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
One more message from the Mother about India:
India has or rather had the knowledge of the Spirit, but she neglected matter and suffered for it. The West has knowledge of matter but rejected the Spirit and suffers badly for it. An integral education which could, with some variations, be adopted to all nations of the world, must bring back the legitimate authority of the Spirit over a matter fully developed and utilised.
Blessings.
The Mother, Words of the Mother - I: India
I was very much impressed to read in The Illustrated Weekly of India, January 26, 1964, The State of the Nation. There were questions by the Editor and the Mother's answers for which she won the first prize!
"If you were asked to sum up, just in one sentence, your vision of India, what would be your answer?
India's true destiny is to be the Guru of the world.
Similarly, if you were asked to comment on the reality as you see it, how would you do so in one sentence?
The present reality is a big falsehood—hiding an eternal truth.
What, according to you, are the three main barriers that stand between the vision and the reality?
(a) Ignorance; (b) fear; (c) falsehood.
Are you satisfied with the over-all progress India has made since Independence?
No.
What is our most outstanding achievement in recent times? Why do you consider it so important?
Waking up of the yearning for Truth. Because without truth there is no real liberty.
Likewise, can you name our saddest failure? On what grounds do you regard it as so tragic?
Insincerity. Because insincerity leads to ruin.
Mother has explained regarding diplomacy:
If diplomacy could become the instrument of the Truth and Divine Grace, instead of being based on duplicity and falsehood, a big step would be taken towards human unity and harmony.
