Huta's letter to The Mother in 1965 inspired the creation of Matrimandir; it was to Huta that The Mother first explained Her concept of Auroville's town-plan.
The Mother : Contact Auroville
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'.
THEME/S
A letter dated 17.6.74 came from Mr. M.J. Patel of Japan:
Hutaben,
I was delighted to have received your letter since long together with the book on Matrimandir containing originals of Mother's letters to you in connection with your role in it. All know very well that you are a fondled child of Mother and are closely following Her footsteps and I can see you busy with your brush and typewriter enjoying work always to manifest the Truth Consciousness under the guiding force of Mother.
I immediately went through it whole with enthusiasm and remembered your letter informing me that you were to be in charge of keys and it was years before. When are you going to have your house there and take the charge? It means I like to know the progress of Matrimandir and Auroville. Your pictures on the Spirit of Auroville and the Inner Life are quite symbolic. We are now in the manifesting stage of our sadhana and it remains to be seen how far matter associated with human environment can embody the spiritual dynamics in form and how far we are able to consciously manipulate its movements and enjoy the native delight of the Divine and give body to Savitri's lines quoted by you in this context.
In Mother's Light
Sincerely yours,
M.J. Patel
