Harvest holiday in Auroville
Hello,
my first blog to share my travel to Auroville.
An utopic city, born from the idea of the Mother, after the death of sri Aurobindo; utopic because of the difficulties with Indian burocracy and for the idea to create a community of peaple from all arund the world.
Auroville ist 2 hours from Chennai, and far away from "normal" India!
I slept by Monica, an italian friend who teaches Yoga in Auroville , a beautiful house in the middle of the forest.
A paradise, where you can find organic food, energized water and conscious products and producers!!!
The most stron experience was to meditate inside the matrimandir, a bid Golf Ball (!!!) in the mjiddle of a beautiful garden; inside everything is on marble and the maditation hall it´s dark with a small ray of sun that come inside from above passing through a big glass ball and spreading the llight.....and the silence there is so intense like I ´ve experienced in few places in the world.

More from me soon
greetings from
Bed and Breakfast Venice
