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
I too gave money to Shyamsunder. He gave me the receipt on 21.2.1975, thus:
Received from Huta D. Hindocha the sum of rupees one thousand only, cash, as offering for Matrimandir (lotus).
For Sri Aurobindo Society
Shyamsunder
(Secretary)
When Pourna Prema came back from Paris she met Navajata twice and apprised him of the lotus matter. There was no response. On the contrary, he wrote to Roger that whatever he said was right—the Urn would remain as it was, ac-cording to the Mother's Vision. How untrue!
Here is an apt quotation from Albert Einstein:
Only two things are infinite: the Universe and human stupidity. And I am not sure about the former.
Sri Aurobindo's words are true:
An idiot hour destroys what centuries made.
There was a total objection from Roger Anger to modify the present Urn. The Mother's "Dream" would remain unfulfilled. I felt within me that there was no point in arguing any further.
I wrote to Nolini-da about the money given to Shyamsunder in connection with the lotus.
He answered:
Huta,
I will make an enquiry and let you know about the money matter. I am quite in the dark about it.
With affection and good wishes
Nolinida
I too was in the dark!
I returned 3 gold bangles to Kokilaben and the gold wrist-band to Sharda Vaid of Bombay. I went to Nolini-da and informed him about this. He said nothing about money, or his communication with Shyamsunder.
