    A glimpse of Auroville an intentional township in the South of India based on the ideals of Sri Aurobindo and his spiritual companion the Mother. This film explores the aspects of renewable energy, education, health, art, economy and decision making and ending with bioregion and international effect.
    Already in 1954 the Mother had spelled out an alternative formula for a new way to live and to be. She described a new society: balanced, just, harmonious and dynamic. At the time she saw that "the earth is not ready to realise such an ideal" and therefore called it ‘A Dream’. The fact that Auroville steadily grows, and its residents continue to carry this same ideal and vision in their hearts and minds, gives hope. The challenges are enormous and daring. When this dream touches you, don’t hesitate to join us.
    A Dream
    There should be somewhere on earth a place which no nation could claim as its own, where all human beings of goodwill who have a sincere aspiration could live freely as citizens of the world and obey one single authority, that of the supreme Truth; a place of peace, concord and harmony where all the fighting instincts of man would be used exclusively to conquer the causes of his sufferings and miseries, to surmount his weaknesses and ignorance, to triumph over his limitations and incapacities; a place where the needs of the spirit and the concern for progress would take precedence over the satisfaction of desires and passions, the search for pleasure and material enjoyment.
    In this place, children would be able to grow and develop integrally without losing contact with their souls; education would be given not for passing examinations or obtaining certificates and posts but to enrich existing faculties and bring forth new ones. In this place, titles and positions would be replaced by opportunities to serve and organise; the bodily needs of each one would be equally provided for, and intellectual, moral and spiritual superiority would be expressed in the general organisation not by an increase in the pleasures and powers of life but by increased duties and responsibilities.
    Beauty in all its artistic forms, painting, sculpture, music, literature, would be equally accessible to all; the ability to share in the joy it brings would be limited only by the capacities of each one and not by social or financial position.
    For in this ideal place money would no longer be the sovereign lord; individual worth would have a far greater importance than that of material wealth and social standing. There, work would not be a way to earn one’s living but a way to express oneself and to develop one’s capacities and possibilities while being of service to the community as a whole, which, for its own part, would provide for each individual’s subsistence and sphere of action.
    In short, it would be a place where human relationships, which are normally based almost exclusively on competition and strife, would be replaced by relationships of emulation in doing well, of collaboration and real brotherhood.
    The earth is certainly not ready to realize such an ideal, for mankind does not yet possess the necessary knowledge to understand and accept it nor the indispensable conscious force to execute it. That is why I call it a dream. Yet, this dream is on the way of becoming a reality. That is exactly what we are doing on a small scale, in proportion to our modest means. The achievement is indeed far from being perfect, it is progressive; little by little we advance towards our goal, which, we hope, one day we shall be able to hold before the world as a practical and effective means of coming out of the present chaos in order to be born into a more true, more harmonious new life.

    A true city of light and a community of love. After 5 years at the Findhorn Spiritual community in Northern Scotland I learn to appreciate what it takes for people to live in community. Auroville is making it work. My wife and i enjoyed our visit. We plan to go back and stay longer.

    I think, they have beatiful life without any separations. However I'd prefer a colorful life with different religions, policy, nations, traditions, friendship, wars, agreeing and disagreeing, good and bad. I love my present life

    How do you earn a living in Auroville?
    How is a plot of land or a house allocated to someone wishing to live in Auroville?
    If do not have any crop yet and is not self sufficient, how do you eat?

      @harrywelin3060 3 роки тому

      Are you braindead, why the hell would anybody stay away from modern medicine? Theres a reason for the life capacity today being much higher then before. Before modern medicine you could easily die from a little fever. Modern medicin and the pharmacutical industry are not the same thing!

    This "dream" is for a select few that abides by this "religious" teachings...there is no god...there is no humanly constructed paradise...it is all a sham ...much like the community in Oregon in the 1970s ...Rajneeshpuram...which failed miserably...
