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 20th February, I met the Mother in the morning for our work. After the work, along with a bouquet of white roses and other white flowers, she gave me separately a flower of a creamish colour—a hibiscus—and said:
Here! take it, this is Auroville.
I was amazed as I came to know for the first time this name for the flower: "Auroville." The same flower she had formerly called:
Godhead: Pure and Perfect, it puts out its force in the world.
