Sri Aurobindo’s Birthday – 15 August 2016

 

“The truth of Sri Aurobindo is a truth of love and light and mercy.  He is good and great and compassionate and Divine. And it is He who will have the final victory.”

-The Mother

Auroville is here to pave the way for the final victory of Sri Aurobindo – in other words, the victory of all that is “good and great and compassionate and Divine”. Hence, an integral, consolidated, unified physical base of Auroville means an integral, consolidated and unified field of action, experimentation, and innovation for establishing all that is “good and great and compassionate and Divine”.

This – an integral, consolidated, unified physical base of Auroville – is the aspiration of Acres for Auroville.  We launched its first phase on 15th August 2014 with a view to raise funds for missing plots in the Matrimandir area and in the International Zone. Thanks to the enthusiastic cooperation of Aurovilians and friends of Auroville, we reached the targeted amount. Hence, on 15th August 2015, we initiated the second phase of the campaign. While keeping the fundraising target as that of the 1st action, we enlarged the scope to all the 4 zones of the City Area – the urban hub envisaged by The Mother that surrounds and dignifies the Matrimandir. We are now happy to announce another encouraging success – this time for Phase 2 – and again thanks to the contributions of Aurovilians and so many loyal friends of Auroville!

August 15, 2016 will mark the commencement of the 3rd phase of the campaign. Following the request of the Auroville Land Board, we have expanded the scope of our action so that besides the City Area, priority plots in the Greenbelt too can be purchased from the funds raised by Acres for Auroville Phase 3.

This past year also saw the birth of GreenAcres – a campaign dedicated exclusively for land in Auroville’s Greenbelt. Together, these two campaigns seek to secure and protect the integral physical base of Auroville for the integral manifestation of a unique universal township on earth. All collaboration is sincerely welcome and appreciated!
