A4A YEAR 8 BEGINS

“Acres for Auroville ” (A4A) is embarking on its 8th year at the service of a unified and harmonious land base for Auroville. Looking back on the seven years of collective action since A4A’s launch on 15th August 2014, we feel both happiness and a sense of utility.

A4A FLIER – 15TH AUGUST 2021

Sri Aurobindo’s vision of human unity in diversity is the animating concept and force behind The Mother’s creation of Auroville. His inspiring words ring true, and today as even more essential than before. Dr. Jayanti Ravi, the new Secretary of the Auroville Foundation, has described Auroville as a “unique experiment” that can serve as “a beacon for the entire world”” As we start A4A’s Year 8, we re-dedicate ourselves to serving this vision. Auroville’s designated physical body is the material base for the City of Dawn! … Version française en pdf. … பிடிஎஃப்பில் தமிழ்ப் பதிப்பு

LFAU LETTER – 15TH AUGUST 2021

Despite all circumstance to the contrary, something within knows that life is moving towards Light and Felicity. This view is equally true for the survival and growth of Auroville over its 5 decades. Building a new and visionary city in hard circumstances requires faith. The growth of faith happens when you see the progress resulting from collective effort. As we enter the threshold of Sri Aurobindo’s 150th anniversary, let us re-commit ourselves to the goal we have chosen – the creation of a unique and inspiring universal town. … Version française en pdf. … பிடிஎஃப்பில் தமிழ்ப் பதிப்பு

MORE NEW LAND

Exclusively funded by your donations to the « Acres for Auroville » land campaign, Auroville has added another 2.39 farming acres to its designated Master Plan area. This new land has joined Kalpavruksha Farm, consolidating more of this vital Greenbelt area, and strengthening Auroville’s food production abilities, bio-diversity and ongoing greenwork. We sincerely thank all of the donors whose generosity has made this new purchase possible!

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.
