People from all over the country thronged Sri Aurobindo Ashram here today and offered prayers on the occasion of the 136th birth anniversary of 'The Mother'.
They later participated in a mass meditation around the samadhis of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo, her spiritual mentor.
They also visited the rooms where Sri Aurobindo and the Mother stayed, ashram sources said.
