Acres for Auroville

Greetings & Update from A4A in this Special Month of April!

April is a special month as the creation of Auroville has its roots in two significant events – the arrival of Sri Aurobindo to Pondicherry in 1910, and the definitive arrival of The Mother in 1920 to work by his side. Our A4A Flier and LFAU Letter are dedicated to these evolutionary events.

A4A FLIER – 24th APRIL 2021

On 24th April 1920, The Mother returned to India definitively to work with Sri Aurobindo on a new manifestation for the Earth consciousness.
This landmark event was preceded by their first meeting six years earlier in March 1914. Her diary entries from that momentous week give a glimpse of her outlook and goals, and were at the basis of the creation in 1968 of Auroville, the City of Dawn. … Version française en pdf. … பிடிஎஃப்பில் தமிழ்ப் பதிப்பு

The Work of Auroville’s Land Board – Part 1 :

Few people realize the enormity of the work of Auroville’s Land Board. A small team of Aurovilians has the mandate for leading, organizing, and managing all of Auroville’s land protection and land purchase actions, supported by several teams working in various areas. In recognition of this immense responsibility, we are dedicating a series of articles to their work. In this first installment, we focus on what the Land Board’s mandate involves, as well as the considerable achievements made in the past 3 years.
