insights of Sankara, as for instance, when he says that, of Brahman 'the unity and stability are the higher truth', and that the 'chain of Karma only binds the movement of Nature...

Insight - Volumes 2-3 - Page 75 - Temple of Understanding (U.S.) - 1977 - Indeed, chapter five opens with a kind of apologetic about the difficulty of evaluating the impact of Aurobindo, appears to suggest that means for evaluation do not exist, and then by some unnamed criterion dismisses a critique by Zaehner.
Prajña - Volume 18 - Page 220 - Banaras Hindu University - 1972 - Sri Aurobindo appears to share this belief, especially when he posits that the lion's share of the individual principles of evolution remains unabsorbed in the evolutionary process.

Facets of Indian religio-philosophic indentity - Page 180 - Harsh Narain - 1983 - ... Sri Aurobindo appears to postulate two phases of descent, involution (but not of ascent, evolution), one for self-enfoldment, self-oblivion, and the other for self-unfoldment, self-recovery.

Aurobindo's Philosophy of Brahman - Page 39 - Stephen H. Phillips - 1986 - Preview - More editions Although he is somewhat insensitive here to the distinction between a fact and a theory, Aurobindo appears to claim that a non-mystic would be unable to test the truth of a pm0 or the veridicality of the corresponding mystic experience, except ...
Readings in Sri Aurobindo's The Life Divine Volume 3 - Page 100 - Santosh Krinsky - Preview While scientists and philosophers try to find some rationale or central theme in the evolution of species, Sri Aurobindo appears to have located the missing connecting point that explains the evolution as we see it occurring on the planet.
