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
The Mother met me in her living room on 27.7.72. She saw a box of slides of the paintings of Sri Aurobindo's poems. She put the box on her lap, opened it, touched the slides and went into a trance. I felt waves of warmth and coolness in my heart. She opened her eyes and smiled.
I informed her about the last slide show of Sri Aurobindo's poems. I was grateful to her for everything. She held my hands and expressed her happiness and then said:
A few days back I told Roger to build a small house on the island near the Matrimandir. It must be simple: one sitting room, a sleeping room and a bathroom.
