2. A DREAM BY THE MOTHER
There should be somewhere on earth a place which no nation could claim as its own, where all human beings of
goodwill who have a sincere aspiration could live freely as citizens of the world and obey one single authority, that of
the supreme truth; a place of peace, concord and harmony where all the fighting instincts of man would be used
exclusively to conquer the causes of his sufferings and miseries, to surmount his weaknesses and ignorance, to
triumph over his limitations and incapacities; a place where the needs of the spirit and the concern for progress would
take precedence over the satisfaction of desires and passions, the search for pleasure and material enjoyment. In this
place, children would be able to grow and develop integrally without losing contact with their souls; education would
be given not for passing examinations or obtaining certificates and posts but to enrich existing faculties and bring forth
new ones. In this place, titles and positions would be replaced by opportunities to serve and organise; the bodily needs
of each one would be equally provided for, and intellectual, moral, and spiritual superiority would be expressed in the
general organisation not by an increase in the pleasures and powers of life but by increased duties and responsibilities.
Beauty in all its artistic forms, painting, sculpture, music, literature, would be equally accessible to all; the ability to
share in the joy it brings would be limited only by the capacities of each one and not by social or financial position.
For in this ideal place money would no longer be the sovereign lord; individual worth would have a far greater
importance than that of material wealth and social standing. There, work would not be a way to earn one's living but a
way to express oneself and to develop one's capacities and possibilities while being of service to the community as a
whole, which, for its own part, would provide for each individual's subsistence and sphere of action. In short, it would
be a place where human relationships, which are normally based almost exclusively on competition and strife, would
be replaced by relationships of emulation in doing well, of collaboration and real brotherhood.
The earth is certainly not ready to realise such an ideal, for mankind does not yet possess sufficient knowledge to
understand and adopt it nor the conscious force that is indispensable in order to execute it; that is why I call it a dream.
And yet this dream is in the course of becoming a reality; that is what we are striving for in Sri Aurobindo's Ashram,
on a very small scale, in proportion to our limited means. The realisation is certainly far from perfect, but it is
progressive; little by little we are advancing towards our goal which we hope we may one day be able to present to the
world as a practical and effective way to emerge from the present chaos, to be born into a new life that is more
harmonious and true.

3. AUROVILLE CHARTER
1) Auroville belongs to nobody in particular. Auroville belongs to humanity as a whole. But to live in Auroville one
must be the willing servitor of the Divine Consciousness.
2) Auroville will be the place of an unending education, of constant progress, and a youth that never ages.
3) Auroville wants to be the bridge between the past and the future. Taking advantage of all discoveries from
without and from within, Auroville will boldly spring towards future realisations.
4) Auroville will be a site of material and spiritual researches for a living embodiment of an actual human unity.
The Mother, February 28,1968

4. TO BE A TRUE AUROVILIAN
Conditions to live in Auroville
1) The first necessity is the inner discovery in order to know what one truly is behind social, moral, cultural,
racial and hereditary appearances. At the centre there is a being free, vast and knowing, who awaits our discovery and
who ought to become the active centre of our being and our life in Auroville.
2) One lives in Auroville in order to be free from moral and social conventions; but this freedom must not be a
new slavery to the ego, to its desires and ambitions.
The fulfilment of one's desires bars the way to the inner discovery which can only be achieved in the peace and
transparency of perfect disinterestedness.
3) The Aurovilian should lose the sense of personal possession. For our passage in the material world, what is
indispensable to our life and to our action is put at our disposal according to the place we must occupy.
The more we are consciously in contact with our inner being, the more are the exact means given to us.
4) Work, even manual work, is something indispensable for the inner discovery. If one does not work, if one

does not put his consciousness into matter, the latter will never develop. To let the consciousness organise a bit of
matter by means of one's body is very good. To establish order around oneself helps to bring order within oneself.
One should organise one's life not according to outer and artificial rules, but according to an organised inner
consciousness, for if one lets life go on without subjecting it to the control of the higher consciousness, it becomes
fickle and inexpressive. It is to waste one's time in the sense that matter remains without any conscious utilisation.
5) The whole earth must prepare itself for the advent of the new species, and Auroville wants to work
consciously to hasten this advent.
6) Little by little it will be revealed to us what this new species must be, and meanwhile the best course is to
consecrate oneself entirely to the Divine.

