Hi All,
I (synchronistically?) just came across the following quote, where Sri
Aurobindo and the Mother present their aims and method of their new
journal *Arya.* They were written on the cover page of the first
edition, which appeared on Sri Aurobindo's birthday, 15 August 1914.
"1) The systematic study of the highest problems of existence.
"2) The formation of a vast synthesis of knowledge, harmonising the
diverse religious traditions of humanity, occidental as well as
oriental.
"Its method will be that of realism, at once rational and
transcendental, a realism consisting in the unification of intellectual
and scientific disciplines with those of intuitive experience."
I'd like to see us adopt a similar method in this forum. -- What do you think?
Namaste,
~ ron
