Memorial Day of 'Mother' of Aurobindo Ashram observed

A large number of people from different parts of the country thronged the Aurobindo Ashram here today on the occasion of the 45th Memorial Day of The Mother of the Ashram.
The Mother (Mira Alfasa) was spiritual coordinator of Aurobindo, a philosopher and champion of integral yoga.
Aurobindo established the Ashram in 1926.
People made a beeline to the Ashram from the morning and sat in meditation before the 'samadhis' (memorials) of Aurobindo and the Mother.
The visitors were also permitted to visit their chambers to offer homage.
While Aurobindo passed away on December 5, 1950, the Mother breathed her last on November 17, 1973.
