We also visited Auroville, a rather creepy commune, where some 2000 people live in a fashion layed out by Sri Aurobindo and Mother, two beloved teachers of international repute. It's very cultish with weird rituals and education systems that do not seem quite up to snuff. They say theyre waiting for the coming of a new human species on earth. The settlement was sadly built in the shape of a galaxy (what board of directors sat around and said "OOOH! Shaped like a galaxy, great idea Pierre. Let's go with galaxy shape) I mean come on people, I am a physics major and even I acknowledge that that is a silly idea. I wandered into the residential area and spoke with a French guy who has a house there. Link Leave a comment Add to Memories Feb. 22nd, 2007 11:59 am
