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
On 19.6.67 I was invited to the sector named "Promesse". I did not go. The Mother was informed about it. She wrote:
Here is the declaration that has been read yesterday at "Promesse". I am sending it to you, so that you may know that things are not as you have been told they are.
The First Condition to Live In Auroville
To be convinced of the essential unity of mankind and the will to collaborate for the material realisation of this unity.
The Mother, Words of the Mother - I: Aims and Principles
The title of the Mother's message for "Promesse" was slightly altered later on. Amal Kiran wrote to the Mother about it, asking, "instead of 'to live' may I put `for living'? I feel that this would satisfy English idiom better."
The Mother answered:
“Certainly yes—for living' is much more correct."
