I never will forget my Meditations at Matrimandir. It is like sitting in the Home we all originally came from....a feeling of becoming ONE with Divine Love. If you are ever in Auroville; May you look beyond the Human experience of Auroville, close your eyes and you will feel The Mothers caring,loving vibration enveloping you and your journey. If you look only from your mind the only thing you will see is hardship, human struggle and imperfection. To say it in Mothers words: "Life is meant for seeking the Divine. Life is realized when finding the Divine." Nobody said its easy or what your human mind thinks is paradise or utopia. Struggle and imperfection is part of the process. Eternal gratitude to every Soul who donated heart and a helping hand to help build Matrimandir and Auroville.
I've been to Pondi and Auroville twice..... sure we can make all sorts of judgements but I think these people generally should be admired. I wish I had been in a position to stay there in the 70's or even 80's.... they have worked through a lot of problems and achieved a huge amount..... nothing is perfect. But can't we rejoice in a place that has tried to live up to it's idealistic ideals......
I have been there innumerable times. Have also lived there for long periods. It can be a tough life . Only those meant for it can be there. Sometimes the physical discomfort can be daunting.
I heard about Auroville whilst I was living and working in SW China about 3 years ago from a well travelled, a worldly character, he lit a spark of curiosity in my heart. I have worked for Biodynamic farms under the Athroposophical teachings and I was wondering if anyone could actually introduce Auroville to me, anyone that has actaully been there or lives there? I was thinking of going to volunteer. Many thanks.
Besides the fact the 'resource' here is still 'labor', where in the venus project the resource is self-awareness and developement. Auroville will still need money and funding, something the Venus project idea totally rejects. Also in the Venus Project it's all about automisation and abundance to keep people in an evolving state of mind. Very different... and actually the Venus Project is the best idea, but it needs a worldwide collapse of the financial and political worlds for it to work.
I think it's amazing what they are doing there, I will really like to visit auroville and see how it's before comment without knowledge. I love the idea of living in peace with each other. Without politics judgements and without this much of "possessions feeling" that we are so much used to have in the westerners countries.
I am interested in living there but just for a few weeks and not full time. Is it possible? I want a break from the usual rat race of corporate metropolitan life and relax and be in a community like this. I am an Indian.
It seems everything in this world is just experimental. What's the newest old way? We all have the choice of making the best of where ever we are...or not. This community is a cool learning project. (I think all communities are potentially cool learning projects in one way or another.)
@Ruksana Kossari except the venus project is all talk and no action. Its fun to draw fancy city blueprints and speculate on the what ifs, but its another thing to make it a reality. I agree with you tho. I would like to see nothing more.
such a lonely place! 😭😭😭 ..hugeSORRY..but i could discern sadness in the eyes of those being interviewed here--unlike in the very first video i'd watch of this years ago..where everybody seemed sooo alive!!!
for a society without money it seems like a company the incense one, and stuff like this has helped their asses immensly. ironical isn't it. industry for anrchy or what?
The narrator tells at 4:02 that The Mother was wife of Sri Aurobindo which is not correct they both are not married to each other. Request to change it.
rangarao malisetty why ? I had no idea that calling people Tamil workers was in any way whatsoever and if you called them “the locals « I would have assumed they were Aurovillians .I do not say this to criticise you in any way,I just want to know !

