Auroville is a place in south India where, for 38 years now, an
increasing number of people from all over the world have been quietly
and painstakingly working on the construction of a new township, a new
way of living, a new way of being. Something is being attempted here
for the benefit of all.
"Man is a transitional being, he is not
final. Evolution is not finished; reason is not the last word nor the
reasoning animal the supreme figure of Nature," observes Sri Aurobindo.
"There is something that he is not yet which he has to be; he is
reaching always towards the something yet unrealised; his whole life
and nature is a preparation, an endeavour of Nature towards what is
beyond him."
Auroville is to be a major vehicle of this evolutionary thrust and, eventually, a platform for transformation.
