Defending Sri Aurobindo's Legacy: Rajiv Malhotra & Manogna Sastry on Ken Wilber's Appropriation

In this video, the authors of The Battle for Consciousness Theory discuss the major contributions that Swami Vivekananda and Sri Aurobindo made to the global consciousness movement in the 21st century. Highlighting how the two stalwart gurus introduced to the West the uniquely dharmic philosophy of evolution, the authors Rajiv Malhotra and Manogna Sastry discuss how the institutions which were founded to propagate the works of these two luminaries failed to defend their gurus' works from being appropriated and distorted. They highlight how the book Battle for Consciousness Theory defends Sri Aurobindo's seminal models in individual and collective consciousness from Ken Wilber's co-opting and discuss the larger issues of digestion currently dominating Indology.
