Another distinctive quality of Savitri is its remarkable multi-facetedness. As a specimen of apocalyptic literature, for example, it lends itself to ample interpretation on several counts. So numerous are the various aspects of Savitri as apocalyptic literature that a considerably large volume can easily be written on each one of the aspects. The same applies to its nature as an epic poem.
Savitri is an Indian specimen of apocalyptic literature not merely because its author is an Indian. It is Indian because the quintessence of all the various spiritual, philosophical, religious, occult and cultural aspects of life led in the Indian subcontinent since the Vedic times are integrated in it. As such, in spite of its inclusion of so much of the thought, philosophy and culture of the West into it, Savitri is most unlike anything that is Western.
This being the inexhaustible nature of the aspects and qualities of Savitri, the one almost insurmountable difficulty of a doctoral researcher venturing to explicate any given aspect of the epic is of trying to do justice to its paramount significance and yet limit himself or herself to the academic rigours of the viable size of the doctoral thesis. The academic study undertaken in this thesis is no exception to this. To deal with the salient features of Savitri as an Indian specimen of apocalyptic literature within the limits of an academic thesis is a task by no means easy or simple.

What if restoring nature began with simply leaving the soil undisturbed?
Nearly 30 years ago, Krishna McKenzie transformed degraded land in Auroville into Solitude Farm, now recognised as a leading example of regenerative agriculture and biodiversity restoration. Inspired by Japanese farmer Masanobu Fukuoka, the farm grows hundreds of plant species without chemical fertilisers, pesticides or heavy machinery, while also educating thousands of visitors on sustainable food systems.

Episode 2 is here. How did a disagreement over who should administer Auroville evolve into violence, legal battles, and eventually an Act of Parliament? This episode explores one of the least discussed chapters in Auroville’s history—and why the events of the 1970s and 1980s still matter today. History has a remarkable sense of irony.

Here Amit Shah talks of how Calcutta University VC Dr Shyamaprasad Mookerjee honored Bangla in his role as VC. In the same speech he pays homage to Subhas Babu as the greatest revolutionary of India. He also pays homage to Shri Aurobindo, Bankim Chandra and Bande Mataram, Rabindranath youtube.com/live/jlHl0oLmi…
That’s the whole point. One doesn’t need to pull down one icon to honor another. It’s incomprehensible why WB BJP President started behaving like Bangla Pokkho, in trying to glorify Shyamaprasad Babu by pulling down Subhas Babu. Don’t dyed in the wool Sanghi Jis lack some common sense, some political sense, granted they haven’t read any history and have grown up on RSS Shakha propaganda! That’s the wh
