Peace and Auromodel


I should like this whole place to be called “PEACE”, and that peace, actual peace should reign there, not only between the occupants but with the whole of Auroville, present and future.
Dec. 1969

“Peace”. The foremost thing must be Peace. Whatever you do must be by peaceful means.
The second thing necessary is Harmony, not only general harmony but also between the individuals living there. You must begin to look for the harmony in each individual and not dwell on the disharmony. The disharmony exists everywhere but you must reject that and allow only the harmony to enter.
There must be a sense of Order.
Each individual must have a sense of self-discipline, and actually practice it.
PEACE, HARMONY, ORDER, SELF-DISCIPLINE

Q:        What is the purpose of life in Auroville in general and Auromodel in particular? Is it to serve the community or to be a true servitor of the Divine Consciousness?
        The purpose of life in Auromodel is to learn to live in Auroville, to make all the experiments necessary for learning to live in Auroville.
        We want to find a way for the community to live for the Divine.
        Each individual has his own way but the group community should find a way to suit everyone.
