[1]People from across the country thronged the Sri Aurobindo Ashram here on Wednesday and offered prayers on the occasion of the 134th 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.
The Ashram was founded in 1926. Sri Aurobindo passed away in 1950 while the Mother breathed her last in 1973.
The Mother (Mira Alfassa) founded Aurobindo International Centre of Education in 1952 and the international township of Auroville, 10 km from here, in 1968.
