Super Ager: You Can Look Younger, Have More Energy, a Better Memory, and Live a Long and Healthy Life

… In the 1950s, she taught yoga to Hollywood notables. The list of yoga teachers that Tao Porchon-Lynch has studied with sounds like a who's who of modern yoga: Sri Aurobindo, BKS Iyengar, Pattabhi Jois, Swami Prabhavananda, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi …

We are on the cusp of change. If we are not careful, even history will not remember us https://t.co/dyPt9ngUh3
What is common between Hindutva forces and the founders of Pakistan? https://t.co/RdxRjcyhm9
“Amidst the clamour for retribution, we must listen carefully to the gentle voices that talk of forgiveness and compassion,” says Harsh Mander https://t.co/lCw8lrFue5
While I am ready to being wrong about this, I think Mohammedanism is far more robust than western modernity in its current trajectory. hence, if that were the only game in town M would win. However, if the more M-like manifestations of the 1st and 2nd Abrahamisms win within
I don’t think you are wrong. The other unknown variable though may be possibility of internal implosion amongst and within the marUnmAda
Eslam is near-perfect predatory system and immune to internal implosion (though mainly owing to relatively more degeneracy of others). That's how it stands today.
It's profitable to consult #SriAurobindo in these matters and examine his #ThirdDream. He is emphatic about the inevitability of Evolutionary trajectory culminating in a Vedic milieu. In the absence of any coherent theories either from Science or Philosophy he should make sense.
I'm not Hindu but regard the silent, complicit acceptance of Hinduphobia (as against the rightful rejection of Islamophobia) by the lib-sec elite as proof that lib-secs are neither liberal, nor secular, nor elite
Did waves of brutal Muslim invaders scythe through the subcontinent between the 12th & 17th centuries? Yes. Did they destroy thousands of Hindu temples? Yes. Did they convert lakhs of Hindus to Islam? Yes. Is this Islamophobia? No. It's history. https://t.co/KN5J6ek1YH
This is hysteria being offered as history. Akbar's nice jewels included Brahmins. Shah Jahan celebrated Diwali. Most importantly, history is history by definition. Is past being used to divert attention from today's faults? https://t.co/LkSltLrY7G
My views remain that we have wrong ideas of the past, be it Mughal or British. History is full of nuances crass political minds do not understand. Both ruled in predemocratic era. If Ashwamedha Yagna was held today, it would be called an imperialist invasion. https://t.co/awlORAyM1a
This itself is the kind of politics I speak of. When 300 million people are still below the poverty line and caste hierarchies dominate and equality is a joke, to speak of past glory is questionable. Modern civilization rests on today"s ideals, not yesterday's glories or sins https://t.co/l2jruuQYxC
It is a democracy now. I have my own individual rights to interpret and infer. If I can't define, neither can others https://t.co/NFGsbtQaGj
The big problem with these constant daily outrages is that we simply forget the big picture and bury ourselves in needless twitter outrages.
Liberalism in India is Islamism minus the topi!! Secularism in India is evangelism minus the holy water. Intellectualism in India is Hinduphobia camouflaged in fine English!!
What does this even? The Brits ruled entirely with the help of Indian soldiers and civil servants.
Get some brains. Sorry, had to say this. https://t.co/whpZ3j6wqQ
This is not about politics; this is about civilisations & faiths. And let's not pretend that the genocidal barbarism that India suffered is a predemocratic era phenomenon. Even today, wherever they get a little space, barbarians do what they always have. Silent majority supports https://t.co/QfYgkqtJKX
Andal seems to be a target of re-interpreters.
Her beautiful sacred compositions are not a mundane 'coming of age'. Feminist laukika interpretations of Andal's sacred pāsuram-s are sorely lacking in authority and knowledge of Sri Vaishnava philosophy, and even Tamizh. https://t.co/YAsL6m8oN9
"Altruism is only the sublimest form of selfishness." - Sri Aurobindo. Recent developments in the theory of co-operation confirm this. @DrMANowak @AuroSociety @integralyog @searchforlight #ThursdayThoughts
The Mother has left behind hundreds of pages on Science of Living and allied themes like education and self-management. Everyone should read them; no better grounding to become a better human being in an increasingly complex and confusing world. Om #SriAurobindo and #MirraAlfassa
Experts are referred to when dealing with technical subjects. Qualified persons are respected for their specialisation. #SriAurobindo is an undisputed authority on the philosophy of Yoga who holds distinct opinion than modern psychology. Yet, he is ignored when Yoga is discussed.
Marketime: Religious animosity is normal but sublimation is the political task https://t.co/sOhC7VmDOg @NathTusar
This mire must harbour the orchid and the rose,
From her blind unwilling substance must emerge
A beauty that belongs to happier spheres.
- Sri Aurobindo ("SAVITRI")