5. Auroville is an attempt towards world peace, friendship, fraternity, unity.

II. ON ORGANIZATION
1. I wrote a small article in 'Prabartak' called "About Society" in which I spoke about the Sangha or community. I do
not want a community based on division. I want a community based upon the Spirit and giving form to the unity of the
Spirit. (...)
You will perhaps ask, "What is the need of a sangha? Let me be free and fill every vessel. Let all become One, let all
take place within that vast unity." All this is true, but it is only one side of the truth. Our business is not with the
formless Spirit only; we have to direct life as well. Without shape and form, life has no effective movement. It is the
Termless that has taken form, and that assumption of name and form is not a caprice of Maya. The positive necessity
of form has brought about the assumption of form. We do not want to exclude any of the world's activities. Politics,
trade, social organisation, poetry, art, literature—all will remain. But all will be given a new life, a new form.
Sri Aurobindo, Writings In Bengali, A Letter of Sri Aurobindo to His Brother, p. 364
2. In contrast to this, Sri Aurobindo tells us that a true community—what he terms a gnostic or supramental
community—can be based only upon the INNER REALIZATION of each one of its members, each realizing his real,
concrete oneness and identity with all the other members of the community; that is, each one should not feel himself a
member connected to all the others in an arbitrary way, but that all are one within himself. For each one, the others
should be as much himself as his own body — not in a mental and artificial way, but through a fact of consciousness,
by an inner realization.
This means that before hoping to realize such a gnostic collectivity, each one must first of all become (or at least start
to become) a gnostic being.
The Mother, July 3, 1957
3. A spiritualised society can alone bring about a reign of individual harmony and communal happiness; or, in words
which, though liable to abuse by the reason and the passions, are still the most expressive we can find, a new kind of
theocracy, the kingdom of God upon earth, a theocracy which shall be the government of mankind by the Divine in
the hearts and minds of men.
Sri Aurobindo, The Human cycle
4. A supramental or gnostic race of beings would not be a race made according to a single type, moulded in a single
fixed pattern; for the law of the supermind is unity fulfilled in diversity, and therefore there would be an infinite
diversity in the manifestation of the gnostic consciousness although that consciousness would still be one in its basis,
in its constitution, in its all revealing and all-uniting order.
Sri Aurobindo, CWSA, The Life Divine, The Gnostic Being
5. The gain of democracy is the security of the individual's life, liberty and goods from the caprices of the tyrant one
or the selfish few; its evil is the decline of greatness in humanity.
Sri Aurobindo
6. I think democracy... Already at the age of ten, I found democracy to be idiotic (there, in France), but anyway... It's
idiotic there, in France (but that doesn't matter), but at any rate I don't think democracy is AT ALL, at all an

Truth is a totality, not an exclusion. Future man will not be an intellectual.
The rules of life within the city should comply with those of the country.

14. If there is no representative of the supreme Consciousness (which can happen, of course), if there isn’t any, we
could perhaps (this would be worth trying) replace him with the government by a small number – we would have to
choose between four and eight, something like that: four, seven or eight – a small number having an intuitive
intelligence. “Intuitive” is more important than “intelligence”: they should have an intuition that manifests
intellectually. (From a practical standpoint it would have some drawbacks, but it might be nearer the truth than the
lowest rung: socialism or communism.) All the intermediaries have proved incompetent: theocracy, aristocracy,
democracy, plutocracy – all that is a complete failure. The other one too is now giving proof of its failure, the
government of ... what can we call it? Democracy? (But democracy always implies the idea of educated, rich people.)
That has given proof of its complete incompetence.
The Mother, Mother’s Agenda, April 10, 1968
15. The conditions to organize – to be an organizer (it’s not “to govern,” it’s to organize) – the conditions to be an
organizer should be these: no more desires, no more preferences, no more attractions, no more repulsions – a perfect
equality for all things. Sincerity, of course, but that goes without saying: wherever insincerity enters, poison enters at
the same time.
And then, only those who are themselves in that condition can discern whether another is in it or not.
At present, all human organizations are based on: the visible fact (which is a falsehood), public opinion (another
falsehood), and moral sense, which is a third falsehood! (Mother laughs) So...
The Mother, Mother's Agenda, March 25, 1970
16. The problem is always the same: those given the responsibility should be people with a... universal
consciousness, of course, otherwise... Wherever there is a personal consciousness, it means someone incapable of
governing – we can see how governments are, it’s frightful! (later...)
In their ordinary consciousness, human beings cannot tolerate any authority, however legitimate, if it is exercised over
them by somebody whom they believe to be on the same level as themselves.
On the other hand, for human authority to be legitimately exercised over others, it must be enlightened, impartial and
unegoistic to the extent that nobody can reasonably challenge its value.
He only who has a perfect sense of true justice can claim the right to be obeyed.
When I say that the “wise” should govern the world, I am not taking a political point of view but a spiritual one.
The various forms of government can stay as they are; that is only of secondary importance. But whatever the social
status of the men in power, they should receive their inspiration from those who have realised the Truth and have no
other will than that of the Supreme.
