Myself was born Hindu Studied in a school that was named after Sri Aurobindo.... We had some classes on his teachings at school.... But in school we usually spent our time ridiculing him.... But 4-5 years after passing out after some level of maturity had been achieved on my part I once again was drawn back to the works of Sri Aurobindo... Now I can say Karl Marx and Sri Aurobindo have been the main influences in my life. Sri Aurobindo keeps talking about how materialism and spiritualism will meet... That is what I am looking forward to in the coming decades.... BTW - I like both cats and dogs
"The spirit shall look out through matter's gaze And matter shall reveal the Spirit's face" Sri Aurobindo in 'Savitri'.