Hi, I was man handled and threaten to kill by auroville restaurant waiters, for protesting against there misbehavior to customers at the restaurant . Incident happen at 11the Saturday February 2017, since i was form another state the waiters told i will be killed if a spoke against them . The restaurant waiters where misbehaving to most of the customers . They even threat the taxi drivers to take us back or else we will be killed, (since its there place ), and auto drivers charged more because of the incidence and they didn't fulled the places the promised us to take . The next morning the Loge manger where we stayed also threaten us and made us to checkout earlier because they got some new customers . Who ever planing to go to auroville universal city, please dont go there . Its not a safe place, people are uncivilized and criminals
JOHN c so the place is not what like what they claim ?? I already doubted dude. There's a lot of hidden truth about this place and it is most likely fucked up .
its hardly a paradise. more like an erstwhile colonial haven for tourists and spiritual refugees from the west. and some thousands of tamil arts * craft sellers ... insiders and elite as usual get better access into the cult like facets of Auroville.
infinitecanadian Before you assume so many wrong things. Ive been to Pondicherry and once to Auroville. Im middle class at best. Yet more aware about my country than an "infinite Canadian" ... My views are reflected by facts and shared by many people. Im guessing your the one "butthurt" at the expose of the litany of spirituality and elite tourism.
Samrat Bee Excuse me, but my comment was referring to the other guy who told you to shut the fuck up. RUclips often does not label who a comment is being replied to.
Great insight Pablo. How will seniors be cared for when they can no longer able to work at Auroville? Do they pay into welfare for seniors or have retirement centers on site?
This place is free from money , govt.. it can be free if the community wants .. See India's sentinel island is banned many years ago since 1958 I think.. where u may know what Britain other countries does with them..they might disturb them.. So it's a choice of the people's The place is made for it..
Communism requires the abandonment of currency, that's just one of the reason it's never been tried. It differs in that communism also requires a democracy, whereas this kind of community works more like a mixture of anarchy, except it has rules for inclusion and exile.
With glowing skin and bright eves ? You cannot see their bones like the Nazi camps.They keep to a vegetarian diet which certainly helps to limit the flab.It is just healthy outside work ,fresh sir,good food !I applaud your concern,though!
Yes good question! Instead the (witch) mother promotes the lie which is evolution and selfishness (meditation/enlightenment) as just another way to deceive/mislead people.
It's too hippie. I'm quite a liberal person but a place like this withoit competition, would not give rise to any development. On the other hand, very capitalistic and religious have their own set of problems. Maybe, a hybrid between communisms and capitalism would work.
The "musical water" made me laugh! Absolutely no scientific basis for that at all. Sounds like the "memory of water" in homeopathy or the Kangen alkaline water in Japan. Quackery at its best!
I'm pretty sure that it is a fucked up place. If anybody could live there in harmony, eat good food in free of cost then this place would be overpopulated already. Who wouldn't go there. Think about it for fuck sake guys. Its a corporation. Not all are allowed to live there. And one must pay some good figure and contribute a lot to become the resident of this place for sure
VIDEO TUTORIAL This is not what it looks like and what they are trying to show here. I have never been there. But i'm still sure about it. There must be some conditions and requirements to be able to live there and which definately any average, not highly educated and not fuckin' rich person like me can't make it.. I don't know about you. You gotta ask yourself. These all whites in the video, most of them are very rich french, aussies, americans..
No one has a glowing face or a good looking.. seems dull bcz they don't have salvation ... Turn back to God ... He is he Redeemer , died for us to give the glory of God... He is Jesus Christ... Spell his name see your face find the changes happend on your soul in mirror... God bless you all..

I wish I had been in a position to stay there in the 70's or even 80's.... they have worked through a lot of problems and achieved a huge amount..... nothing is perfect.

No. Idealism is top down logic and therefore invalid. Idealism kills. Idealism has killed ~ a billion people.
I'm with you.
@ink800ify Consider that Cro Magnon were bigger, stronger and smarter than modern humans. Search it. ... I agree with most of your comment.
@ink800ify Of course, we humans descended from Cro Magnon. We have been devolving.
I have been there innumerable times. Have also lived there for long periods. It can be a tough life . Only those meant for it can be there. Sometimes the physical discomfort can be daunting.
I came here because of Netflix 'Follow this' episode 'India's Utopia' and I'm not disappointed.
Thanks for the closer look.

When I study in jipmer I always visit the place... Cool..love from Liverpool UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
20:44 when i visit auroville im seeking this dude out. So beautifully articulated!!!!
being an indian this is the first time ive heard of aurovile
me too
your country is obviously too big for you... for a start...
+Shivam Bisht l also
Weird. My mom just received a gift basket today for Easter with Auroville incense and now here I am..
Please be noted that Mother is NOT THE WIFE OF SHRI AUROBINDO SHE WAS THE SPIRITUAL PARTNER.The one and only wife of Shri Aurobindo is Mrinalini Devi.
ahahahahaha you mean they didn't fuck????
@@michskip1 does fucking only happens for married guys

Fun Kai Any Updates? Have you volunteered yet?
Visiting Pondy is much cheaper than western tourist spots . Plan a leave and have a look
u made a terrible mistake at 4:02 when u said that the mother is the " wife " of sri aurobindo. thats a huge mistake.
I was about to mention the same....
This seems like the infant stage of a Resource Based Economy envisioned by The Venus Project and The Zeitgeist Movement. A low tech version.
Besides the fact the 'resource' here is still 'labor', where in the venus project the resource is self-awareness and developement.
Auroville will still need money and funding, something the Venus project idea totally rejects.

