In this session, Renu joined us:

“Auroville would be a very ordinary if it was simply a ‘development project’. I am so grateful for having lived here from it’s beginnings and living the freedom and the daring it took to dream an impossible dream in this unshaded land, a shared understanding of the values it attempted-a pause in the busyness of time and giving room for an inner life and change. To witness the healing of the earth and the creation of so many initiatives through the hard work and goodwill of so many people over time …it is an invisible (and visible) edifice to the Mother. I’m happy to have felt and known all of this.”

Our invitation to participants is to be as honest and led from the heart as possible and to avoid quotes and lectures; rather to share from their own unique experiential journey. We hope through these examples of lived experience to show that our Inner Being is not an out-of-reach abstraction, but is actually very concrete and knowable. And we hope they inspire you, our listeners, to consider and reflect on your own journey.
