Huta had a strong connection with Auroville – a letter of hers to the Mother in 1965 inspired the creation of Matrimandir, the Mother’s Shrine; and it was to Huta that the Mother first explained, with sketches, her concept for the town-plan of Auroville. In 1966 Huta produced the painting which the Mother named ‘The Spirit of Auroville.’ All this is told in her books 'Matrimandir the Mother’s Truth and Love' and 'The Spirit of Auroville'.

Shyamsunder sent a word to Nata. He replied on 4.6.74:

Cher Shyamsunder,

On n' a jamais vendu la terre du Matrimandir.

On a vendu de petits pots en terre cuite et on a fait le cadeau d'une poignee de terre du Matrimandir—pas vendue, en cadeau.

La terre servait pour remplir le pot et tenir debout les batonnets d'encens. Voilà tout mon crime.

Nata

Evidemment avec votre remarque on a suspendu meme les cadeaux.

Here is a translation of Nata's letter:

Dear Shyamsunder,

We have never sold the soil of Matrimandir.

We have sold small earthen pots and we made a gift of a handful of Matrimandir soil. Not sold—as a gift.

The soil served to fill the pot and hold up the incense sticks. This is all my crime.

Nata

Of course, after your remark, we have stopped even the gift.

I went to Senteurs and bought a small pot with the Matrimandir soil in it for Rs. 10. I gave the pot to Shyamsunder and told him that this attitude was not in tune with the Mother's Consciousness. Even if Nata changed the name on the plastic bags, he was still selling the soil. This must be stopped.

And afterwards it was stopped.
