In the world which sprang from it, it took no part:
It gave no heed to the paeans of victory,
It was indifferent to its own defeats,
It heard the cry of grief and made no sign;
Impartial fell its gaze on evil and good,

"All on that ladder mounts to an unseen end..
The pilgrimage of Nature to the Unknown..
And meet the Eternal’s wide sublimities
In the uncertain time-field portioned here.."

Auroville in tension again over road project
Democracy in the US allows a citizen to speak in this manner to the President. Hoping that one day, this can come to India too.
It's not about democracy, it's about culture. India has a high power distance. Here people are hesitant to stand up to any person of authority - politicians, bureaucrats, police or even their boss at workplace.
Nietzsche talked about the Overman or Ubermensch as the future of humanity. Sri Aurobindo described the Superman, a spiritual gnostic being, who would usher the next stage of human evolution. Are Vedic Rishis the prototypal forerunners of the next Vedic cycle and our next stage?
What else is the Mother’s music except the bringing down of these things? She does not play or sing merely for the music’s sake, but to call down the Divine Consciousness and its Powers.

We have always had warriors who are not kshatriyas.
Some media houses are proudly upright because they know the art of being informed without integrity. And to crawl without being asked to bend
See how quickly we break? And Hindutva political and social organisations have to build themselves based on inputs from such delicate darlings? I hve followed almost all JD discussions & come to admire & (SD) but this behavior is sick

Yes
Tufail abused tulsidas ji and Hanuman chalisa
RSS Arya samaj neo-cults & co are actually attacking & destroying Hinduism in guise of gharwapsi or nationalism or hindutva
That's what happens when you let Arya samajis take over .
Dayanand Saraswati broke Hindu idols because he didn't care about the Hindus who believed in murtis and this tufail guy called Hanuman chalisa bajaru because he doesn't treat Hanuman chalisa in front of Vedas.
It is true that for any Hindu Vedas are supreme but calling Hanuman chalisa bajaru is something no Hindu should let go.
It's like calling Rama names because he worshipped Shiva.
These Arya samajis are worst, their minds have become monotheistic.
He seems to be taking the RSS agenda of defaming Hindu scriptures forward. It also seems like RSS n it's stooges are the ones behind all those vile politicians abusing Ramcharitmanas and now Hanuman Chalisa.

For me, this Tufail is on same pedestal as Swami Prasad Maurya.. Both denigrated Bhaita Tulsidas ji's bhakti suktas and rachanas.. Maurya denigrated Ramcharitra manas and Tufail Hanuman Chalisa..
What is the difference in both. In fact, tufail is a kalnemi
I would've loved that too. But all Hindu scriptures don't have the same level of credibility even in the eyes of Dharmagurus. For eg, if there's a contradiction between Mahabharat and any of the 18 Mahapuranas, then, the view of the Mahabharat needs to be given more weightage... But as Hindus, we mustn't forget our established hierarchical traditions.

An underemphasized part of the Mother's personality is that she was an organizational administrator par excellence! In addition to being an artist, musician, occultist, yogi, etc of course.
The writings of The Mother & Sri Aurobindo are the best books on management and self-management. Knowledge of the whole is absolutely necessary for successfully dealing with the knowledge of any part. Further, no other book has this advantage of being illumined by Vedic insights.
