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. |
