A. The inspiration for Auroville arose in the Sri Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry, when the Sri Aurobindo Society took a proposal to the Mother to start an ideal township devoted to an experiment in human unity, along the lines first mentioned in the teachings of Sri Aurobindo. On the whole, Auroville enjoys a good relationship with the Ashram. Legally and practically the Ashram and Auroville are separate entities, separated geographically by a distance of approx 10 kms, the former being in Pondicherry and the latter for the greater part in Tamil Nadu on an inland plateau further up the coast.
