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 recall an incident about gossip-mongers.
In 1966, Alice, my American friend who is PhD in Art, used to teach painting in Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education. She often came to my house to know how the Mother taught me Savitri paintings and other visionary paintings, how to use various colours, etc., etc.
One afternoon she came and informed me that jealous and interested people had told her nasty and unpleasant things about me and advised her not to be friendly with me, because I was unfaithful to the Mother and I was an unrefined person, etc., etc.
I listened to her quietly and said:
Alice, look, I do not know anything about myself—neither good nor bad. It would be best if you seek the Mother's opinion in this regard.
