'Aurobindonian' meetings in Asia, Europe and USA
During the summer season of 2000, several hundreds
of people associated with Auroville or Ashram have gathered in
respectively India, Europe and USA to honour and celebrate their
connectedness in the advanced vision and path of Sri Aurobindo
and The Mother. While knowing that other such meetings have
taken place as well, we offer here some glimpses of the AIM, AUM

shared moments - the participants enjoyed to:
