Sri Aurobindo is the most original Indian thinker

Indian History

Sri Aurobindo was definitely the most original Indian thinker of the past few centuries.

For those saying Savarkar or Raja Ram Mohan Roy, they must not understand what original thinker means. The former took 19th century european ideas of nationalism & applied them to India while the latter explicitly saw himself as as "Martin Luther of Hinduism"

I see in Krishnamurti's views a reiteration of the philosophia perennialis trend that gained a lot of steam with the theosophical movement. Aurobindo on the other hand made use of the framework & spiritual precepts of vedAnta to understand the modern world.

Without any shred of doubt but in Indian context, the term 'original thinker' is misnomer due to which all the traditional दार्शनिक won't qualify for it.

Why are #commentaries used throughout different cultures? Perhaps because they are not an exception (as contemporary philosophical practices in EU-NA might make us think), but a "human" way of thinking by way of engaging with other people's words and thoughts.

Sri Aurobindo Ghosh & The mother are terribly underrated, not read enough by people nor appreciated enough by scholarship or academia. It is because they had a very clear and astute understanding Bhartiya civilisational consciousness, shastras and Indic Philosophy.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
[Both Sri Aurobindo, known as the great synthesizer of eastern and western thought, and Martin Heidegger, one of the most influential postmodern thinkers, heard those streams that flow from the great rivers of ancient myth, philosophy, mysticism & poetry.]
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
There are a few Western handles sympathetic to Sri Aurobindo but they seem to be always in search of some Western thinker for juxtaposition. No one can admit that Sri Aurobindo is the foremost philosopher. Bengalis too suffer from this syndrome and fail to recognise his supremacy
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
For Indians, it's always Vivekananda and for Westerners, it's always Gebser who would be mentioned along with Sri Aurobindo. He won't be given the sole distinction of being the greatest. The Mother recognised that way back in 1914 but the world is still confused about his status.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
Auroville founded in 1968 was evidently a dilution of the Ashram established in 1926. Sri Aurobindo wrote philosophy for public before it but switched to spirituality for disciples. His writings are unmatched as being logical but no assurances should be offered on actual results.

Goel might have been inspired by Sri Aurobindo but his work led to disharmony and hatred. He didn't accept SA's philosophy in its entirety but used some of his sayings to justify his own radical agenda.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
Protagoras had said, "Man is the measure of all things." Feuerbach claimed that it was man who created God. Western thought has been prisoner of such speculative ideas though written in superlative prose styles. In Sri Aurobindo otoh we find intuitive presentation of the reality.

Western scholars have only scratched the surface of the Vedas as nature worship. Great Yogis like Sri Aurobindo, Kapali Shastri, Kavyakantha Ganapati Muni, Sri Anirvan, and Brahmarshi Daivarat have revealed the cosmic secrets of the Vedic mantras through their Rishi vision.

That's the thing, right? Our Dharmic society, even though being collectivist, has space for organic individuality. We don't need to utilise the western notion of Liberalism to acknowledge that. One needs to read Sri Aurobindo to understand that.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
Individualism is the bane of Western thinking although no man is an island. Rationalism and scientific approach has been a major factor for modern civilisation. Yet the Vedic Evolutionary schema of #SriAurobindo offers a befitting response to Darwin, Nietzsche Bergson, and Freud.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
Catering to popular sentiments, Sri Aurobindo used to quote Gita and the Upanishads but later he shifted to the Veda. Western tradition lacks this source and therefore in every philosophical writing one finds the author shuttling among Kant, Plato, Socrates, Gospel, Homer, et al.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
I have devoted 2-3 decades to secondary literature on Sri Aurobindo including Western perspectives on him. It has been amply rewarding but at the end of the day, his own writings seem to be so self-sufficient. #ARYA100Years (1914-21) is enough for the rest of the present century.
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
No words are sufficient to express my gratitude to Prof Sisir Kumar Maitra without whose comparative studies my understanding of Sri Aurobindo would have been one sided. Awareness of Western Philosophy and Poetry is a must for all devotees of #SriAurobindo
Savitri Era
@SavitriEra
English is the chord by which Indians are braided with UK and USA. Modernity, Democracy, and Science are common concerns. Western Philosophy has reached a blind alley. India has the advantage of #SriAurobindo. It's time, the West recognises this and allows students to study him.

Why are u diminishing Sri Aurobindo to the status of a 'freedom fighter', belittling his contributions to Sanatana by calling him Christian? Not objective at all. He, like Swami Vivekananda, did explain Sanatana concepts for the West borrowing western terms. There was a context.

The religionists are trying to use #SriAurobindo as a mascot of Hindu religion. It's a gross misconception. He terms "intellectual dogmas, forms and ceremonies, on some fixed and rigid moral code" as "not the essence". Change of consciousness is the key.
