PM Modi said Sri Aurobindo's philosophy of 'Revolution' and 'Evolution' are of key importance and should be emphasized as part of the commemoration. 

 

New Delhi: It is the responsibility of India as a spiritual leader to contribute in terms of spirituality to nations across the globe, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday (December 24).

PM Modi said this today while chairing the first meeting of the High-Level Committee (HLC), which has been constituted to commemorate the 150th Birth Anniversary of Sri Aurobindo in a befitting manner. The notification of HLC was issued on December 20, 2021. The Committee comprises 53 members from various walks of life.

Secretary (Culture), Govind Mohan, gave a presentation on the Road Map to celebrate the commemoration and sought the advice of the esteemed members for celebrating the 150th anniversary of Sri Aurobindo in a befitting manner.

Speaking on occasion, the Prime Minister expressed his gratitude to the esteemed members for their valuable thoughts and suggestions on Sri Aurobindo's commemoration. The Prime Minister said that the two aspects of Sri Aurobindo's philosophy of 'Revolution' and 'Evolution' are of key importance and should be emphasized as part of the commemoration.   

"The youth should be encouraged towards the concept of greatness as embodied in the philosophy of Nar to Narayan to create a MahaManav as propounded by Sri Aurobindo," he added.

The Prime Minister further said that it is the responsibility of India as a spiritual leader of the world to contribute in terms of spiritualism to nations across the globe. He suggested that 150 universities across the country should be involved in writing papers on different aspects of Sri Aurobindo's life and philosophy and the 150 papers to be published on occasion.

The Prime Minister proposed to launch the commemoration celebrations of Sri Aurobindo from Puducherry, coinciding with the celebration of National Youth Day. This will encourage the youth to visit Puducherry and learn about his life and teachings, where Sri Aurobindo spent his life from 1910 to 1950.

The Prime Minister fondly recalled his discussions and deliberations as Gujarat Chief Minister with Shri Kireet Joshi, a disciple of Sri Aurobindo. He said that these discussions enriched him with the thoughts of Sri Aurobindo, which were deeply reflected when he was working on preparing the National Education Policy.

The Prime Minister stated that the literature of Sri Kireet Joshi on Sri Aurobindo should be disseminated widely across the world.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah profusely thanked the participants for their valuable suggestions and time and closed the meeting.
Today's meeting of HLC was held in a hybrid mode. Sixteen distinguished members were present physically, and 22 members participated through Video Conference (VC). The Home Minister Amit Shah welcomed the distinguished participants. Members gave their suggestions at the meeting. All the members expressed the opinion that the concept of integral education of Sri Aurobindo should be a part of the New Education Policy and should be included in the curriculum at the college and university levels.
