Auroville

Founded in 1968 in Tamil Nadu, South India, in a deserted area, Auroville is an international cultural township. Its vocation is to offer an environment to work out solutions to the present world critical issues. Solutions not only material but primarily inspired by a radical change of consciousness.

“Auroville will be the place of an unending education, of constant progress, and a youth that never ages.” This is an extract of the Charter of Auroville and, indeed, over the years it has become an outstanding place of research and education; a human laboratory where its present 3200 inhabitants have developed an amazing range of activities in all kinds of fields.

Auroville: a place of an unending education

The best way to participate and experience Auroville is to take up a voluntary mission, get involved in a project: it will reveal to you as a learning experience!

 

“Auroville belongs to nobody in particular. Auroville belongs to humanity as a whole. But, to live in Auroville, one must be a willing servitor of the divine consciousness.”
