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
In August 1964 the Mother gave the following message to the World Conference of the Sri Aurobindo Society, at which the decision to start the New Township was taken:
The future of the Earth depends on a change of consciousness. The only hope for the future is in a change of man's consciousness and the change is bound to come. But it is left to men to decide if they will collaborate for this change or if it will have to be enforced upon them by the power of crashing circumstances.
So, wake up and collaborate!
The Mother, Words of the Mother - III: Human Unity
Here the Mother's words are quite apt:
A change in human consciousness will make possible the manifestation upon earth of a higher Force, a purer Light, a more total Truth.
The project of the International Township was approved by the Government of India and officially introduced to UNESCO. The project was endorsed and supported by the General Conference of UNESCO in Paris in its sessions from 1967 onwards.
