Savitri Bhavan, a centre for spiritual education 

Savitribhavan
Savitribhavan
Savitri Bhavan in Auroville is a centre dedicated to fostering a living sense of Human Unity through spiritual education based on the vision and teachings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. The central focus is Sri Aurobindo’s mantric epic Savitri : a legend and a symbol, which the Mother has called ‘The supreme revelation of Sri Aurobindo’s vision’.

Savitri Bhavan aims to gather and create, to house and make available all kinds of materials and activities that will foster a deeper appreciation of Savitri, of the lives, work and vision of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, and of the aims and ideals of Auroville, in a space that breathes the atmosphere of Savitri.

Regular Programmes

A regular daily programme of classes, exhibitions, musical events, guest lectures and film shows is open to the interested general public, as well as workshops, retreats and orientation sessions. There is also a Picture Gallery, Reading Room and Digital Library offering individual computer access to a collection of audio and video recordings and documents relating to Savitri, the lives, work and teachings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, and the Aims and Ideals of Auroville. Office, Exhibitions and Information Section are open Mon to Sat 9am-5pm, and events are also held in the evenings and on Sundays.

Vision

The realisation of the Yoga of Knowledge is when one feels that one lives in the wideness of something silent, featureless and universal (called the Self) and all else is seen as only forms and names; the Self is real, nothing else.
