JYOTI - AN ONLINE JOURNAL

The online journal Jyoti was started in 2000 as an attempt to carry cultural articles and information related to the teaching of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother and the collective life of the Sri Aurobindo Center of Los Angeles, also known as The East-West Cultural Center.

The online journal took its name both from the founder of the Center, Jyotipriya and from the essential meaning of the name, which is LIGHT.

At present, the editor of Jyoti is no longer connected with the Los Angeles Center and the journal in its present incarnation has therefore divested itself of its Center-specific content. Moreover, the journal will henceforth appear within the web portal SCIY. Here, Jyoti will continue in a new form - that of a continuously expanding magazine. SCIY provides enhanced opportunities for extended dialogs around its Articles through an organized structure of Comments. It is thus hoped that entries in Jyoti will become occassions for interaction and expansion of knowledge among the community of its readers.

Subscribers to Jyoti will receive automatic notifications for every new Article or Comment posted in the journal. A link will take them to the post. Below the post, they will see a space for comments. To add a comment, one will need an username and a password. By default, all jyotilist members have been granted the username jyotilist (all lower case) and the password jyoti. A reader is encouraged to enter into the different areas of Jyoti as well as of its parents, SCIY. It is hoped that once familiar, readers will choose to subscribe themselves individually to the SCIY web-portal and will not need the generic jyotilist access.

The subcategories for Jyoti, will be found in the Categories Tree on the left margin, under 'Jyoti' and can be opened and read by clicking on them or on the links below. These subcategories, as before, are:
