Celebration of Evolution
To mark the Navratri nine day festival of Goddess Durga, the Tamil Heritage Centre held its annual exhibition on evolution at Ilaignarkal Education Centre. In an interesting conversation, Anand tells us that they would like to involve the next generation and pass the on the knowledge of the evolution theory in Hindu culture which says – from one single cell, one seed … to God level. On display are hundreds of figurines, mostly collected over the years and made by local artisans. The annual exhibition is visited by over 1000 students of Auroville and bio-region schools.
