Ram Swarup - Influences and Opinions

Influences and Opinions

Some of his early influences were Aldous Huxley and George Bernard Shaw.

In his later life, Ram Swarup used to meditate for many hours. Swarup was influenced by Sri Aurobindo, whom he held to be the greatest exponent of the Vedic vision in our times.

Sita Ram Goel described Swarup as a person who "had no use for any conventional morality or code of manners and could see clearly how they were mostly used to put the other fellow in the wrong."

Famous quotes containing the words influences and/or opinions:

    Nothing changes more constantly than the past; for the past that influences our lives does not consist of what actually happened, but of what men believe happened.
    Gerald W. Johnson (1890–1980)

    Of the opinions of philosophy I most gladly embrace those that are most solid, that is to say, most human and most our own; my opinions, in conformity with my conduct, are low and humble.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
