AUROVILLE ? A UTOPIA IN THE MAKING

All the problems of the humanity are essentially the problems of harmony ? ?Sri Aurobindo?

It is about developing a new mind set towards the harmonious co-existence of all. Auroville?s quest and experiments for ?Utopia? are aimed at ?Realizing Actual Human Unity?.

Auroville is an International-Intentional Community, located in South India and due to its vision, charter and many integrated and successful experiments in all walks of life, it is considered to be a leading Ecovillage for its holistic development.
