Part I The Earliest Descriptions

The "idea" of Auroville was launched in 1964. On the night of 19.6.65, Huta had a vision. The next morning she expressed to the Mother in detail what she had seen and felt. Her ardent aspiration was that the Mother should have Her house in Auroville, because without the Spirit of Auroville the whole town would be lifeless. The Mother responded: 20.6.65 "Huta my dear little child. You have indeed a very sweet soul who makes very sweet projects and beautiful dreams - all that is passed on directly to the Lord who will show us clearly what is His decision. Meanwhile, it is not to Nava that I shall show the letter but to the architect of Auroville when he arrives and see with him the way of giving a concrete realization to the beautiful plans. But I must warn you to be patient because all that may take more time that you expect. However there is also a joy in waiting, the joy of expectation. With all my love."
