The spark



Today I was talking to Gerard, a friend of mine, who has been in Auroville ever since it began 45 years ago. We were talking about the present situation as we saw it and lamenting about some of the things going on here.

Then Gerard smiled (and he has a very big smile) and said that after all these years the best he thinks he has achieved is to kindle a spark of light inside himself and to create a farm. He said he hoped that was enough and as he said it I saw the spark of light under his chin.


I hope that I will manage a spark of light as well!
