More relevant than ever: How will people live together peacefully and in harmony with themselves and the environment in the future? This book offers a unique insight into the fascinating project Auroville, supported by UNESCO and the Indian government. The author’s conversations with people living in Auroville, combined with his personal experiences and observations, bring this place very close to the reader. A society of the future? Can a society function without police, money, political parties, and religions? In a small town in South India, a unique experiment has been taking place for almost fifty years. Its intention: to free humanity from its dismal state of destructiveness by developing a higher consciousness. The goal: a life of maximum personal responsibility as the only and perhaps last resort for humanity and nature. Approximately 2,500 people.
