Auroville community online :: 84 visitors today

Thanks for hosting the Vanavers

Many thanks to Jill, Swar, Aurelio, Prakash and the team at CRIPA including Suresh, Ruben and Jean-Christophe. Appreciation also to Heinrich for making a cello available and Nuriya for her guitar. Also thanks to Dhanya and Susan, Kamala and also Shankar! I hope more artists from Woodstock and the Hudson Valley will make it to Auroville in the coming years along with the return of Bill, Livia and Miranda who so very much enjoyed their visit.

 

The key to the future of the world is finding the optimistic stories and letting them be known.

Thank you to the community

A big thank you to the community for supporting the Water Maintenance Service in the recent vote. They have struggled and suffered for a long time and were given a bad name. It was a very difficult time for them and many groups were involved, but now it is clear that the truth has been acknowledged. They are a worthy and valuable service in Auroville and deserve better. We hope that the future will be happy and bright without fights of this kind.

Thankyou Amy, Inge, Selvam and Slava!

Thank you to our librarians

This is to express my gratitude & appreciation for our beautiful, well-stocked library, and especially for the always warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere! Many thanks, Catherine and team!

Thank you volunteers

Thank you to all who volunteer for minutes, weeks, years and decades. Its your spirit of volunteering, of giving once or continuously which builds Auroville.

The volume of volunteering far exceeds the "financial budget". If measurable it would be at least 5 or 10 times the amount of the money economy.

 

Do you know that Auroorchard is converting to organic ?

We are delighted to share that one year ago Auroorchard began the process of organic conversion, and stopped using any chemical input. Among countless other steps, we created an experimental free range for 100 hens in October of 2013. Since then, they now can scratch the ground, peck the grass and catch insects ... their health condition has improved.

Thank you dance team ("Shyaam", an evening with Krishna)

It’s quite a while since I saw a programme of such a good standard at Sri Aurobindo Auditorium.  To start with, I am so proud of all the artists simply because they belong to Auroville. Usually its Krishna’s role to capture hearts but Kansha! you seriously captured my heart. From such a small body you emitted such powerful expressions of a king. Your walk, your royal attitude… my god…until you appeared as Radha i couldnt bring your original face to my mind. you did complete justice to your role. Vasudheva!

Thank you Auroville radio

Thank you Auroville radio for the work you do...esp enjoyed listening to Sanjeev Sanyal as i couldn't go to the talk myself...

Thank you Very Much, Alain Grandcolas

Whenever I happened to pass through tri-junction after the Deepanam School (the one that turns towards the Centre Guest House and also goes straight to Bharat Nivas), I would notice that some 20 meters of the road opened onto a harmful ditch, especially for novice visitors. It was like that for long.  “There should be a parapet covering here” - I would tell myself.
