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'.

I sent a letter to the Auroville Council as follows:

To The Members of Auroville Council

22.7.87

My dear brothers and sisters,

Greetings to all.

Although I am not a member of the Council, I take this opportunity to express my feeling regarding the Mother's Vision of the Matrimandir. She repeatedly said to many people that if the Matrimandir would be materialized, the world's problems would be solved—the course of the world would be changed. She told me that the Supreme Truth and the Supreme Love would manifest in the inner chamber.

I feel that we must not limit ourselves to the Ashram and Auroville alone, but think of the whole world, where the Supreme Force is also active. Whoever is sincere, open and receptive, the Force makes Its instrument.

I request you all—let us get together and work for the Divine in order to fulfil Her Dream.

All of us know how practical and precise the Mother was. She believed in the beauty of simplicity.

I am perfectly aware that the Mother said so many things to so many people —each a shade different from the other—as regards the Matrimandir. Nevertheless all are true and genuine. But according to time, situation and circumstances we may try our best to work out everything by Her Grace. She has given us many ways and means to do so. The only thing we need is what the Mother has written:

To establish at Auroville the harmonious atmosphere which, by definition, ought to reign there, the first step is for each one to watch within himself whatever is the cause of friction and misunderstanding. For these causes are always on both sides and each one's endeavour should be to efface them in himself first before demanding anything from others.

All of us have gone through so many confusions and controversies after the Mother's passing. I don't think we wish to go through yet another phase of crisis and setbacks. However, I request you all: Let us collaborate harmoniously and in unity to accomplish the Mother's Vision and Will. It is now high time we came to some definite programme for all-round understanding and co-operation.

Allow me to quote the Lord Buddha:

A man that stands alone, having decided to obey the Truth, may be weak and slip back into his old ways. Therefore stand ye together, assist one another, and strengthen one another's efforts.

I always have good will towards everybody and pray for the whole of humanity. We all are pearls set in one string—the string is the Mother. I feel that it is our duty to carry out Her wish of the New World. There is no difference between the Ashram and Auroville. For She has written:

The Ashram is the central consciousness. Auroville is one of the outward expressions. In both places equally the work is done for the Divine.

I remember M. André to have informed me more than once that when the Mother was on Her deathbed She lost all interest except in the Matrimandir. When She left Her body at 7.25 p.m., at that very moment the fourth pillar of Mahakali was just completed. It was not a coincidence—it was intentional from the spiritual and occult point of view.

I sincerely wish that the Mother's Will be carried out. Now it is high time we expedited Her Will, forgetting all the past reactions, and did something concretely to bring about the Supreme's Victory in all of us, as well as upon the Earth. We all came upon the earth to accomplish the mission the Divine has entrusted to us.

The Mother wrote to me on 6th November, 1955:

No child of mine can be a zero; in fact, each one of my children has his or her place and special mission to fulfil. I love them all equally and do for each one what is truly needed for his or her welfare and progress without any preference or partiality.
