The founding force behind Auroville

This was all surprising to me because when I took world history in high school there is no mention of India when talking about Greece and Rome. In fact outside of hearing about such things as the Upanishads, I can’t rightly recall having much exposure at all about India’s history. Shameful, really.
We also visited the Sri Aurobindo Ashram. It is a simple place but profound is the sight of so many people meditating around, kneeling at and lovingly tending to the final resting place of ‘The Mother’. Perhaps you will recall the French woman mentioned in an earlier post. She also happened to be the founding force behind Auroville. posted by A Pink American 8:45 PM
