Birth anniversary of SriMaa celebrated at Koraput on 21st

Birth anniversary of Sri Maa was celebrated at Sri
Aurobindo Bhavan , Koraput on 21st Feb-2012 . While children and followers of
Sri Maa & Sri Aurobindo offered Dhup and Flowers at the Relics, the
presence of eminent Sadhaks like Anadi Bhai added more strength to the
aspiration of all.
Those who see Sri Aurobindo and the Mother as
separate from each other are frankly making a huge mistake. Both of them always
held that they were the same consciousness and that there was no distinction
between them.
aurotruths commented on New content: Attempts to create an "Aurobindonian
religion" … it must be said that just because Makarannd Paranjape
thinks that They encouraged a cult, it doesn't mean that it was so. Those who
opine upon and judge Sri Aurobindo and The Mother superficially are likely to
derive conclusions that differ from those clearly spelled out by Sri Aurobindo
and The Mother Themselves. We therefore do not need a Makarand Paranjape to
tell us whether Sri Aurobindo and The Mother contradicted themselves or not.

your penchant for appearing objective and fair while leaving a backdoor for

damage done to the scholarship on Sri Aurobindo at stake.
BABUL'S WORLD: Judgement of The Mother But at present you
hardly come across as one who has the Knowledge or the Call. I can imagine
there is much which can be changed for the better, in Auroville, in the Ashram,
in India ,
in the world; but where does that change begin? Nay, Their workings are far
more complex, intricate, and mysterious, and "One man's perfection still
can save the world…" 9 July 2008 14:00
We are not suggesting that the institutions that Sri
Aurobindo and The Mother have established, such as the Sri Aurobindo Ashram or
Auroville, are free of problems or cannot be criticized. Everyone is free to
poke their nose into the internal affairs of these institutions or criticize
them to their heart’s content if it so pleases them… Lastly, we do not
claim to posses the Truth, but we believe that we can help remove those
obstacles that come in the way of or obfuscate Truth - especially those
obstacles that are in the form of deliberate misrepresentation and distortion
of facts or the creation of myths – by providing more reliable, accurate
and complete information. Administrators.

Many people think we are trying to establish a “new
religion” or that we are against this or that religion; there are many ideas
like that everywhere. But that doesn’t interest us at all! (The Mother, 27
February 1965)
Sri
Aurobindo Ashram -Delhi Branch founded on 12 Feb 1956.
The Delhi Branch was officially inaugurated
on 12 February, 1956, with the Blessings of the Mother. To the great joy
and gratitude of spiritual seekers in Northern India ,
the Mother graciously granted the very first Sacred Relics of Sri Aurobindo to
be enshrined here on 5 December, 1957.
He may have borrowed this notion from Aurobindo (I
think Wilber has not acknowledged the full extent of Aurobindo’s influence on
his writings). Aurobindo wrote that he was a practitioner of “mystic
empiricism”, an undertaking, he believed, was empirical in just the way
scientific inquiry is empirical!
But then Aurobindo never explained, although he
wrote several big books, the actual process by means of which he allegedly
arrived at knowledge of “occult worlds, entities, and forces”, not to mention
the modus operandi of harnessing them, e.g., “Yogic force”, to allegedly cure
illnesses, influence world events, etc.