yes, its possible, just look up their website
LolGuy - Go to New Zealand. That place is the nearest thing to Heaven. This Auroville is yet more New age brainwashing Pigswill.
Did you managed to live there for q week?
It seems everything in this world is just experimental. What's the newest old way? We all have the choice of making the best of where ever we are...or not.
This community is a cool learning project.
(I think all communities are potentially cool learning projects in one way or another.)
Excellent.
If these people joined together with the venus project and started moving things along to get rid of currency all together. Things would move faster.
It's very different then the Venus project though...
@Ruksana Kossari except the venus project is all talk and no action. Its fun to draw fancy city blueprints and speculate on the what ifs, but its another thing to make it a reality. I agree with you tho. I would like to see nothing more.
was there in 07 from a school trip, little did i know about the actual world and how the cult is a thing.
such a lonely place! 😭😭😭
..hugeSORRY..but i could discern sadness in the eyes of those being interviewed here--unlike in the very first video i'd watch of this years ago..where everybody seemed sooo alive!!!
I ADMIRE THIS
Mirra Alfassa wasn't Sri Aurobindo's wife but a partner in the spiritual project.
It is a wonderful idea, there is a lot to be done.
Seems like they had too much of capitalism the last night and are now stuck in a rehab
I admire these ppls really great and hard working! Wish we all lived in such society. Not our greedy money and pwr crazy world.
The first train shot you showed is not from Auroville. Its from Bombay.
Auroville: The Hipster's Paradise
I want to live there
You can !
go x 1 year. after my be if you are in right feeling. you will be acepted
for a society without money it seems like a company the incense one, and stuff like this has helped their asses immensly. ironical isn't it. industry for anrchy or what?
I hope some day I could be there

where did you get this information? did you take care to validate it?
But money is a factor here,nice place,it is look like as a also cool place to live compare than other part of india,,
Do not call them the “Tamil workers” ... better call them “the locals”.

JOHN c so the place is not what like what they claim ?? I already doubted dude. There's a lot of hidden truth about this place and it is most likely fucked up .
how to come and start living there? do you need any inventor there?
Auroville be blessed!
bahoot achaa gaon hai maine dekha
its hardly a paradise. more like an erstwhile colonial haven for tourists and spiritual refugees from the west. and some thousands of tamil arts * craft sellers ... insiders and elite as usual get better access into the cult like facets of Auroville.
shut the fuck up idiot
Iggy Tubmen Thats quiet fascistic. to tell someone to shut the fuck up. especially when the truth and some facts are being presented.
He's just one of many butthurt high-income Indians who haven't even set foot in one of their famous slums.

What is the difference between this an communism?
Great insight Pablo. How will seniors be cared for when they can no longer able to work at Auroville?
Do they pay into welfare for seniors or have retirement centers on site?
people are here fre
is there weed in auroville?
idk, but its illegal in India, slap on the wrist tho. They do have Bhang. Look it up, it sounds interesting
abe amaya you can get any where in India. It's illegal but not really.
Was just about to ask the same question .
yes it illegal but can smoke openly.....
Vivek Kumar that doesn't make any sense...
That Aviram guy looks like GG Allin, without the dog collar.
Indian govt. should have a budget for auroville..otherwise its collapse 😡😡
its a great place for visitors. i wont judge those pipo bt i hope we wont have another Jonestown
Nothing is free, the gov't would never allow such a community w/ out some form of compensation. Who is the boss, what does he want you to believe?
This place is free from money , govt.. it can be free if the community wants ..
See India's sentinel island is banned many years ago since 1958 I think.. where u may know what Britain other countries does with them..they might disturb them..
So it's a choice of the people's
The place is made for it..
Hippies who had money using capitalism
Sounds like communism, no ? What's the difference ?
Communists are political and use money
Communism requires the abandonment of currency, that's just one of the reason it's never been tried.
It differs in that communism also requires a democracy, whereas this kind of community works more like a mixture of anarchy, except it has rules for inclusion and exile.
This remains me of (LOST)
so they have to make money too
Why not make this place like the Venus project
You have to stop this promotion of the sect of Auroville.
they all look like they are starving
well, look again some seems to be quite "comfortable" in their life ie. the financial director and few other hipster type guys...
With glowing skin and bright eves ? You cannot see their bones like the Nazi camps.They keep to a vegetarian diet which certainly helps to limit the flab.It is just healthy outside work ,fresh sir,good food !I applaud your concern,though!
MIRA ALFASSA was AUROBINDO''s Disciple, not WIFE. This is inexcusable. You make an entire documentary of a place and get the fundamentals wrong.
mirra alfassa is not the wife of Shri Aurobindo!

This model has proven to be a failure. The next step needs to be taken. I may take it into consideration.
My opinion. I'm free to have that.
MegaSmk this isn't a debate. Take the model and reproduce it. Then come back and tell how successful it is.
I see a lot more tamil work and a sort of colonization in a new form.
Concrete homes should not belong to auroville.
I don't understand . Where is God ?
In your mind
Where S/He's always been: everywhere, in everything
Yes good question! Instead the (witch) mother promotes the lie which is evolution and selfishness (meditation/enlightenment) as just another way to deceive/mislead people.
Thumbs up if you never knew that India has a French territory .
yeap and it's been going down since then... used to be a really nice town. NOTE that this is NOT a nostalgic colonialist comment just sad reality...
Amazing.if marx had been here there would have been no das kapital and would not have been communism.a pity they don't take new entratnts
