Cosmologists find themselves in the awkward position of being stuck inside the very system they’re trying to observe. We spoke with the brilliant — and sometimes controversial — physicist Lee Smolin about how he approaches the problem.

Caste-based privileges continue to plague both the mentality of humans and the institutions created by them. There is only one solution to this – caste annihilation from the upper caste mind.

All avenues - devotion, action, knowledge or surrender to Supreme Being - resorted to by one in the journey towards Divine is Yoga and in this book Sri Aurobindo synthesizes them all into one discipline of Yoga. https://t.co/sczTzh4NXN

Sri Aurobindo offers an advanced psychological theory. He is also a therapist of supreme expertise. Read him n verify the truth of my statement.
One should start with the Letters on Yoga. Then The Synthesis of Yoga. Lastly Essays on the Gita.

Nehruvian camp can never appreciate Sri Aurobindo as their prejudice is deep rooted. Hindutva bandwagon is equally apprehensive of his eminence and sidelines him. It's for the people to read his books to understand his greatness, firsthand, instead of depending upon endorsements.

Why I haven't read Sri Aurobindo's philosophy so far? Each educated Indian must put this question to himself. He is key to understand the 20th century thought currents surrounding Marx, Darwin, Nietzsche, Freud, Bergson, James, Jaspers, et al apart from Vedic theory of Evolution.

The name of Sri Aurobindo is often mentioned in "one of the greatest" lists. This is one of the most ambiguous and deceptive modes of describing him which in effect undermines his status. Make no mistake about it, Sri Aurobindo is the greatest Indian as well as in the whole world.

In the kannada play 'ashwatthaaman' which is inspired by Sophocles' "Ajax", we see that Ajax's character is equated to Ashwatthaaman and Odysseus is equated to lord Krishna.

Boris Johnson and Donald Trump are united in contempt for truth. But their popularity reflects national differences: posh Oxford eccentric for a UK nostalgic for its former glory vs bombastic plutocrat for a US angry and anxious over current decline. https://t.co/4vQDevdHXY
Trump brags about his IQ but is decidedly anti-intellectual. He lives in tasteless luxury and relies on his crudeness for a common touch. Boris actually writes texts longer than tweets and wants to be seen as an intellectual, but interprets that as license to misrepresent facts.
