Having said that, I would add that the other site is generous to refer to one Dr Gayatri as "sickly looking Dr Gayatri Satapathy".This should have been avoided.Possibly the adjuctive and language appears somewhat similar to the comments of the self-styled historian PH- regarding physical attributes of Sri Aurobindo.<br /><br />The group who are proclaiming to be wellwishers of the Ashram and Trust ( note that they do not appear to be well wishers or supporters of Sri Aurobindo or The Mother-- in as much as they have not so far shown any sign of protest or objection to the denigration of Sri Aurobindo ) are keen on drumming up support for the Trustees from Sri Aurobindo Society, Auroville and devotees, requiring that all make out to the Enquiry Judge that allegations against Trustees are false and evil.<br /> <br />In their anxiety and desperation, even the main purpose of Sri Aurobindo Society to spread the message of Sri Aurobindo is misinterpreted and devalued to state that <br />"After all Sri Aurobindo Society is the propaganda wing of the Ashram".<br />Perhaps they have unknowingly a taken a leaf out of their own mission to be a propoganda wing for safeguarding the interests of the Trustees!<br /><br />It is time that true and sincere children of The Mother living in Sri Aurobindo Ashram, and as members of Sri Aurobindo Society, Auroville, as well as those who are fortunate to be Her children but who are living physically outside the Ashram precincts, stand up for Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, and not for self aggrandising egos of the (Mis)trustees!For it is THE Hour of God, which would be terrible for the <br />Adversaries to the Divine. sampdashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00428519785676545928noreply@blogger.com
