Auroville is the progressive creation of a place “where all human beings of goodwill who have a sincere aspiration could live freely as citizens of the world”. The Mother observed that “the earth is certainly not ready to realize such an ideal.“ Yet, she said, “this dream is on the way of becoming a reality.” For what we do have is aspiration – individual and collective – with its power to overcome all opposition and difficulties.

Today, 102 years ago, a vastly significant event took place from the perspective of the creation of a new world, and a new India – the Mother’s permanent return to Pondicherry. A line from Savitri sums it up: “The united two begun a greater age.” The reference, of course, is to the collaboration between the Mother and Sri Aurobindo that followed her final arrival and went on for the next 30 years.

Sri Aurobindo predicted that India would play a key role for humanity’s spiritual future – and that a spiritual future
would be the only way forward. In this special “birthday month” of February, as we gather together in aspiration,
the ancient invocations continue to inspire us in our progress towards a more luminous future. Version française en pdf … பிடிஎஃப்பில் தமிழ்ப் பதிப்பு

Auroville is meant to develop into and emerge as a broad, unique, futuristic, universal township drawing light and inspiration from Sri Aurobindo’s evolutionary vision. It is a double-edged undertaking – with work to be done in the world, in matter – and with work to be done in consciousness, one’s own and the collectivity’s. In this year celebrating Sri Aurobindo’s 150th birth anniversary, we look at Auroville’s relevance to the realisation of the future he envisioned.

Sri Aurobindo’s ideals have inspired and guided the lives of so many people from all around the world – providing a vision of human possibility and a context for understanding the evolutionary changes and upheavals we are witnessing. More than anything, his vision and the Mother’s work provide a compass towards the future for us all. “The City at the service of Truth”, Auroville is a concrete stepping stone for creating new models for the future.

Sri Aurobindo’s vision and wisdom inspires us towards new heights of human possibility and hope. And they are the energy behind the creation of the Auroville International Township – the site for the foundations of this great collective ideal and practical new effort.
